Software Engineer • Current Employee
Pros: 1. Adopts latest technologies much faster than other big corporates.
2. Good salary hikes, additional performance-based bonus above CTC, good rewards, and recognition system.
3. Allows employees to transfer to other departments with no manager approval required after 12 months working in one department.
4. Plenty of leave options: mandatory 2 weeks of continuous leave per year and an optional 6-month sabbatical after 5 years of continuous service.
5. Good learning options: access to Safari, Coursera, LinkedIn Learning, etc. Regularly holds hackathons and coding competitions with good prizes.
Cons: 1. Visibility and opportunities vary from department to department. This is not linked with the performance of the department in terms of profit provided to the company.
2. Very limited travel opportunities. Few people travel multiple times, while others are not given any chance.
3. Core functionalities are still running on old legacy systems, making integration with newer applications a nightmare. Very little effort is put into modernizing those systems.
4. Terrible facilities in both Hyderabad and Pune offices.
* LCC Hyderabad campus has limited parking – only 4 days a week, resulting in illegal parking on the narrow road to the office.
* Inadequate lifts in the Pune office.
* Poor and expensive food in canteens.
Management turns a blind eye to these issues.
