Pros

Average increments annually are between 7-10% Work culture feels service based. Indian team members are treated as service providers by the team's located across Europe/US for example. Expectations of weekend support/ late night support etc. is always from people working from Indian timezone.

Cons

No exposure to higher management. Only your direct reporting manager is accessible. No proper HR department for your team. HR representatives are accessible via a chatbot. So if there is a sensitive issue that you may need to confide into your project/department HR , there is no process around it.

Pros

At this point? None honestly.

Cons

They did a complete 180 since I got hired. Came in as remote during COVID and now that they forced most people back to the office, they made us 3rd class citizens in the company. Can't get a raise, a promotion, any spiffs or even the same contests that the people in the office do. This company does not keep promises and has been constantly doing workforce reductions ever year like clockwork for 4 years now. The COO Jeff Clarke is an absolute clown as well, you have to go into the office dressed as business casual, but this guy goes to One Dell World in undersized lame t-shirts every year. Hypocrisy at all levels of this company. Just looking for a good opportunity and I am out, after talking to my co workers I feel like 70-80% feel the same. The tools also suck and are down half the time as well.
