Minpunten
Standard Solution: ATK is one firm where you will learn to form pretentious relationships to be highly pretentious at work. Every problem has a standard solution of making a Powerpoint and then organizing a Practice Leaders(PLs) meet where things like pros and cons of sending a standard reply in 30 mins is discussed. In addition to this the PLs come to office at 11 and leave at 5:45 sharp so that they don't miss their gym or other classes. The research unit has become nothing more than a call center(and the crowd says it all) TLs and PLs: The Team Leaders(TLs) and PLs serve no other purpose but to sort their mailbox and forward the requests to juniors. Whereas they are involved in making Qualification packs and useless BD work which take nothing more than an hour. In addition to this rest of the time is involved in shopping, talking to their bfs/ husbands/gfs/wives and telling maids what food is to be cooked and how it is to be cooked. Appraisal Cycle: Every person is guaranteed a promotion after one year no matter how dumb you are, even if you don't know how to insert filter in an excel sheet, don't worry your promotion is taken care of. This serves as a serious disincentive to people who are diligent and work hard and then they also end up being complacent. Managers: Being friends with your manager and other managers is a core component of your job description. If you want an easy life just like your manager, all you have to do is be their good friends. Work from Home is the only work managers do, which is basically an unaccounted leave. People who suck up to their managers in parties and go out for drinks with them are the ones who can given the best appraisal and salary hike.
