Pros

I joined this company reading the same reviews like most of them do in here but probably the biggest mistake of my career to have done except a few. And those few are the pros: - Gurukool sessions - Good quality work - Good transport facilities - Great marketing of own brand - Good leave policy

Cons

After I quit the company, I realized how come there are so many good reviews about this company. Then I realised probably they're the ones who never had any work in the company during work-hrs - no work-life balance, Managers will tell u upfront to work till 16 hrs a day and shout at you in front of everyone ( ask u to do development during day time and Prod support at night) - improper performance review, biased and politically influenced - Ethics helpline is just a gimmick, there is blatant favoritism etc - HR is a puppet who are mere slaves of managers/directors - BAD BAD COMPENSATION: Bonus is HEAVILY included in the CTC and they'll eat away all you own money - They'll give a huge chunk like 50K as transportation which U wont get upto even a penny if u dont opt for (good for far flung commuters) - NO TAX saving options in salary and U get MEAGRE take-home (the company earns keeping all ur money in their own FDs) - Medical Benefits/Hospitalization is only upto 1 lac/a where in a part of premium is deducted from ur salary too (My current org gives upto 3 lacs covering even in laws paying complete premium)

Pros

Fidelity has a great work life balance and an amazing culture. Had a great time interning there!

Cons

Not as much tech innovation but makes sense for a financial firm.

Pros

Benefits including profit sharing and bonuses are great. The breadth of this company provides a great opportunity to try out different career paths or boost your current one.

Cons

In my current role, I am working overtime more often than I'd like with recognition that seems to only go so far until it sizzles out. That may be tied to the size of the company itself, where promotions work in a "trickle down" manner.
