Pros
A flashing salary when you accept the offer. Good colleagues(peers). But everyone is scared of their tomorrow with company. Very frequently parties and team outing. But you never know you would be there in tomorrow's party or not.
Cons
You name about worst and you would find it there. 0) Its tough to survive here without politics doesn't matter how hard/smart you work for your job. 1) No work life balance though it has flexible work timings. 2) No HR in action at all. All for the sake of keeping and HR department they are there. Yeah they comes in action when they have to inform that you are fired. 3) Minimal Appraisal or no appraisal for you :) 4) Lots of ambiguities in company and management policies. You can clearly make out that the company still separate Indian employees with US and Australia. 5) You career might to come to an end with Aristocrat with just a dislike of an Individual from US or Australia. 6) Firing people at Noida center is decided in 5 mins. So, you reached office thinking about your work and you are not being allowed to enter into the office not even to collect your stuff. 7) How many times you would see a firing in a span of 4 years working with any company. I have seen 10 occasions. And thats too people in group fired at a go. 8) I have heard many people being fired because their salary was high. Just have a question to the company were they sleeping when they offered the employee initially. By the way I am not sure about this that after firing company never gives any reason. Its a long list. Just a suggestion to any new joinee, If you know anyone who has worked or working with Aristocrat, Do talk to him before making your decision to work with Aristocrat. After all its a life time decision for anyone to decide to join a new company. Though its a 5 mins call for Aristocrat to fire anyone doesnt matter how long that person is working with Aristocrat, Noida. They work on a very clear cut agenda. HIRE and FIRE.
