Pros

They will not fire you even if you don't work as they need some headcount as target. Guarantee of annual 6% hike without doing any work. Your manager will not know that you are reporting to him. Can do full time gossip and phone call( and HR person will join you with earphone & mobile) without worrying technical person beside you. He will not be able to do anything because, there is no manage to listen such problems.

Cons

You will develop habit of getting free lunch. You can be useless in few years. Capable one will have to work like a dog to compensate 4-5 useless team members with equal salary. Performance is not mapped with salary. Frustrating to see capable people cleaning all the mess created by bad management and that is without proper management and HM Support. No one explains or cares about career in bombardier as HR is full time busy on personal calls and as he works for only money.

Pros

~ hiring process was good. interview and offer given on same day. ~ free lunch started after lot of bad glassdoor reviews. ~ salary offered initially was good

Cons

~ old technologies used and no focus on innovation. ~ everyone works on non programming projects. no good c /c++ /c# product development work except some work in tools team and atp product. ~management has no clue what they want to do. managers do not do anything for people and waste time of employees by suggesting useless ideas. ~ no value of agile process and scrum masters. ~ junior engineers write requirements in some projects and no focus on quality. ~ hr is never available for addressing concerns. ~ over-management by managers without knowing the actual processes. ~no value of senior engineers . senior engineers are always blamed for failures and given bad ratings whereas junior engineers enjoy foreign trips, long tea breaks and get good ratings. ~bad hikes for hardworking people. heard this year there will be even worse hike then before. ~ senior leadership does not listen to anyone except one manager. ~no mnc culture. infrastructure is very bad. ~ framework for promotion is completely missing and promotion is only given to relatives of managers or people who do not have any skill set. ~ even the lifts do not work properly. everyday someone is stuck in the lift. ~ work assignment is not based on skills and done randomly. ~ no proper project planning and all mistakes are hidden for people who are close to senior management. ~ managers have no development plan and strategy for anyone.
