Cons

Bad management. Some managers should really be removed from the company. They do a lot of micromanagement, like maintaining Excel for check-in and check-out times. They then use this for your performance, and this will happen only a few months before appraisal. Duo leads are also trying to be smart. They promise you onsite and promotions, and then at the end of the year, they will say there's no budget.

The worst thing to happen is the new performance process. They say that now they don't compare you with other employees, but they still do at each and every level.

Advice to Management

Remove micromanagement and reward and focus on good performance.

Management wants employees to learn all possible technologies available in the market, but with petty salaries. Implement strict skill-based performance as soon as possible.

Create a team to overview performance processes city-wise.

Start anonymous reverse feedback from employees to managers as well.

Take grievances seriously against management, otherwise, all the good employees will leave the company.
