ZF Group reviews

Two groups: People who have been there 20+ years and the newer people. The two do not mix because the people that have been there are stuck in their old ways and not open to progressive ideas - they do not want someone to look better than them. They promote based on how long you stay not how good/motivated you are - so lots of people in management have gone one job beyond their ability. Very demotivating environment.

One issue is the spoken language all around you. I completely understand the global aspect of any business but when the people around you are discussing technical aspects in Hindi that should include you as well, and you can't understand a thing, after a while you discover the concept of marginalization. I'm not talking here about official stuff like meetings or communication, I'm talking about the small talk, the chat from which great ideas can arise . This brings me to the idea of "team". There is no such thing like "team spirit" and real leading and role models. There is no bond or any real connection between people. Robots everywhere. At least this is the feeling you get. You see groups here and there of 2-3 people and maybe you hear someone laughing but usually this is only when interns are involved or people that know each other and are working together for many many years. If you're trying to be part of something, something challenging and alive, look somewhere else. This is that kind of place where the soul goes to die. If you have some skills when you get hired, it's very likely to lose them while working here. When it comes to facilities, the place is a bad joke.
