1.0
Doesn't Recommend
Pros
  1. More short-term onsite opportunities when compared to other companies (but this also depends on individual teams).
  2. Job safety.
Cons
  1. Worst possible workplace, more like a school environment (need to come to the office at 8 am).

  2. Huge amount of workload.

  3. Spineless managers (A will say that his manager B won't accept; B will say C won't accept; and C says D won't accept this).

  4. No direction on why we are doing some work and what we are doing it for sometimes.

  5. No appreciation for good work.

  6. Just seeing code for 12 hours a day is enough to survive here.

  7. The work we do is assessed by the number of lines in our status report.

Advice to Management

India is not Korea. Give some freedom to Indian managers and HRs.
