Siemens

1. Work culture is good, with no excessive workload and a good work-life balance. This can differ from team to team.

2. The company takes good care of its employees.

3. There are flexible timings and no time monitoring.

1. It's not necessary that if a company is good, then all employees are good. Here, employees means the people that we are working with.

2. Because of bad colleagues, i.e., seniors and managers, one may think of switching jobs.

3. The annual hike is not good.

4. Too much money is wasted on technical trainings. I said 'waste' money because the trainers are not that worthy. Instead, ask your employees to take online trainings whenever required.

Please stop wasting money on induction. Instead, you can pay that amount to a new joiner as a joining bonus. The things you tell us in induction are again almost all things we have to repeat through online trainings.

Most importantly, take and consider feedback from junior-level employees about their seniors, as not all seniors are good with their skills.

I request reporting managers to have one-on-one meetings with each and every team member at least once a month. This is something important that I found missing. My manager never had this kind of discussion with me. We only had one-to-one meetings for our performance evaluations, which was hardly two or three times a year.
