Pros

Having worked for 5 years in this company. This is a perfect place to begin your career. Latest technologies are used and if you propose a good solution or idea you will be rewarded regardless of your position in the company. Your Mentor/Manager plays a vital role in shaping your career in prodex. Many big named customers have used/ using our product. Not able to disclose customers name due to NDA. You will definitely be proud your software is used by such big industry giants. Tech Sessions will be conducted by the management periodically which will help to keep up to date with the technology. Anniversary Card - Every employee wishes you in work anniversary in a greeting card which i never heared any of the company does. Snacksssss - They provide free awesome snacks which anyone leaving the company will miss for sure You will get attached to the company soon. You will a home like atmosphere very quickly. Easy accessibility of any person in the management. You can just contact the CEO by a email/phone and express your concerns

Cons

Pay - There is very good at the beginning but later you will receive less increments. They say pay depends on performance. But even though manager is satisfied with your performance, management won't be. Location - IT Company in Mylapore. Hope you get it ! Off the Work Fun - Before there used to December Drizzle, events for Prodex anniversary now everything is stopped and focused on work. People always need fun at work. No Work from home option ! No Insurance - But management is putting efforts to get this done. So may be in a span of 6 months it will be available. Timings and Dress Code - 9.15 am to 6.15 pm with formals and shoes - Seriously? Its 2K19 ! First and Fifth Saturday Working - Reminder again - its 2k19

Pros

Salary paid on time Snacks Complimentary

Cons

Company is 28 years old but internally feels like a 2 year old startup. No proper processes at all. Communication is purely on WhatsApp and private mail. No Teams, no Slack, no proper project management tool. All deadlines are communicated verbally only. Nothing in writing. This creates so much confusion and later when things go wrong, there is no paper trail. Deadlines are completely unrealistic. Was given end-to-end application to build in 4 working days(Involved Back and Front End and Testing with each test approx a couple of hours, due to the requirement). Any developer will tell you this is not possible with proper testing and documentation. When you cannot deliver, management says "need more effort" - by which they mean work extra hours without any overtime or comp off. There is no overtime policy. No comp off policy. You are expected to sit 1-2 hours extra daily during crunch time with zero compensation. For a company that is almost 3 decades old, this is shocking. WFH policy exists but gets revoked on very short notice whenever management feels like it. No standard notice period for schedule changes. You plan your day and suddenly get told to come to office. No QA team, no UX designer. Developers are expected to test their own code, design their own interfaces, and deliver everything. This leads to quality issues and burnout. Probation period is introduced suddenly after joining with no mention of it in the Offer. Probation period is used to set unrealistic expectations. "Extra effort" culture gets established during probation and then becomes permanent expectation. Basically their flow is like this: Hire by saying terms like Hybrid work policy, Flexible timings etc. But when you enter, all those would be held against you. Then come the unreasonable deadlines for each and every task, which will be held against you quoting dull performance. Then comes this probation out of nowhere risking termination and then finally comes termination within a few months of joining. This is purely for their temporary requirements, that they hire and once it is done, they will quote poor performance and terminate you in a matter of 10 minutes. For such places, even if you document everyday, you won't have a chance to prove it. And probation termination is virtually impossible to fight. Management uses this loophole to abuse the workforce. ADVICE TO JOB SEEKERS: Company is stable and pays on time which is better than many small companies. But if you value work life balance or proper processes, look elsewhere. Clarify ALL policies in writing before joining. Ask specifically about overtime, comp off, WFH notice period, and deadline setting process. P. S. DON'T Trust the old reviews. They are from times where the company was better. A lot has changed recently and lots of restructuring, thus more risk of out of the blue layoff.
