Pls don't join this company and ruin your career.

Pros:
1) Food credit - Rs 120 daily and Unlimited caffeine
2) Decent comprehensive insurance covering your parents / elders just like any other bank / GCC on the street
3) A good amount of holidays but the ability to exercise purely depends on your manager, team & work load

Cons:
1) Culturally very worst org. Managers put you on the grill readily when presented with an opportunity. Frankly all are bosses and there no leaders. All are busy in saving their own asses at any cost. Be prepared for a lot of culture shocks.
2) Undergoing a lot of transformation in the name of the Platform Operating model. Be prepared to redo, undo, rework, etc and busy burning the midnight oil.
3) Lateral joiners are highly vulnerable to layoffs. I have seen folks laid off in 6 to 8 months of joining. So if you are ok to face layoffs on any random day for none of your issues join this org.
4) Work from office policy - 4 Days / week from Jan 2026 if you are joining in India. Soon they will port to 5 days WFO. No one can save you if you fall short of days in the office.
5) No company transport for VPR & above or provided at an exorbitant cost.
6) Bonuses & hikes sucks most of the time. So the only time you get stuff is at the time you join. Post which it is mediocre or nothing.
