Cons
I joined this company expecting to see cutting-edge telecom technology—but instead, I got a delightful trip back to the 90s. Yes, despite being around since 1998, the company proudly clings to its 2G and 3G products. A couple of 4G offerings are thrown in as a “modern” touch, but if you’re dreaming of 5G or any real innovation, keep looking elsewhere. The work environment is truly one-of-a-kind. Imagine trying to focus in an office where the AC is more of a myth than a reality and the lighting is so dim you might actually hurt your eyes if you stare too long. The cafeteria’s resident cockroaches add a certain “charm,” and the coffee machine? It’s not an instant coffee maker but a glorified boiler that brews water and milk separately into a concoction that could easily be mistaken for something unpalatable. For freshers, the welcome party is extra special—a full year as a trainee, which in other companies would be considered an internship. new joiners are treated to a joining kit complete with a diary, pen, and a “fancy” labeled cup. During this period, you’ll get a modest stipend of 30k/month, with absolutely no perks like PF, medical, or gratuity. And don’t even think about a company laptop; you’re on your own for the first year. Oh, and that “market standard” hike? It’s as real as the variable 10% bonus that you can only dream of achieving by somehow working on a non-existent 5G project. Developers, brace yourselves: you’ll be juggling multiple roles—from coding (well, minimal actual development) to testing, support, and even installation. Working with the TQA team feels like navigating a maze of cluelessness, while seniors provide vague requirements with a side of blame-shifting. The age gap between juniors and seniors is a whole other level—think of it as working with your dad, if your dad couldn’t keep up with modern tech. The work hours are non-negotiable too. You must clock in by 9:30 AM and can’t leave before 6 PM, no matter how early you arrive. Expect overtime to be a permanent part of your schedule, on weekdays and weekends alike. On the bright side, the office is conveniently located near a metro station. In summary, if you’re nostalgic for the past and enjoy working in an environment that challenges your patience (and eyesight), this might just be your dream workplace. For everyone else seeking real career growth and decent working conditions, consider looking elsewhere.
