Pros

If you are reading this and if you are an aspiring employee of this company; take every word of caution outlined below, VERY seriously. This way you won’t at least regret later after joining the company. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I worked there as a Senior Executive with the corporate team led by Bishnupriya Narayan for close to 1.5 years. This company is a trap and promotes nothing but employee exploitation to the highest possible order. I could not think of a single positive characteristic of the company barring a perceived sense of flatness in terms of organization hierarchy. So, unless you want to make a career-limiting move or have no other option but to go ahead with this company go ahead and join this. Otherwise please avoid making this biggest mistake of joining this company. - A perceived sense of being a part of “flat” organization

Cons

- Directionless leadership, no vision, no goal, no mentoring [if you are fresh out of school you will face tremendous amt of challenges, and if you have experience don’t expect to learn anything new here] - High on favoritism and internal politics leading to biased performance evaluation - Very high dependency and bias towards org loyalists – people who are technically working there for more than 3-4 years and are somehow stuck here – They will get all the mileage no matter how hard or how well you do your work - Poor quality clientele (with MSL; good clients are either with 2020 or with MSL consumer) barring these 2 clients – Coke and LIXIL. - Extremely poor account management and no focus on quality & project management and resource optimization - Extremely poor client handling and expectation setting - Ridiculously inefficient and subpar senior management and leadership – leading to too much dependency on executives and senior executives and even Management associates. - No organizational processes, no structure in place - Very high micro-management - Ridiculously inefficient workflow management leading to an absurd amount of overtimes and burn-outs for every individual (expect to give at least 12 hrs on an avg daily since they optimize revenue by compromising on resource headcount)
