Pros

Good Mediclaim Good Leave Policy Work-Life Balance

Cons

I joined WU (Yerwada, Pune) on June 19 and was fired by the company in Sep 2019 along with 10 other team members on the name of cost-cutting and some business strategic changes. This shows the inefficiency of the management who designed a strategy so as a junior-level employee had to cost his job within 3 months of joining. They gave me a 2 hours notice to sign the exit paper or else threatened to terminate me without giving the compensation for the month. It was a personal trauma for me and still did not come out of it after 2 years. I perhaps will be skeptical everytime I join a new company throughout my life and will live in a fear of getting fired any fine day. The Government should ban these types of companies who are mentally harassing and exploiting the human assets of the country.
