No work life balance

Software technologist i

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The work culture is very good depending on the team. A lot of new learnings.

Cons

No work-life balance. Management is not good, the manager is supporting specific people always. No proper management. A lot of process needs to follow like college, in fact, school is far better than this, and lot of internal politics. A lot of work pressure. No professional managers. There was no proper planning meetings and deadline. etc. There were no proper tools to raise the ticket for any concern, for each thing they had different tools and no support from anyone. Giving more preference to interns.

Worst can be laid off anytime

Software technologist i

Pros

Work life balance depending on project. Sodexo. Nothing much bad here is more than the good.

Cons

Managers are egoistic and rude. You can be laid off anytime. Philips promotes attrition and that too declares mass layoffs. No work at all they simply keep employee engaged in the name of remediation. Layoffs happened in usa. In India also . People here lack at technical competencies. Company job security is poor . Recommend not joining this at all.

My boss is not very good and shows favoritism

Remote services engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The pay is very good, but a lot of time I just want to quit without notice, log off my computer and walk away

Cons

I work for a boss who clearly shows favoritism. She allows her pets to shrug off work, to jump the line in the call queue, so they dont ever have to take calls. And she acknowledges their birthdays with much fanfare, emojis and giffs on teams, while the rest of us, the "hoy paloy" (thats how it makes me feel) never get any recognition.. That is the worst part. Being openly ignored... Nothing makes you feel like you are worthless, than a boss who treats you like you are worthless..
