Pros

I will honestly put points in Cons section and treat this as a very serious feedback for your career and life. Note: all the 5 star review are fake. And recently Tracxn have started putting fake 1 star review. If i am not wrong Tracxn opened new account as the first one was completely bombed with reviews.

Cons

Case 1: You are expecting offer or thinking of interviewing in Tracxn. Have faith on yourself and put a bit more effort in finding a job. Else one fine day you will break down and leave Tracxn and put a blot in your CV/Career. Case 2: You are still in Tracxn. Dont loose hope. Better now than late. Leave the job with or without offer.. Many of us did the same at all levels. You are not alone. I will try to put only the important points so as to save your time as I can go on with small things: WORK CULTURE/JAIL NO SMILE ZONE: More than 2 or more employees cannot sit or stand near the office and half a small talk or laugh. Employees are expected to behave like slaves who should silently walk to the bench and start working without any smile/laugh/communication. Whether AVP or Executive, nobody smiles near office. Managers are reprimanded if their team members seem to be smiling. I am not making up. This is 100% True. SLAVERY like the movie “MORDERN TIMES” : On paper it is 8.5 hours working hours out of 10 office hours. But your entire days' calendar will be set for 9.5 hours where each and every minute will be approved by VP/COO. Spending more than half an hour on breaks, loos, and lunch is despised and frowned. You will have to justify how you spent more than 30 minutes every week to your senior. ZERO TRUST on employees: Whether you are from IIT or IIM or Ghanshyam college, even for changing spreadsheet cell color,width,font you will have to take approval from your senior. You will learn how not prioritize important things and waste discussions on non value adding things. HIGHEST Employee CHURN/ATTRITION Rate: In three months,⅓ of Tracxn changes. In a year you will feel everybody near you is a new face and you will feel as if you are the least intelligent person to have been incapable to move out of this jail. YES MEETINGS/BASH MEETINGS: Nobody laughs in the meeting. You will be shouted, humiliated just for explaining a point for 2 minutes instead of 1 min. The VP/COO thinks that his time is so valuable that he cannot waste extra 1 minute for listening difficult points. Forget about brainstorming. Be a robot. Just say Yes V. Soon you will be dreaming about the bashing you are going to get in the meetings and loosing control of your life. Your wife or girlfriend will soon get stranded and left. NO RESPECT: Junior employee are treated as use and throw pens. They are paid like Rs 11.5K and are made to work twice the work done by average IT employees. For such a paltry amount, we are humiliated and scolded and threatened to perform like machines. TIMINGS: Your in time is 9:00:01 instead of 9:00:00. You are done. Everyday your in times and out times are sent to all your seniors and CEO. Your appraisal ratings, salary hike, and daily meetings will be started with this “You are not putting efforts. You have been late by 1 minute at 4 instances in last 14 days.” OR “You did not complete 10 Hours at 2 instances in last 14 days”. And remember you are a top graduate from IIT or IIM. Feeling Lucky right??? ETHICAL ISSUES IN TRACXN: TRAP APPRAISALS: So you think you are getting promotion. HAHA. You are in a trap. Your salary will not be hiked. According to some insane policies your salary will not be increased until next appraisal and appraisal happens after completing 1 year. And the TRICK is to give you promotion rigth after your last appraisal. ;) FAKE ESOPs: They will lure you with ESOPs in job offers but what they dont tell you is that employees who are in the Tracxn or who have left Tracxn after Two years have not received ESOP papers till now. Ideally, according to policies they have to provide ESOP papers every year with the ESOP you garner for completing each year. ONE SIDED NOTICE PERIOD: If you ask for early relieving, then they will ask you to buyout the number of days including holidays, weekends. But if you ask them that you want to complete notice period, they will give you early relieving papers saying you can leave early if you want to. DUBIOUS LEAVES: The flexi leaves are too flexy. If 2 of the flexi holidays like HOLI and UGADI fall on weekdays, they will ask you to make a choice among them. But in case one of these fall on weekend, then they will make the one in weekend as the official holiday and remove flexi option from those two days which effectively cancels your holiday. DESTROY 2 BIRDS with one stone : You are a AVP and you might slog for days and night and setup a department, then they will promote a junior employee and make him AVP. You will be thrown in a corner. Now the junior manager/employee is wondering how am I ever going to switch. My salary is 3 lakhs and I am AVP. Who will take me? SALARY DEDUCTION: You might have spent weekends/slogged extra hours to get things done but when you have planned leave for EURO Tour/HoneyMoon/Marriage/Family Emergency they won't allow you to club even one sick leave with your earned leaves if you are falling short of earned leaves. They love deducting salary with the policy Leave without Pay. People have lost salary because of bad leave policies,technical failures, and miscommunications with HR because nobody can question HR. HR has ultimate authority to deduct salary anytime even if the fault is not of employees. FUN FACTs: INVESTMENT REJECTION: Some Investors did not invest in Tracxn due to failure to comply in due diligence report regarding unethical culture and bad behavour towards employees.. HIGHEST RATE of SALARY DEDUCTIONS: Almost every manager/AVP has got his salary deducted due to high number of anxiety/frustration holidays which could not be accommodated within earned or sick leaves. LAST WORDS: If you still want to join TRACXN and you dont believe me. Do yourself a favor. Please talk to some existing employees. AND Remember you have been WARNED. PEACE. MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU.

Pros

The place is one of a kind. One is expected ruthlessly following his calendar (set by his / her manager and approved by the CEO) throughout the day without compromising a minute. Each day's output has to be presented to the manager on the next day in a dedicated hour. Personally, I am afraid the place has more cons than pros. 1. The responsibilities of my role were immense. I was not even handling one-fourth of that in my previous org. It allowed me to get out of my comfort zone and prove to myself what I am worthy of. 2. Employees are extremely talented and their problem-solving approach is unparalleled. I always wondered how better the world would be had these guys been pulled out to solve the problems that matter to mankind.

Cons

1. The senior management considers employees as yet any resource like a data centre, capital or electricity. There is no literally any discussion apart from those related to work (Hard to believe, but true) 2. The culture is toxic. The feedback given for the work is extremely condescending and makes you loathe the place. 3. Extremely stressful environment and hard to sustain its same workstyle day-in and day-out 4. The timings are fixed (9 to 7). Not a minute more, not a minute less. However, one is expected to work every minute of this except for a 30-min lunch break.

Pros

Can't think of anything. Any self-respecting person with marketable skills would not work here for more than 6 months.

Cons

I could write a book about the cons but will mention a few of them: 1) The company is filled with useless people who have fancy designations. 2) 10-hour workday and there is an excel sheet to monitor loo breaks. 3) Micromanagement is a favorite pass time of all the managers. 4) An AVP( Junior Manager in real companies) has got only 5 people working under him. 5) Employees are treated as crap and are reprimanded for missing a colon in an internal mail. 6) The work is all manual and there is no technology involved expect MS-Excel. 7) No team dinners or events. Basically functions like a call center.
