Pros
Do what you r told and maintain a low profile and you wont be targeted by tgang. There exists a significant potential for exponential expansion if one is able to speak tamil and adhere unquestioningly to the directives of the boss and his favorites.
Cons
I concur with the recent review and have observed multiple instances during my tenure where a lack of work ethics is evident among certain individuals. It appears that there may be a perception of favoritism towards specific employees by recruitment head, which has resulted in a sense of unfair treatment among other team members. These people hold a disproportionate amount of decision-making authority, which jeopardizes the company's ability to operate fairly. It is regrettable that a business of this magnitude is perceived as operating like a small family-owned business, where personal relationships take precedence over fairness and merit. Those who reject it or disagree with it run the risk of being excluded. The influence of boss extend to the human resource creating a situation where the company is being run solely according to his preferences. With regards to a review provided by another female employee, the working conditions are deemed to be extremely inadequate, and one must become accustomed to receiving derogatory comments and attitudes, unless they are from chenai. The presence of institutional racism and ethnic discrimination within this company is evident. It is my recommendation to refrain from engaging with virtusa. Your dignity will be shaken by comments and accidentally touching from the boss's favorite.

Pros
decent compensation and perks. organization might perform better with new leadership
Cons
where do I begin? Unless you're a native Tamilian, the working environment is like working in hell. Tamil is a frequently used language in offices and numerous meetings when people ask each other questions they don't want you to know. It's common to look at somebody, say something in Tamil, and then laugh. For lunch and supper, only certain employees are invited. We are never even invited, but they always order extra food to take home and expense it in our name. These guys act in a very petty manner while earning a significant wage from the corporation. You can anticipate another staff member from Chennai when a USA employee is fired. We are viewed as underperforming employees because they don't share any knowledge or consider us to be a part of the team. The rules are different for everybody, and you have to forget about promised raises and promotions if you don't fall into that family. you have to accept them, otherwise you will be demoted or given a task to complete without any help or information, at which point your boss will continue to put you down in front of everyone until you breakdown. you can never win a fight with your boss and your boss will make you realize the power he has. On the other hand, mani is a sinister and often makes vulgar comments, he is protected by boss. It's normal for them to miss work even on a family birthday, but if you have a medical emergency, you'll have to provide justification for the next few weeks and you'll always be ridiculed, even criticized. called old.

Pros
I developed good friendship there with colleagues and had a competent offshore team.
Cons
It's challenging to carry on if you don't agree or hold the same views. They must undoubtedly leave the job culture from Chennai. To remain in their comfort zone, they break all the norms. I've been screamed at numerous times in front of vendors or other people without any remorse from him. My manager refused to let me recommend my degree-holding cousin for a job yet boss permitted the vendor's son to complete an internship. I was fired one day and didn't have the guts to write a review out of fear that he could offer me negative feedback. I feel that I need to be heard and that human resources should take action against him in light of previous reviews. Everybody had distinct rules to follow. While I was expected to abide by the return to office rules, some personnel were allowed the opportunity to operate remotely or even outside of the nation if they need to. The fact that Human Resources officers were women is a sad fact, but she never stood by us or even took action against these particular people for making vulgar remarks, harassing us, and using innuendo in many cases.
