Pros

1. No work. 2. Get salary till the unit is closed down in few months. 3. Prominence based on skin color and not on meritocracy.

Cons

1. Excellent platform to forget SAP skills with no access to systems, no work. 2. What junk work you have to do is decided by the so called Solution Architect whose junk work is in turn decided by the vendors. 3. Clueless leadership trying to justify their salary based on their experience in website development. 4. Toxic environment encouraged by the senior managers to save their own jobs. 5. Regional politics at the peak with skin color given prominence. 6. Hiring is done with the intention to increase headcount to show to the government without any thought to work intake. 7. Two years no work for SAP functional. 8. Two years, small bits of work SAP technical.

Challenging... not in a positive way

Pros

Pretty good benefits, big name

Cons

There is no investment in you as an employee. They can leave you in a niche for years without caring about your growth. There’s a large culture of stagnation and “we’ve always done it this way”. No real innovation happens. Another really glaring problem is the fact that they’ll never let you go, no matter how terrible of an employee you are. You can be a parasite who contributes nothing and still be on the payroll as long as you keep your head down. There’s no long term vision. Upper management expects you to get things done but there’s not a culture of planning for the future so people’s jobs are less cluttered and less about fire fighting. Instead, there’s constant finger pointing and knee jerk reactions to problems that can be solved if leadership would only put the initial investment to implement technology or training that will contribute to long term growth and not just band-aids. It is truly a shame that a company with such a magnificent legacy is run this way.

Poor work culture in India

Pros

No Pros to speak about. For an organisation of this stature, processes are ancient and people have a bad attitude.

Cons

Unreasonable timelines from Management. Bureaucratic processes that take time but employees are made responsible for outcomes that take long because of inefficient processes. No work life balance for support functions. Poor planning by management. Work is not uniformly distributed in teams and certain team members are overloaded and work 12+ hours and some team members work less than 8. No respect for individuals. Certain people are treated very poorly. Leaders yell and speak harshly to team members and it’s a constantly stressful environment.
