WORK - Our work has absolutely no value once you step out of this company unless you're a game analyst and again the Analyst work in this company is extremely different from a regular data analyst. So basically, unless you get out of here before it spoils your CV or you get promoted to a much higher role in just less than 5 years, you are really going to waste your time. Because, this experience is equal to null. You won't be able to explain what you did here, it could be called Data Entry too but for games and slightly fancy.
The rules are extremely erratic. The rules of the work format keeps changing almost everyday, worst part is.. the team leads and the manager's are on different pages. They give you conflicting answers if you ask them individually, you follow one of them and the other one denies it. Because of this, many times, there are errors marked against you and all these things go into your work report and will affect your appraisals.
Even though, recently they made the work timings flexible ( We can come and go at anytime ), the new work policies and the work that we keep getting is just so much, this flexibility rule is pretty useless because we always stay in the company for 10 hrs + easily. Some of the employees stay till 10.30 in the night on a regular basis from 9 am and none of them get compensated and working after office is considered as a VIRTUE in this office.
All the rules are mostly only for the juniors, some of the seniors are in the company only because they are in the company from a long time. If a junior misbehaves, then we are given a warning and threatened. But, if a senior does the same or even more, then we have to just understand that they have anger issues and attitude problems and behave like therapists and be the bigger people.
You get quarterly bonuses 2 months after the quarter gets over and to get it, you need to be in the company. According to this logic, nobody will get a bonus for their last 3 months.
Even though, they have robust analytical tools to analyse an employee's performance. The rating they feed into the system is biased depending on how well the employees can worship their leads/managers.
We always wonder, if the CEO is even aware of half of the things that happen here. I am sure, no CEO would back something like this if he knew. In case, he knows but he is encouraging such behavior then god save us.
