Pros

Nothing as such for time-being

Cons

- So many directors with different views and thinking, many times just promoting their own wishful thinking. Thinking at top level is "Its their way or the highway" - Yea sayers and headnodders are promoted well, just say yes to everything your manager says - Huge disparity in pay & designation for the same level of experience & designation - Tamil community biased, sons & daughters of existing employees also working for the same company, shows the bias of HR - Everyone wants to conduct a meeting for the smallest thing and the language in meetings is Tamil, no regard whether all the participants understand Tamil or not. Even many employees have clear bias against North Indians - No training plan for the employees - No one is flexible or open to new ideas

Pros

New office building in pipeline. Current one doesn't even have proper air conditioning and washrooms.

Cons

-Don't go by the fake reviews posted on this site. That is being done specifically to bring the average rating up. Recently company policies where changed to make Notice period 3 months(even during probation). And they added a bond of 2 years for employees traveling onsite even for a month. The Notice period is a noose around the neck, which will slowly kill the employee's will to work. - Work timings are 9 hrs by Law. 7 hrs mandatory or half day. - They don't pay much. Hikes are very less. -The management doesn't care about the employees at all. They keep things secretive as if we work for some defense organization. -The HR is worthless, they are not available . If you have issues they say they don't have time. But act like gods. They make policies which will benefit them. -HR rolls out offer with a salary much lower than expected but doesn't think of calling once to discuss things. If you do they don't pick. -People are unhappy and thats a regular discussion on the floor, but there is no one who can help. - 10 years behind on Technologies.
