Pros

Unlimited days off Free lunch

Cons

- CEO needs to stop begging people to leave positive glass door ratings. Do not leave them as do not have them - People principles is not followed as even freshers are told need to do roles or leave - CEO says open and trusting culture does not show in actions or treating of employees

Hi there, Thank you for your review and your frank feedback - I did perceive the risk of being judged when I wrote an email requesting for people to write reviews on glassdoor (not positive or negative reviews but objective reviews). I am sorry that I offended you by my request. It would be great if you could point out specific issues that we should address at Fractal. Changing the CEO might be a solution but let's first understand the issues in greater detail. Freshers have a lot of say in choosing what they do - if you find an exception, please point it out to me and I will ensure we fix it. I would be very happy to meet with you and discuss your specific issues. Please help me in building a great place to work. Regards, Srikanth

Pros

The company's client centricity is exceptional, with a deeply embedded focus on delivering value, reflected in a strong and loyal client base built on high levels of trust and credibility. There is a significant commitment to AI research and forward looking capabilities, alongside a clear investment in building a people first culture over time. The company is well regarded in the market with a strong foundation for continued growth

Cons

TMT suffers from ineffective leadership at the helm with little visible effort to grow capabilities or drive meaningful outcomes. Exec contribution to growth is largely absent, making the net impact negative. Cultural values are not consistently reflected in day to day execution. It has a pattern of positioning other teams negatively including Growth, Tech, AI, and PA rather than partnering, which creates real friction with them resulting in loss of opportunities. There is genuine talent within the team being held back by leadership that prioritizes internal politics over building real capability, resulting in shallow vertical capabilities. The gap between what the company expects and what leadership enables the team to deliver is significant and consistently unaddressed
