Good company with a questionable work culture
Trial Manager (Former Employee) - Hyderabad, Telangana - January 2, 2022
One's career development, progression and advancement are dependent on how skilful one butters up their functional and operational managers as well as their favourite sidekicks. The favourites are the ones who are regularly awarded even though their contributions are minuscule. Plus your fate during appraisal is in the hands of the Swiss team who are very opinionated. So not everybody is growing in the organization in spite of the hard work he or she puts in.
Pros
The facilities, training and global exposure are good.
Cons
Appreciation and choice of people who grow is not impartial. There is favouritism, bias and regionalism even though it's a global organization.

Ungenunine, manipulative and questionable integrity
Programmer (Former Employee) - India - January 1, 2022
One's career development, progression and advancement is dependent on how skillful one butters up their functional and operational manager as well as their favourite sidekicks. We are encouraged to say no, to voice out, to reach out for support/advice/help but negative feedback will await you from advancing depending on your relationship with managers and their favourite sidekicks.
Pros
Still few genuinely kind and supportive people around, as long as one goes to the absolutely right person
Cons
Manipulative, double standard and aggressive working culture but team/manager dependent.

Internal Politics and External Bias.
Senior Analyst (Former Employee) - Hyderabad, Telangana - November 29, 2021
It's a place where you need to be careful of your superiors. Not everything relies on only performance. Managers here prefer/expect additional nuisance, especially from female employees. Like: expecting coffee breaks, involvement in all the weekend getaways, all sponsored events even if one doesn't prefer it and they name it is as 'collaboration'. Not a decent place when it comes to politics and external bias.
Pros
None. Apart from the hiring event and first few days of orientation for luring the employees
Cons
As mentioned above

Bureaucratic Culture, Yes Sir/Maam Culture
Manager Operations (Former Employee) - Hyderabad, Telangana - September 28, 2021
Extremely poor leadership. You cannot raise your voice against your boss although everyone is encouraged to bring issues. But if you do, you will be at the receiving end and ultimately have to leave the company. Even if you make a complaint to the redressal forum, nothing happens to the managers. They are protected and groomed to harass employees.
