Trending @Wipro; A good side of wipro

Hey, I have seen a lot of hate for wipro on this platform

But let me tell you the good side of wipro:

  1. If you compare the work culture of infosys/TCS to wipro, wipro wins bcz if you work well in wipro you get more ownership of work and you will get to learn more things but in other service based you have to do only that, that is given to you, nothing extra. That is why the retention rate of wipro is very low.

  2. Of course there is office politics, But I have never seen people who are great at work affected by poly. The people who work are far away from this shit and they are living a peaceful life, no one is harming them.

  3. There is a lot of free time to work on learning new skills in wipro (but if you are not perfect in your work then not, you would not get free from your work quickly).

The only good thing about Wipro according to me is that 66% of the profits go to charity.

Which charity, year on year we get the too low appraisal some times i feel like its our money which is going on charity. And i wnt to know which charity its going is wipro run free hospitals any old age homes, free schools, college, university for underprivileged. Only i have heard is money is going on charity. Just one year wipro give littel bit of that charity money to its own employees so that we can also do something better for ourselves

Yes exactly, he is cutting our money to give charity... it's a twisted sense of doing charity. Btw, the focus of charity is largely schools. You can check the work done by Premji foundation. During the pandemic 1 of the offices in Pune was converted to a 500 bed hospital giving free treatment.. people even outside pune were coming due to excellent and free treatment. Some 20 years back Premji made the single largest philanthropic donation in the world, even more than Bill Gates in that year. There is also Premji university in BLR giving almost free education to teachers.

I agree with the points you mentioned, but they are not entirely true. Reason for this is, it depends on project and manager as well. Doesn't matter how immune you are to office politics YOU WILL BE AFFECTED by it, the degree would be debatable. Besides every organisation has their own pros and cons. For eg: RELATIVE Job security might be TCS' advantage. Thanks for mentioning the above points though. I appreciate it.

Don’t agree with a majority of what you said
2. Personally a victim of politics from Day 1 and I work decently well (but it’s not a claim I can make for myself, so I’ll leave it there with an instance from work - had a team of 5 people working with me but no one had a scalable, reliable and practical solution to a particular problem; it turned out that I was the only one who knew how to use a function which is otherwise commonly used. The team had folks with at least 5+ years of experience more than me) 3. My projects so far are under staffed and the people in the project are under skilled - so most of the time is spent mentoring, providing a step by step guide to the team, reviewing and attending meetings where no one is ready to admit or resolve these problems.

On retention - in 1.2 years I personally know 3 people (who were good with work, 2 even better than me-in my perspective) who left the company as they had no project and the nonsense Bench/LOP policies were enforced on them.
Have also worked on LOP without pay, got my variables impacted because of lack of projects (50%) and simply due to higher management deciding not to make people billable even after getting the agreements in place (the only reason sensible seems to show more margins).

I’ll be really glad to hear if there are any other positives on Wipro.

98% of them have faced problems. That's because multiple manager changes, management changes , what I learnt in wipro is no matter how much u work, if u bucket u will get promoted or you have be a female. I have been here since 7 yrs and no promotion.

I believe different people have different experience when working in a MNC and it totally depends on multiple factors like your project ,manager , teammates,work location etc

For some it may be a bad experience while good for the other

We cannot generalize things like whether it's a good company or not.
