  • My employer hired me when it was Fully WFH, now they force me to join office after 8 months of joining.
  • Attend 5 days/week
  • No hybrid
  • Biometric system to track attendance
  • Complete 180 hours in a month or pay cut
  • No relocation support
  • Less appraisal (~5%) citing market conditions.
  • Removed unlimited leaves just a few days below announcing WFO.

I can't completely say it's toxic policy but

Cons:

  • No Internet allowances during COVID time/WFH
  • No furniture allowance during COVID
  • No coupons for birthdays/anniversary etc.
  • No food / snacks
  • No travel allowance
  • No joining bonus

Pros:

  • Extremely good hike % every year. Even in layoffs most of them got 20 to 25% on average ( even with packages> 60)

  • Company closed the office from june 2020 till Dec 2022 due to covid. Management calculated all the office expenses like rent/lease, internet, panty etc.. and distributed equally to employees. This was not part of our CTC. I got around 12.5Lakh post tax in Jan

Why do you mention stealth? Mention the name of the company.

Also, too control hungry company, not a great culture if you want to drive innovation among employees.

It's like a startup at a very initial stage. Also, not comfortable naming the company.

Funny thing, they have an office in Mumbai and people are fucking travelling 3 hours on road just to get to office. Lol.

You do know this is how the world worked pre covid? Even while signing joining letter for a complete remote job they say that you can be asked to relocate when they want

Toxic Remote Policy

So, I joined this company located in Delhi last year from Bangalore as a permanent WFH employee. Initial 6 months were fine, even though I was aware they had pre-installed tracking software called "Teramind" while sending the laptop! Bu...

High attrition, toxic culture, weird incentives

Working at a Paytm subsidiary. My manager left the firm 6 months ago and instead of hiring a replacement I was given all his work with no increment or bonus.

I worked my ass off and ensured there were no issues. Come appraisal time, no ...
