Interesting Work - Recensione dipendente - CAE Engineer presso Equilibrium Solutions

Good overseas clients and basic CAE tools knowledge can be gained

There are multiple problems with the management starting with unrealistic expectations from both junior and senior engineers. If a certain meshing task is actually 20 hours, then only 16 hours are quoted to get the project and the pressure in put on the engineer to complete the task in 16 hours. Here is how it gets bad - 1. 16 hours means 16 hours or 2 working days. 2. This doesn't account time for restroom breaks, lunch or tea breaks. 3. No option to cover time for any other questions/answers or checking your emails. So, in the end, the engineer ends up spending 20-24 hours on the task and gets scolded from the seniors on a frequent basis with threats of termination. This leads to low confidence levels in engineers. In addition, the seniors always put the blame on juniors and don't take any responsibility themselves and keep engaging in dirty politics. Also, there is discrimiination on the basis of political alignment, caste and langauge in this office. Low pay is acceptable but discrimination is not.

Exposure to tools and nothing else

Very poor onboarding for freshers. No structured training is provided, and employees are expected to start contributing to projects almost immediately without proper guidance. Unrealistic expectations, especially for those transitioning from different domains, with minimal support. Work allocation is inconsistent, with multiple responsibilities assigned simultaneously, including internal and client work, without clear prioritization. Lack of mentorship and proper knowledge transfer, even when experienced team members leave. Employees are frequently required to work 2–3 hours beyond regular working hours, and are often expected to work on weekends (including Saturdays and Sundays) without any additional compensation. Comp-off requests are not consistently approved. Communication from HR is slow and unresponsive, even for critical matters like resignation acknowledgment and salary processing. Overall work environment can feel stressful and unsupportive, with more focus on output than on employee well-being.
