Svantaggi
1) One of the worst work-life balance; Pharma is not a good vertical to work in 2) Rigid Hierarchy - Managers/Cs/ACs call out the shots on everything and don't listen to what Associates have to say 3)Very slow growth-It takes forever to get promoted to next level even though you are taking up all next level responsibilities 4) Not the place for lateral hires- They never consider previous work experience; If HR says they do then they are lying 5) Bad work culture - People take credit for other people's work to get promoted 6)Not safe for Female Employees-Multiple incidents have happened where male employees have harassed female employees ; To handle these cases ZS just fires the perpetrator 7) Lack of growth Opportunities - Limited Onsite opportunities and even if you go on CIG , you will be paid less compared to US counterparts for same work 8) Employees interest is not taken into consideration while assigning projects at all 9) Firm Contribution- It doesn't matter whether you are adding value to the client project as long as you are involved in office level activities 10) Firing Culture- Employees who are struggling are asked to leave in the first months itself without giving them a chance to perform 11) Offshore and Onshore divide- There is no equal distribution of work and if something goes wrong then it is always offshore's fault. Onshore is just expected to present offshore's work and nothing else 12) Mini-Bus company- ZS hires in big numbers and is not so much interested about maintaining quality; Exclusivity factor is long gone as earlier they used to hire from top IITs
