Pluspunten
Its amazing working with Swedes! Honest & lovely people. You get to say you work for "Volvo," which sounds impressive… until you actually start working here. Great brand name to put on your resume when you eventually leave.
Minpunten
Career Growth? What's That? You'll hear all the right buzzwords — "growth," "opportunities," "next level" — but it’s all just noise. Years will go by, and you'll still be doing the exact same thing, waiting for that mythical promotion that never comes. Appraisals That Feel Like Insults: Be prepared for hikes so low they’d make inflation laugh. Low single digits, if you're lucky. Meanwhile, you're expected to stretch yourself thin and "go the extra mile." On-Call Exploitation: Want to be on-call 24/7 for 2-3 weeks straight? Sure! Just don’t expect to be fairly compensated — you’ll get a grand total of ₹7.5k for your troubles. That’s it. No matter how much you work. But hey, the country leads get free Volvos while the company is dying, so someone’s winning. Cost-Cutting, But Only for the Plebs: Every rupee is squeezed when it comes to employees, but the upper Indian management continues to enjoy hikes, perks, and luxury like they’re running a premium club. It’s almost poetic, really — cost-cutting from the bottom up. Middle Management Masterclass: Ever seen someone lead a tech product they don’t understand? You will here. Engineering managers who couldn't explain the product they manage if their life depended on it — but they sure know how to attend meetings and make arbitrary decisions.
