Pros

Nothing in a bad team.

Cons

I joined Visa in the PACE team, but the team really sucks.

The so-called super boss (Asheesh Gupta) plays with the system left, right, and center, doing promotions of people who are in his inner circle (especially girls).

He micromanages things to such an extent that we don't have Friday wellness hours, which the whole company gets (we have to justify if we don't come to the office).

He wants us to work late hours even when there is no need.

We don't party, we don't go out, and the work also sucks, but somehow no one does anything about him.

It's so frustrating to see your peers who don't deserve getting promoted, and I can go on giving examples.

I don't want to miss mentioning about two useless managers who are good for nothing, as they don't have any control.

It's actually mental and physical torture to work in his team, and teammates who left had the same opinion; a few actually cried before leaving.

He is a master in demotivating.

He will not give you proper work and then say you are not working, and everything works based on his choice with complete chaos.

He wants to maintain chaos.

If you want a torturous adventure, join this team.

Advice to Management

Do something.
