I have been working with Publicis Sapient as Senior Associate L2 for 6 years.
Work culture for my project is good where work life balance is maintained. All team members get work flexibility, leaves as required and even impromptu leaves as well.
All work is pre-planned with ample team size to handle, so we get flexibility for emergencies as well.
Work culture of Publicis Sapient is good, at least in my project. We can approach senior managers for discussion regarding any issue or clarification.
We have open environment and get treated with respect.
We are asked for our timeframes and work bandwidth before committing to any new project. So yes, you have choices!
Salary hike is always on time, but you have to work for promotion as there is lot of internal competition in team.
I think certifications and college matter for getting recognition in front of Seniors. Similarly, frequently interacting and taking initiative matters a lot.
