Microsoft Global Services Private Ltd - Pitfalls
Pros: - Goodies
- Cellphone and Broadband reimbursement
- Certifications and Training
- Parental leave
- At least 1 visit to US guaranteed
Cons: - Lot of Manager like ( for 1 Developer - 4 Manager)
- Overall in whole year if u do one mistake, ur review is screwed
- Overall in all projects worked in year, if any 1 dev lead or Proj Mgr give bad comment, you are screwed
- Projects are all small size like 2 weeks to 6 weeks
- Lot of gyan on Work Life Balance, while none are implemented
- Hike is very bad compared to other companies ( this is only for GD specific, IDC pays well, MSIT is ok kind of)
- Depends on which Resource manager you are working with, few are very gud and few very bad also.
- Gud only for initial 2years of joining, if u are not superstar within 2 years , simply resign
- For new joinees - if the offer is having less hike in Base pay and more of variable , simply dont accept - reject it (experienced suggestion)
- there are no ratings now, while still as undercover they maintain rating
- rather than technical , if your communication is gud - u have better future ( like saying dynamic lies to customer and covering up nicely)
