Toxic work culture, US teams over power the Offshore one

Analyst 3

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Tech is latest in Indian office. Office is tempting. Reimbursement and office facilities are better than most other companies in BLR.

Cons

Work culture is toxic, HR policies are set as per service based companies not flexible like product based companies. Location of India office is in a very remote place. India colleagues are not treated as equals with the US ones, always be seen as contactors while on projects. Work pressure is high and there are no fixed working hours, GSC (Indian) colleagues are asked to be available at late night hours with US teams and early morning hours as well despite of any shift you've taken officially.

Pros

Fun work environment for HR, Marketing, R&D, and Executive Teams. Great Marketing and Executive Teams/Admins to work for!

Cons

Upper Management changes every year, if not more often. Promotes Inexperience Politically and Ignores Real Experience. Expects quality, but doesn't want to do what it takes to achieve it.

Pros

Great name to have on your resume. You can use it to your advantage once you can’t tolerate the company’s toxic culture any longer. My experience at 7-Eleven was proof of the enduring nature of the human spirit: that an individual can work in a hateful, racist, homophobic, misogynist environment for almost a decade before reaching their breaking point. The good news is that people who have been mistreated for so long after spending years driving results and innovation at 7-Eleven are getting wise to the fact that they can do better elsewhere and make far better money.

Cons

The CEO needs to retire. He sets the tone and it’s very toxic. I’m all for supporting veterans, but when the team is constantly reminded that the CEO went to West Point you can just see the collective eyeball roll of the rank and file in the audience. The buyout of Speedway was a marriage made in hell… many of the folks from Speedway acted like their company bought 7-Eleven and not the other way around. Meanwhile, 7-Eleven continues to hedge its bets on future success by hiring castoffs from JCPenney’s HQ and the former Pier 1 HQ… not sure why 7-Eleven thinks these are the talented brain trust who will continue to propel 7-Eleven forward since they weren’t able to save the companies they came from. The company’s lack of diversity is frightening, but is to be expected when the company is run by a staunch conservative Republican. What once was a “good ‘ol boys” club is now an awful workday sorority of basic, middle-aged, suburban white women… who wants to join Kappa Kappa K@ren?!
