Pros

I cannot write anything here.

Cons

Once you resign and join a new company, and if that company is interested in processing GC for you, they will ask you to get an experience letter with roles and responsibilities and Tools and Technologies mentioned in the letter from your former employer as required by USCIS. The below is the response you will receive .... They are doing things as per their policy but that is going to screw up with your experience that you try to show to USCIS. The following is what you will receive from Syntel Inc. We are in receipt of your recent request for a issuance of a letter with details of your skills and technologies used by you, during your tenure with Syntel. Unfortunately, this letter cannot be issued. Syntel is under no obligation to issue such letter and considering our internal corporate protocol, such letters will not be issued. Mentioned herewith is an extract from the HR Manual with regards to the above mentioned topic:- “It is Syntel's policy to provide employment verification letters to its employees or former employees upon request. All requests should be directed to the Human Resources Department. Employment verification letters will confirm the dates during which an employee worked at Syntel and job title. However, Syntel will not provide reference or experience letters that indicate a current or former employee learned, used or possessed specific skills while employed by Syntel. Syntel employees may not provide any reference or experience letters in their capacity as employees of Syntel.” We have already issued the relieving letter in the permissible standard format that mentions your tenure with Syntel INC. There are no other letters that will be issued by the Organization Please note that this is a final note on the said topic and there are no exceptions to this matter. We wish best of luck on your future endeavors !! ---- Think twice before joining !
