1. 70% of the crowd has no work-life balance
2. Talks about lot of things like solutions, non-revenue growth, but is a very conservative company and wants profit before investing a penny
3. Lot of dead-wood meaning lot of senior folks just staying around doing no work (fooling around in the name of initiatives) and paining folks around.
4. iRace has done one more pain - they tried to make everybody below 14 years to be billable. Folks who have not worked for 2-3 years are still not going to work, and they will get into billable roles and further increase the load of other junior folks genuinely working in the projects
5. A place where work gets delegated down in the hierarchy. 70% of the Project Managers think they have attained the CXO levels and dont do any work (under the pretext that it is a low-level work for their role).
6. The company created cheap policies and irritated employees during the recession. Seeing the alarming rate of attrition they are easing these policies, stating some rationale like they are doing this based on employee feedback
7. Their certification process is waste of time
8. The crowd is mainly generalists (no cutting edge, business or domain knowledge)
9. They will not spend money on specific tool training. Except for the fresher training, trainings on advance topics and tools are very low quality. Employee is expected to slog and learn on the job (20 hours per day). You are supposed to be an expert without even seeing the tool.
Not a very professional place, and a sweatshop, but what other options do you have in India?
