Best Working Environment - Anonymous employee Virtuous Retail Employee Review

Pioneer in creating an institutional platform for retail real estate in South Asia. Professional management, lots of opportunities to grow and learn. Top management has very high integrity which is rare in India. Amazing chance to learn from pioneers themselves.

Working in India can be a challenge. The corporate and retail eco-system is immature and sub standard. India has bright people but they don't want to work hard or challenge themselves. To maintain the high standards set by management, performers have to work hard which is fine, but when management does not weed out non performers regularly, there is loss of morale. Also sometimes management continues to accept mediocre work rather than taking action which harms the overall company.

They started their journey out with the right aspirations many years ago is probably the only pro that can be said at this point, and that's tragic.

Absolutely unpredictable and disastrous management style starting from the top down. They do not respect retail partners, their own team and staff or even investors. Have become the laughing stock of the retail industry and a cautionary tale. They talk a big game with fancy Harvard analogies but none of it translates into real world application or performance which shows in the current state of their shopping malls which resemble ghost centres more than community centres.
