Pros

Good training facility Good Infrastructure NRN yes Good place to start your career but make sure you leave within a year

Cons

Bad working environment Powered by certification, Driven by policies Management does not know how to control 1lac people so they randomly make some policies and try it out on employees Certification - 2 certification per year and if you do not complete them, no pay hike, no promotion. Does not matter even if u r high performer...Its driven by certification 9.25 hr per day - u need to stay minium 9.25 hr per day in office, even though u don't have any wrk, even you are on bench...they say that 8 per day is for work, 1.25 if for your lunch and breakfast... time spent in toilet is 10 min, 20 min for sutta, 30 min in personal stuff, 1 hr in gossiping...so in future they might ask you to work for 11.25 hrs per day In one line - A place full of crap policies

Pros

My overall impression of the company is positive. The compensation and benefits seem fair and supportive, and the company appears to offer good career growth opportunities for employees who want to learn and advance. In terms of culture and values, it comes across as a professional, respectful, and collaborative environment where people are encouraged to contribute and develop.

Cons

I did not notice any major concerns, but like any large organization, there is always room to further improve internal communication and clarity around career advancement.
