Pros

The company frequently does transformation, thus they ask people to leave organisation on immediate notice and hire new people, this is frequent, also half of the organisation is sold to Honeywell. these initiative are focused on headcount optimization rather than employee development or business growth. Thus there is a culture of uncertainty & insecurity exists always. One of the most frustrating aspects is the lack of internal mobility. Competent and experienced employees are often overlooked for internal opportunities, while external hiring is prioritized. No parity in salaries, designation and knowledge is not valued. Salary increments remain single digit despite rising expectations and workloads, not even as per market inflation.

Cons

No job stability or growth, no promotion policy

Salaries are above average Very smart and hard working colleagues

Cons

Toxic culture that tolerates harassment; Clueless leadership unable to make decisions and communicate them clearly; Ever changing strategy, impossible to accomplish anything as leaders are unable to make up their minds; Lots of positive and flashy announcements for investor but the inside is a mess and there is no communication with employees, you find out people are getting fired in the corridors; No growth perspective, most people are just sitting and waiting to get fired; Org structure changes every 2 months;
