Thread regarding Syntel Inc. layoffs

Why was I even here?

The time i spent working for Syntel was the worst in my life. This company has the worst work culture I’ve ever experienced. Politics is rampant and there is absolutely no work life balance.

Room for growth is unheard of and leadership is satisfied with only short term benefits instead of long term goal.

There was a definite ‘Us vs. Them’ mentality between Western and Eastern cultures which can be seen in upper management and how they deal with crisis and how issues are handled. Management prefered to let morale deteriorate rather than try to improve upon it. All in all I am glad I am no longer there. The learning experience was not worth the trouble.

You and I are and were here because of our karma. It was destined to be such. However syntel was not as sick a decade ago, as it's state as such. Some due to owners lack of interest, some due to negligent leadership, and others due to personal agenda of divery team heads.

After all this mess and revenue leakage, it was decided to cut variable pay, no hikes, no promotions and achieve nirvana, and thereby be in the good books of the board.
