Pros

.Work Area .Cafeteria .Some of our Colleagues .Number of official holidays are better than other industry peers

Cons

.When onboarded as an IT Consultant, You are treated as an untouchable and asked to work on roles which are in out of scope. .When I was onboarded, I was told I will be working with other managers to formalize the support activities on par with their global team members. Unfortunately, I was made to work on revisioning documentation when my scope was work was stated I will be responsible for the end to end project management. .During my opportunity with the organization, I never got an opportunity to work on what was mentioned in my scope of work. Even when I stepped up and said I would like to bridge the communication challenges between onshore and offshore peers, They brushed aside my feedback and asked me to keep my mouth shut (the manager whom I reported to stated the exact same words) .They always looked down upon me and stated they were paying 5 times my salary to my parent company and I was not fit working for them (While I was just 2 weeks into the work).

Good Pay for the work.

Micromanagers, racists, needed to be in person even though all meetings were handles on teams.
