Pros

Great Salary band. Good stock option. Free food. Lots of Gifts in special occasions.

Cons

I joined Informatica after seeing their impressive 4.2-star rating on Glassdoor, but my experience took a downturn with the promotion of a new manager. Unfortunately, his leadership style has been problematic. He engages in micromanagement, disproportionately affecting employees outside his favored geographical region in India. The work environment has deteriorated significantly, with the manager often contacting us after hours and making unreasonable demands. He also publicly mocks employees who don’t agree with him in meetings. Despite the existence of the POSH Act and managerial reviews, these seem ineffective. Under his management, personal and professional life have become non-existent, and there’s little to no opportunity for personal development. Dissent is not tolerated; if you disagree with him, you risk being labeled negatively in front of the team. It’s disheartening to see how one individual’s poor management can overshadow the strengths of a previously reputable organization like Informatica. The hiring of someone without a management degree into a managerial role raises questions about the company’s credibility and decision-making. ** You need to know Telugu in order to work efficiently. In most of the conversation slowly move into Telugu language for English as most of them don't know proper English.

Pros

Worked here for 7 years and i have seen this company go downhill from being one of the best to one to avoid… Work culture and work life balance was good, but after multiple layoff the work pressure and everything has increased.

Cons

Lot of mass layoffs in last 1 years. Bonus put on hold without any notice Layoff done which impacted key resources which has created lot of pressure on others. Maternity leave impacts your promotions and hikes and even get laid off. Company is finding hard to get new business.

Pros

Free food Good pay Work life balance

Cons

Losing out business to their competitors like fivetran, talend, Cliq. Product is redundant with practical needs of the market today. They claim to innovate with fancy slogans but deep down, their huge chunk of revenue comes from On premise products. Huge work pressure on India office staff. The current ceo, Mr. Amit Walia has caused 4 layoffs since 2020 with 2 of them being in 2023 alone. They fire employees based on any unwanted department they work in, not on the basis of performance. It's like a sarkari Naukri for those aged employees who want to do monotonous work without upskilling. Company invests a huge amount of money on sales and marketing, without any tangible growth in revenue.
