This is that kind of company where you will feel "you made a big mistake joining here".
Here HR's, Manager's all sound the same. You work hard for clients day and night.
and then comes hike period. 4 to 6 months before your manager and hr start giving you not 1 or 2 but dozens of training, certifications and assessments.

Technically it's not about your upgrading skills, they know you dont have time  to complete all of it...because clients are behind your ... for escalating small small things.

When you ask why you didnt get hike even after their is no one bad remark from client, they question where are the assessments , you say i even got positive appreciation from clients, so your manager will tell then where it is in writings...

why didnt you record or store those appreciation in writings...at this level you realize these guys just playing with your career..

No good projects.
Frequent POC of 2-3month and after that on bench.
Very few long term projects.
Many un happy clients, trust me.
Unprofessional employees, they passed out from college and got here and will not leave till they die why because they are Localite.
No process, bus kaam ho raha hai na chalne do. 
They even can't speak in client calls why communication is zero.
Unethical way of sending mails and team communication.
No value for talent.
Mandatory food deduction from CTC, which is sh**t.
No toilet papers in washrooms.
People who are here from their college campus placement,think they own company and will direct you even if you are more experience in every way and manager also unwillingly have to support because he know account manager or delivery head  and will escalate.
And people here escalate more in emails than actually working.
Unprofessional, uneducated, unethical.

Good Place to work.
Good Culture.

As a business Analyst i had to attend lot of meetings take trainings on my subject matter.Daily we had to face a new challenge so, can say every day had something new and innovative to learn sometime out my expertise also.The work culture of persistent was amazing and very cooperative.
Only part of my job which was bit hard though i used to enjoy it was to make the technical guys understand about clinical research and about the requirement of any new proposed products for clinical research.
The most enjoyable part of my job was that i get to meet lot of learned people and learn new and innovative technologies.

What is the best part of working at the company?
At the time of joining you may get good Hike

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Most of the Decisions will be taken at Head Office Pune irrespective of situation / standards present in the other location

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Work Environment is Good. Culture replicates Head Office. No Family Invite even on Annual Day, will not receive even a Diwali gift / Sweet Box.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Day Starts with work, Then Company Provided lunch(For which 42K will be deducted from your CTC irrespective of your like / dislike), Day Ends with Evening Snacks (Simple ones)

1. Job Security - You may lose your job if you are on bench for even 1 month.

2. You may not receive any increment for for 1.5 years. They do not consider employee for increment if you have joined after September. So, lets say if you joined in October 2021 then your 1st increment will be in July 2023 which is 22 month later and there is no mid term increment.

3. Shift allowances are very low.

4. They deduct salary from your CTC for providing food in campus. The food is very simple vegetarian without any menu option. Many employees prefer eating outside even though their salary is deducted for food.

5. HRs are bad and do not reply to your queries.

My job is typically 9 hours and 5 days a week, I test applications manually and use automation skill also.
Its very challenging and everyday I learn something new about technology, networking, proxy servers that gives me work satisfaction and happiness.
I am a module lead, so there are 3 reportees for them I have to prepare work status sheet and keep track for their work. I am responsible to communicate to the client for giving updated and collecting new changes.
The hardest part is dead lines sometimes but we never ever got failed to deliver on time.
When we are able to achieve the goal and get appreciations from seniors and client, becomes the most enjoyable part.

- Had tough times learning each and every new technologies which are coming up frequently but that helped me being flexible in work.

- These new technologies were ruling the IT industry so, it was good to be as part of those projects at a very initial level of their developments.

- Worked with diverse teams in R&D departments in Openstack, also with several Large scale clients, but never felt the work pressure or deadline fear as we work on POC's and specific product development sectors. As we had the opportunity to have work life balance along with productivity management.
