Cons

Compensation here is notably unfair, with new hires often earning more than tenured employees. Despite years with the company, the salaries of tenured staff can remain stagnant from day 1.

This leads to significant dissatisfaction among tenured employees who feel their efforts and dedication go unappreciated.

The quarterly appraisal is also flawed. Regardless of the effort one puts in, grades may remain consistent (unless you are a manager's favorite).

At times, it seems that currying favor with managers and networking effectively can lead to better grades.

The internal job posting process is equally disheartening. Some individuals get automatically promoted without undergoing the standard interview process. Tenured employees may not even get the chance to progress due to the rigid IJP application criteria.

There are cases of abusive managers towards team members, and some of this has been reported; however, no action has been taken by the company to address this.

Advice to Management

Address the above, or more people will eventually leave.
