Pros

- Work life balance - Good brand value

Cons

- Discrimination against outsiders - More use of local language at office rather than English - cannot trust management, will lie to you - bad politics - slow promotion, and promotions don't necessarily mean Big growth in salary - you would expect it's a big company with lot of revenue but management will always cut corners and save money at your cost, your salary will not be corrected if it is below your market rate or if it is below the benchmark in your team. - Misleading job offers, they can change your team or your work or your shift after you join. They can change your position after you join. This is cheating as we join a company after careful consideration of other alternatives. They will use every loophole in the game to do that. Position and team can be inconsistent in your payslip just so that they don't have to give you salary correction. If you are a non Bengali outsider, do not make the decision of joining this company. Try other cosmopolitan cities.

Pros

Good, smart colleagues in other offices.

Cons

At times, decisions appeared to prioritize individual objectives over team needs, which affected collaboration and morale. Greater consideration of team perspectives and shared goals would help build trust and engagement. I observed instances where expectations communicated to the team were not consistently reflected in leadership actions. Greater consistency between stated values and day-to-day decisions would strengthen credibility and confidence within the team.
