Pros

Very few , like indian employees get Sodexo , Cab facility , Mumbai work location is good. Some of the expats were good.

Cons

Worst HR ( for any concerns they ask to go to manager, idiots what it employee has problem with manager ) as well no proper explanation on concerns , they take weeks to respond to any query or they don’t revert at all. Company is not bothered why employees are leaving the company and no concerns are asked neither exit interview happens. ( if company doesn’t care why would employee will) Worst management ( make you work in BCP situation during heavy rains and during religious disturbances without caring for your safety, if no cabs provided by transport ask to book ola and come to office instead giving he work to BCP site ) Onshore counterpart feels they are superior , and treat Indians like slaves. No proper training during migration. No canteen , You cannot take lunch or dinner in group ( Feels like school go in a group and come in 30 mins lol ) No OT hours benefits ( and so they make u stretch for non reporting month as well for hours), Force u stretch even if you complete 2 FTE work and somebody else’s work is pending . Person doing more and efficient work is not appreciated and no benefits given. No Reward and recognition. No personal life

Pros

Remote work is (rarely) an option, though the approval process is extremely slow and bureaucratic. There are a few well-meaning colleagues who genuinely try to drive positive change before burning out.

Cons

Onboarding and HR processes are severely broken, taking 11 months to approve remote status and failing to prepare basic equipment for day one. The workplace culture is deeply hostile, with anger and yelling functioning as the default communication style across teams. Leadership turnover is rampant, resulting in constant re-organizations, splintered teams, and a total lack of strategic direction. Role clarity is non-existent, forcing employees to invent their own daily tasks while receiving entirely contradictory instructions. Direct management is completely absent; I went seven months without any contact from my boss before being laid off via a three-word instant message and short call.
