Pros

My personal team and manager were good, but that's about it.

Cons

1. No strategy. Zero. I tried to ask leadership about direction and it was slow to come and then vague. When asking for business justification for changes, my internal clients would go over my head. 2. They tolerate bullying. One individual I know was bullied. HR confirmed that the individual had a history of doing it and was warned, but they are still there and still bullying. The person they bullied is gone. 3. Lots of recent layoffs. I think there have been 5 rounds in the last 1.5 years. 4. Low pay, not the best benefits. Usually if the pay is low, the benefits are better. Not the case here.

Pros

Excellent people to work around. HR policies and HR in India are pathetic to work with.

Cons

HR policies and HR in India are pathetic to work with. Company will grow at 7-10% but employee salaries raises are at 0-1%
