Free food, but collaboration challenges and cultural gaps exist
Pros
Free food Free cab no other benifits

There appears to be a gap in technical knowledge and understanding among some U.S.-based counterparts, which can make collaboration challenging. HR decisions and evaluations seem to rely heavily on feedback from U.S.-based stakeholders, with limited consideration of perspectives from the India team. The organizational culture is strongly influenced by a traditional tire manufacturing mindset, which may not fully align with the needs of a modern global technology environment. At times, the India GCC team feels that its contributions and expertise are not recognized on an equal footing with teams in other regions. There is a perception among some team members that interactions between the U.S. and India teams could be more collaborative, respectful, and balanced. Difficult to reach New Site lead
