Cons
People here work for paycheck. There is no sense of purpose and that reflects in people's face at all levels and in all departments. It's hard to be inspired in the existing environment and nothing is done to motivate employees. The proof lies in the annual attrition rate which hovers between 25% and 35%. Lack of growth opportunities in back office departments. Employees in these departments are treated as second class employees, The leadership and their judgments in these departments are also questionable, No one knows what value these head of departments bring. There is no effort in employee retention. Many deserving employees are not promoted unless they give in their papers. There are examples of employees given promotion every time they resigned which provides some fun conversation in otherwise mundane environment. While many not so deserving move up the ladder which you can easily tell by talking to them. There is one common denominator- when you leave the company, you will have a smiling face. Employees who never smiled during their time in CIM were seen smiling on their last day in CIM.
