The policies in place are only for certain Geos and departments. At the end of the day if you happen to be in backend functions in Asia, you can count on it that you have found yourself in the middle of the ocean with no one to support you. Manager's attitude is all the bad cliche's you can imagine. We look at other people in the company who are in mainstream functions going home at 5;30 , but for us its only half day. HR is oblivious to all this or they turn a blind eye is anybody's guess. Every single day we work overtime without being paid any benefits for it.

PTO Policy is one of the worst I've ever experienced. It's true that every 4 years we are allowed a 6 week sabbatical, but I would rather just have more PTO accrued each year. We are given 12 days of vacation time per year but expected to use 3 of them in July during a mandatory vacation week, leaving us with just 9 days per year off. That is not enough, especially compared to other tech companies in the industry. Many employees are forced to take unpaid days off if they need to take more than what we are allotted, and losing one or two days of pay is incredibly hard.
