I am working with Wipro since last 2 years and believe me....its the most horrible two years of my professional journey. The story goes like this. Lots of resources quit after work pressure, harrasment and after getting bad appraisal. As a result Wipro face resource crunch in the projects...so they go on to recruit mass people on giving good hike.
After landing up in Wipro you realise that you have landed up on wrong platform. You have to search the project on your own, there is no one you can have a word face to face. People who are in Organization for more than 3-4 years are adamant, they just think like they are the King.
Recruitment team, Project managers just want a resource to be billable no matter what his/her skill sets are. This way you ended up in a wrong project. There is one more big hurdle. While getting into any project you have to appear for series of technical interviews. The interviewer thinks that he knows all the things in the world.
After crossing all these obstacles, Once you get into a project, you face the music. There is no knowledge transition, they want the project delivery right from day one. They start shouting at you.
If you are on bench then god only help you in getting project. It is general assumption in Wipro that if a resource is on bench then he is not competent.
For Onsite opportunity there is lots a lots of politics. You have to lick your supervisors dick to get onsite. (Even after that it is not guaranteed).
There is a thing called, technology practice group (TPG). I really wonder what this group does and what it is meant for. They never pass on the knowledge of so called expert people, they never assist you in getting project. Some senior dump, incompetent people are sitting and running (?) the TPG.
One more hurdle in Wipro life - you need to appear for exams called UCF. Its mandatory for everyone based on your role. If you don’t cleat it, they stop your increment, ask you to leave.
You really need to very lucky to get good project and colleagues. Overall it was a bull$hit experience working in Wipro. Don’t just go by brand name, think twice thrice before accepting Wipro offer. These are words by an experienced Wipro employee, so think over it.
By reading this review if I am able to convince at least 2-3 readers, then I am happy that I have saved 2-3 lives.
All the best!
