Heyy there fellow fishes, I wanted to get an idea about the frequency and range of appraisals which happen at Fractal . And how good of a company it is in terms of growth, work-life balance and work culture in general ?

Work life balance, learning and growth is generally very high at Fractal. 5% project does demand extra hours and efforts. But that would be like 2 months in one year.. Also, cultural values are very high. My personal experience

like

Appraisals happen once a year generally but there are two cycles for being eligible for promotions when you also get a certain hike depending on the grade change and corresponding eligibility.

WLB varies from project to project, a lot depends on the manager and the kind of expectations they set for everyone. But in case you are stuck working for a client in a difficult time zone expect odd hours for calls. Your workday shifts accordingly. Growth too is dependent on your manager and team. If your work gets noticed and you’re in the radar, it’s better (as expected).

In general Fractal culture is quite good and one of the key reasons behind people staying back in the organization. There is flexibility especially in terms of working from home (that a lot of companies are taking away now).
