      Business outlook

      Pros

      None, everything was down to the individual to source and you were constantly criticised for the quality of your own leads!

      Cons

      They lie about everything from the size of their teams to the capability of their solutions and their commitment to staff.

      Do NOT Join at Smartek21

      Business outlook

      Pros

      BEWARE ! BEWARE ! BEWARE 1) Smartek has beautiful policy for each individual (Example one employee notice period is 1 month, for another person 2 months, another person 3 months and so on.... which you cannot expect from any employer. 2) There is a variable component called "Variable Performance bonus" which is supposed to be given to employee after every month. This has been changed every year without prior notice to employee. 3) Interestingly, none of the employees got 100% of VPA amount in-spite of 5 out of 5 rating which seem to be unethical. The existing good employee friendly culture has been spoiled by newly formed leadership team.

      Cons

      No one knows about the notice period. Employee can be terminated immediately. HR does not answer your queries properly and does not have good visibility on the policy. Most of the projects are getting closed so getting into a new project is quite impossible so you can be fired immediately. Leadership team wants to SAVE money with freshers and do not want to delivery quality projects to client.

      Dont believe 4.4 rating of Smartek Consultancy Services

      Business outlook

      Pros

      CEO has positive outlook and talks to each and every employee. Colleagues are good and friendly nature. Every friday there is a fun activity for those who are interested.

      Cons

      Worst HR ever. Need to keep each and every conversation/request/problem on mail otherwise it may take 3-4 months to get resolved. Never seen such a bunch of slackers at one place. Had joined the company by looking at 4.4 rating on glassdoor. Was informed by previous employees that HR had asked to fill up the review with good ratings so new people can join. Please please please dont believe this cumulative glassdoor rating. A simple proof of this could be new employee ids start from 1200 and the total strength of the company is still 250-300 after 9 years. Policies are not employee friendly, I was troubled till the last minute of my employment for processing relieving duties.
