Pros

The office is well decorated. Lots of good companies nearby.

Cons

I had options outside India, inspite of that I chose Chronus thinking that it has been founded by Microsoft and Oracle employees and hence will be good. But after joining my perception totally changed. The work culture is pathetic. Behavior of management is terrible. The workload is unbelievable. If I would have worked even one fourth of what I have worked here in any of my previous companies I would have gone places. Most of the reviews which have rated this company highly are from them who haven’t worked anywhere else and are not aware of the Industry standards.

Pros

If you are okay to shift to Tamilnadu where Hindi is scarcely spoken, then you would enjoy the hospitality the Chennai city offers.

Cons

When given a choice to die to or to join Chronus, without blinking I would choose the earlier. If death is denied is the only time, I choose joining Chronus just to experience the what-else-worse-could-happen. I still remember sitting for the campus placements inspite something telling me that there is something shady about this organisation and their domain and business. I had to join here to confirm that assumption that their domain is the most fragile in the market. Easily any company in Silicon Valley could one day overturn and humble their business model. This place is a garbage driven environment. You will not get to have any breathing space. Even when you are about to die because of a fire accident, their first advise is to commit the code to Github. No care for employees. And lies - lies are everywhere. From the time they came to my campus to the recent one on one review. The worst thing that you would hear after joining is what the organisation expects from you and if I could translate that in simple English - We will drain your blood to pulp I made a mistake. Now that you have enough to gather from other reviews and from folks who have passed out, even appearing for this company could be avoided so that you will never go in a dilemma of whether or not choosing this dump yard over other offers.

Pros

A bunch of talented people in the Chennai office who are really good at what they do and are always willing to help. Work timings are flexible. Free food in the canteen (not proper meals for lunch/dinner but plenty of snacks and beverages).

Cons

1. Hardly any team outing/fun activity. They believe that such activities are waste of time and their business will hamper if we miss a day's work and go for an outing. 2. Highly biased. They have their own "favourite" employees and will go out of their way to keep them happy. They don't care about the other employees. So if you're not one of their favourites, you'll have a tough time surviving in the company. 3. Unnecessary pressure and long working hours. 4. Unceremonious firing. Some really good workers have been fired, for reasons best known to the management. Clearly, they don't believe in employee retention.
