Pros

Work-life balance is great. Flexible working arrangements are available occasionally.

Cons

Company culture seems to be deteriorating over months. The bottom 5% are penalized regardless of whether they are good.

Cost cutting results in employee welfare funds being slashed.

Salary is low, increments are laughable, and promotions are slow. You are given extra scope of work or even hold more than one portfolio/scope of work, and the salary does not reflect it.

Technical roles are measured by sales deliverables for salary increment or promotion, which makes no sense. A former I.T. company that seems to be shifting into becoming a sales company.

Advice to Management

Rethink your approach in appreciating and handling technical staff in a technical company. You are putting too much emphasis on sales and are sidelining your technical staff. You are running a technical company like a sales office.
