Pros

A company with basic facilities like PF, Health insurance etc

Cons

1. There are almost no in house projects. It outsources it's resources to client side and gets the commission. 2. There is no salary normalization concept. If you continue then you will loose your market value. Example, if you have experience of 10 yrs... you might be getting compensation of a resource of 5 yrs. 3. Lots of marketing and show up for employee benefit but no really e.g. one of the campaign says certification program; however there is no fee reduction or sharing by company... all the expenses will be born by employee but company will take the credit.

Pros

Good place to start a career and gain experience. Managers are available if needed, but hands-off if not.

Cons

Pay is OK, not great. The level of responsibility depends on the firm you are contracted out to. It's a launchpad, keep your skills sharp and don't get complacent

Pros

The company is already shifting from services to products and platforms business, with the CEO driving the change directly. This transition is visible and is steep. The upside to this transformation is the company already creating meaningful opportunities for people to grow new skills and take on more strategic and value-added work. The key is to lean in and make full use of the resources available, including client universities, hack-a-thons, ideathons, and skill transformation programs, to stay ahead. For internal talent, the opportunities in product, platform development, and consulting are abundant, across both existing offerings and new solutions.

Cons

the organization is going through a painful transition unlike anything it has experienced in its 26-year history; while this change is necessary to win in the market, stronger support through the transition is an area where the company can improve and focus.

Thank you for such a thoughtful perspective. It’s encouraging to hear that the shift toward a product and platform-led organization is visible and creating meaningful opportunities for our USsociates to build new skills and take on more strategic work. Enabling this kind of growth is a key priority for us, and we’re glad to see the impact of initiatives like learning programs, ideathons, and hackathons coming through. We also recognize that transitions can be challenging, and providing support through the journey remains a priority. Your point on staying grounded in UST’s values truly resonates. Our values of humanity, humility and integrity continue to guide us as we evolve. We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts.
