Pros

My reviews are only for Essilor India : You get to learn a lot You can grow t even if you start from a low level. Good opportunities for new comers.

Cons

A lot of office politics Exploitation of new comers A few people in higher management play favorites Very low salaries even for people with more than 10 years experience. Again a lot of office politics and favoritism based on language Harassment of some employees especially women mostly by other women in the organization Your HR team is well below average.
