Pros

Nothing to say good about Schindler India. I was an employee at Mumbai HO and my growth has been stopped when I joined this company.

Cons

India Specific: 1. Mental Harassment- Mental harassments and stress will be given by the bosses. And if you go the Management with your issue, no one will listen to you. 2. No credit of work- Bosses will make you do the work and take the credit of your work. You will not be knowing when and how your work has been presented (This is prevailing in all departments at all levels) 3. Salary slabs- At same level a person is earning 20 lakhs and 40 lakhs, you will get higher salary if you do everything as your boss say and keep them happy 4. Boss favourite over talent- Promotion of the employee is directly related to how much your boss favours you. If you are not your boss favorite or if you tell you boss she/he is wrong, then no promotion, no increment, no bonus. 5. Worst Working experience- This company is the worst in my opinion and I have worked with multiple MNCs, but this was the worst company to happen in my life 6 Leaders? What's that?- Self-proclaimed leader of the company is only focusing in building his personal brand on social media. Also, everyone in the top management will show that they are the leader, but they are the just bosses/ managers and they do not know what does leader mean.

Pros

-The pay and benefits are excellent. The benefits are some of the best I have ever seen, but don't make up for the grueling and stressful work.

Cons

-Poor work culture. Being rude to your co-workers is perfectly acceptable. The only thing management cares about is meeting ridiculously high metrics. -Deadlines set by management are incredibly tight and not flexible. You are expected to meet all deadlines no matter what and often have to work overtime and on the weekends. It is not uncommon to work over 12 hours in a day. - Incredibly high turnover rate and minimal training. People leave the company frequently due to the stress. Other employees are then forced to take on their responsibilities with little to no training.
