Pros

Free food and that's it.

Cons

-Hire and Fire is the new norm. They even fired their HR head. -Playing with careers of Freshers by firing them on the basis of a couple of training - Huge bench and low utilization and blaming the people for not getting projects rather than blaming the poor performance of the sales team. -Even the CEO has changed and I think he might have been fired as well by the board members. - Manager is god and the HR people are not neutral. They always favor the manager. They will take the managers feedback from you and then go straight to the manager and tell them all that you said. HR is a sham.

Pros

The company's client centricity is exceptional, with a deeply embedded focus on delivering value, reflected in a strong and loyal client base built on high levels of trust and credibility. There is a significant commitment to AI research and forward looking capabilities, alongside a clear investment in building a people first culture over time. The company is well regarded in the market with a strong foundation for continued growth

Cons

TMT suffers from ineffective leadership at the helm with little visible effort to grow capabilities or drive meaningful outcomes. Exec contribution to growth is largely absent, making the net impact negative. Cultural values are not consistently reflected in day to day execution. It has a pattern of positioning other teams negatively including Growth, Tech, AI, and PA rather than partnering, which creates real friction with them resulting in loss of opportunities. There is genuine talent within the team being held back by leadership that prioritizes internal politics over building real capability, resulting in shallow vertical capabilities. The gap between what the company expects and what leadership enables the team to deliver is significant and consistently unaddressed
