Pros

Can't think of anything except a few good colleagues. DO READ THE CONS.

Cons

Free advice..leni hai to lo warna jaane do. 1. Interviews are taken like product based companies. 2. For client interviews they'll give you the questions that client asks so that you can get onboarded. Might be good for you and the company but doesn't seem right ethics to me. 3. Client is everything, you have very less value. 4. You can't choose to go to a different project/client if you dont like it (Maybe this just happened in my case since i was not at a big position) 5. Daily scrum calls are the real pain, not because they occur daily but when your manager/senior shouts at you on a daily basis almost (even for little things) it take away your peace. 6. If anything happens to your laptop, company will not take care of it and you'll have to pay from your own pocket. 7. Other projects might be good but the one i was in wasn't. They'll say you're a java engineer and work on good things but all you'll get is to write testcases for clients unless you are at a high position. 8. Only got around 2.5% raise, the max in my client space that i got to know was around 5% (Even for those who worked a lot). 9. HR will only listen to your seniors and dont expect any help from them. They are there to make sure you dont get offboarded from client so that company keeps making money.(speaking from my experience) Would not recommend joining this company unless you really have no other option.

Pros

nothing, its not recommended to join this company at this point of time. they are hiring and firing employees like crazy. Wissen employees have lost trust in WISSEN management so most of them are preparing for interviews in free time trying to switch to stable company

Cons

Wissen technology management is going downhill with regards to their culture and how they treat their fellow employees. No salary if you are on bench(which is pathetic !!!!), no notice period when you are not in client project, they will fire you like within a week and pay you only till last working day. Leaves are not carried forward neither they can be encashed. Wissen doesn't allow their employees to take sick/ casual leaves, you can only take 10 earned leaves per year(remaining leaves cannot be encashed or carried forward). wissen will not allow their employees to work from home even during festival times where as full time employees in client location doesnt even come to office. When you quit HR's and ED's from wissen go into threatening mode, they threaten you through out your notice period sigting that they will give negative feedback in experience letter, no full and final settlement, if you question they again threaten their employees. Some ex employees are planning to fight against wissen in labour court. To simply put WISSEN TECHNOLOGY is formed with only intention of making money for its founders, that's all, there is no policy, culture or anything of that sort that are in place. they treat their employees very badly. I would personally say WISSEN was a mistake in my life.

We have robust policies when it comes to bench management. Hiring and firing is not Wissen culture. We have leave policies with a well-defined encashment process. Our human asset's feedback is of utmost value to us but your opinion about the company is contradictory to our existing practices. Request you to reach out to your HRBP or the HR Head immediately. In-person conversation will help to bridge the gap.

Pros

To be honest there is nothing.

Cons

All the bad reviews you see here are really TRUE. I really encourage candidates to talk to ex Wissen employees and know the reality. Really urge you to do that. All good reviews that you see here are from Managers who generally have a good WLB at the expense of torturing Juniors. Salary - you are literally paid 1/4th of what the direct employees of your client get. That basically means Wissen keeps 3/4th. Career - Totally depends on the client. But the thing is you work as a consultant there. So there is a high probability you will get some bad work. This really is true across consultancies. Please ask a consultant. Hike - it's negligible. The funny thing is they include Retention Bonus as part of the Hike. I mean there is absolutely no logic to it. Notice Period - 90 days is tooooo much. They will torture you. You can judge a company by how they treat employees that leave. So many of my colleagues who left Wissen told their horror stories. I too am scared to resign now. If you are still not convinced. Please speak to ex-Wissen employees to get more clarity. I realised this the hard way, you don't have to.
