Pros

Meals are good. US and Europe teams are good and kind helpful. Cab service but slow usually take 1 hr for 20 min drive due to other pick ups.

Cons

• Office politics and appeasement matter a lot here over performance for growth. Tea and smoking break with manager matters a lot. No one help you internally and you need to depend upon us team for help. • Officially it is 9 hours in office, but because many projects work with US teams, late night calls are quite common. • Internal systems are slow and inefficient. Even small IT issues take a long time to get resolved. • Work pace is slow because systems are outdated and many employees face technical delays. • Some managers spend only 4–5 hours in the office but expect their team to come early, stay late, and still complete 9 hours.After that you need to login from home for US meetings. • This experience is specifically from the Aladdin Product – Post Trade Engineering Investment Operation in Gurgaon.
