Easy Secure Job, Not Exciting, Average Money, Management should improve

Engineer trainee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Its a stable job and you really have to mess up to be fired. Its decent money for most new tier 3 college grads but not great for the cost of living in Bangalore unless you make some quick promotions (yearly hike is not that great!)

Cons

Its a traditional company and the Indian management, especially hr at my time went extremely stringent with their timings, work culture and salaries. Hope that has changed now. I've also seen some bad decisions (a series of them) being implemented on a country-wide scale that didn't even make sense financially. This might sound like a common problem in India in the IT sector but the expectations set were different, especially with an MNC of this stature and domain.

Hostile Work environment - wages are too low.

Pros

The pros are it is day shift

Cons

No parts is a common theme here. Stuck waiting months at a time. Contracts always late. They pretend to care about safety "EHS" but its all smoke and mirrors. Production Management creating a hostile place to work. Verbal harassment commonplace. Performance evaluations have always been much lower than should be. My position has been purposely kept at a lower rank just to keep my wage lower as I am expected to do the same work of persons above me in higher position. I was promised in "writing" a 10% increase after the first year. I don't know why because Its been almost 5 and I am almost there. REALLY? !! Work life is extremely uncomfortable. No opportunities to move up and wages increases are below cost of living by far. Recommend to apply somewhere else.
