Pros
Company is progressing towards western way of work culture which emphasizes on transparency, professionalism, flexibility and process. Good company for HR professionals as they are perhaps the only ones who benefit from the so-called employee enrichment policies :P
Kontras
* Though a Deming company now, most of the people in the company honestly know that their slogan of customer-centric is just a slogan, lip service - nothing else. * Current CFO is a master in messing things up at ground level & showcasing a flowery picture to the top. * Sadly, middle management has lots of 30-something young leaders who understand that they have to be Yes-Men and ask little questions at top. There is constant lip-service about processes which go for a toss when the Powers-be get agitated. * Middle leadership usually does the job of catching up with current fads in the company without really understanding the benefits/impacts. * There is constant talk of work-life balance which doesn't go beyond talk. Employee cost targets ensure that most of the deptts (especially Factory and Operations related functions) remain under-staffed and employees stay over-worked. * Current fad is Gender-diversity. So every function head is hiring women even at the expense of compromising on personnel quality, just to earn brownie points with top management. Even for the operational roles which demand balanced aggression & tact (dealing with union, unorganized industries, extra man-hours etc) on part of employee, they are hiring women who are then told to do only the easy part of the job. The already over-worked men colleagues are then asked to do rest of her role. Although an appreciable concept, but gender diversity is clearly being executed in wrong ways.
