HoonarTek

I worked at Hoonar Tekwurks full-time, It is a bucket of s***. Don't play wit your life.

Pros
1) Good Salary, which attract people towards hell

Cons
1) Worst project & program managers
2) Less projects with company, mostly they are working on POC & bidding for projects (which they never get) based on POC's.
3) Without requirement completion Management force Developers/Testers to complete the task.
4) Worst Exit policy, with no work they ask employees to serve 3 months notice period
5) Worst HR management.

Highly advise do not work for them.

Employee engagement, twin day, cricket match, football match... need I say more?

People with negative approach, always complaint about things cause they don' want to work hard... Hoonar still has quite a few of these people, who once gone will be the best place to work!

I have worked with HoonarTek for around 2 yrs and would like to share my experience with you so that you guys can judge Hoonartek's policies and work culture.

I started my career with Hoonartek in year 2013 and after completing my training was put into development within 2months. It's really great that you get exposure to live projects within such a short period. My friends in MNC's have been working as support for more than a year too agree that startup is a good platform for freshers becoz they can't afford to keep you on bench. Quarterly hikes, cool work culture, sports, events and many more. I really enjoy working here. Highly recommended for freshers. You will get to learn a lot from highly knowledgeable Abinitio experts. Managers are always ready to help you.

People there in middle management form there own group and they call it as CORE COMITTE. Truley speaking they don't do anything and troubles the juniors.
Some of them call them self as F**king Architect and cannot event write simple scripts.
Hell management, girls with while skin have priority in promotion and increment.

The nightmare for all IT resources to plan joining startup companies like Hoonartek.

Agreed this company is the worst. Will never join startup in my life.

Work environment is not good at all, full of politics and corrupt managers. If they don't have work in any project, they will put you in Performance Improvement Plan so called PIP and give you most typical work so that you wont be able to do. After 2-3 weeks, they will call you for a meeting and will say today is your last working day as we are not satisfied with your performance. They will never say that we don't have any work in projects, they will say your performance is not good that's why we don't want to continue with you and you can search for a new job.

This is the worst company in terms of job security. They have some key resources, every time they assign projects to them only. If you don't get any work or project, then you are responsible for not getting into projects. But in every company, mangers assign work to developers. Here, mangers say that you don't come to us for work so how would we know that you are a non-billable resource and its your duty to come to us every time for work. If some body goes to his manager, he will say right now we don't have any project to assign and once work will come we'll definitely call you, but in reality they don't call any one.

You will feel frustrated in few months if you join because work culture is too worst. They fire people very often. About 60% of employees leave this company within 1 year of their joining. Attrition rate is too high...

Never join this company ever. You can work on low salary package in any CMMI level 5 company but job security is must...

Jibin J. & Nicky W.

I don't know who are you, I guess you are either the owners of this company for sick SAM
Or AA.

You don't have the balls to tell the truth.
Please tell about 2 years bond that you make freshers sign, please talk about documents that you keep as security for freshers
Please talk about employees that you fire without cause.

I am one of the victims of this company.
Because of your small gains like bonuses, please don't spoil life of others

Please be scared of god and don't spoil other lives, I totally agree to James, all he has said about this company is true.

All the negativity about this company is less, will add my part and help others to get the **** away from this company.
They call them HoonarTekWurks, meaning Talent (what a joke). The whole company is a joke, or to be more precise its worst nightmare one can have multiply 16 GB.

They have 70 odds resources (in 5 years) of which 70% constitutes freshers, reason, no seniors joins them. So what they do, they trap freshers and get them to sign bond for 2 years and torment them.
All the good resources of "once upon a time", have left Hell Tekwurks, they wanted to change the system, the system changed their lives, bechare. But all who have left this company with tears in their eyes, are now living a happy life full of content and fulfillment.
This company has some very good people too, but they dont have a say. Because of SAM

About SAM
They have 3 managers (I call them uncle SAM). You can learn a lot from them, like how to lick A**, how to be e-tattlers, how to ruin someones career, how to make someones live leaving hell, just to name a few.

What you cant learn from them is:
Technology: I guess they dont know the meaning too.

One manager is very hilarious guy, he has done everything in his life what you can think of, he has even been to countries that dont exist. His talent is Bakchodi (biggest). He is a thing.

The other guy is, I dont know what he is, and I guess he is the biggest lick master of Management. He is the worst. Does nothing, but forces all his work on you, and takes credit for it. If he has done some blunder, he passes the blame to his resources. Idiot fellow.

The last one he is blank space (not secured about his job, so ruin others)

To make it more interesting SAM has their disciples, I call them the A Team

God they know how to ruin someones life. Hell yeah I am out of this company with least suffering, they have made people cry.
I dont want to talk about the owners, its because of them this is happening. The architects (the bogeyman)

Talent has no place in this company.

There is one idiot guy(at some higher post), I curse him every day, may god make him suffer like he makes other suffer, may he get hemorrhoids with no cure, then he will realize what it means to play with employees life. He is the guys who plays with your hard earned money, and ruins your life. He deducts your salary to increase his own bonus I guess.
This company has worst policies because of this fellow.
There is no leadership in this company, they want to make quick money, by hook or crook.

The HR department is the most disgusting department of this company. 50 % of your salary is variable pay, even if they hire you with fixed salary package, they change that to variable, saying the company policies have changed.

This is the only company were you have to pay once you leave & they do your FnF settlement after 4.5 months. With no salary for 3 months.

Policies:
They change policies every day and everyone as a different policy.
Its complete anarchy which means they can bring new policies with back dates effect, a policy introduced of May is effective from January.
If you ask for salary rise, you get warning letter.
If you ask for leave you get abuses

Appraisal System at HellTek
Work your $#*! of all day night, and if you dont lick SAMs $#*! you are under evaluation for under-performance
Or, dont work at all and lick SAMs $#*!, promotion
And if you were given some bonus, you have to return it back if you resign

So, guys you can decide, If you still plan to join this company, ask for their policy document and they will not give you, stating its company policy. WTF

Pros:
If you are very happy and have never seen agony, join Hoonartek oops sorry Hell Tek.
If you care about money and are ready to surrender your self-respect & your will, join them

If you are having less than 4 years experience, please dont join this company, you will cry for mercy that is my promise to you.
4-6 years guys are safe somewhat, but the whole game is played by SAM and the Policy guy.

They send you to SA on tourist Visa which is for 3 months, but they use it for 6 months, and when you come back, you have to say in company for 9 months, and then you can resign and serve notice period for another 3 months. If you resign prior you end up paying 3-4 Lac, with no explanation
They keep you like beggars at onsite, no car, they will dump two guys in one flat. Your sole purpose is to make them money, and they pay worst allowance in the market
Nobody goes twice to onsite, those who go I guess have no self-respect for themselves or may have some issues.

From the day you resign your life becomes hell, they will ruin you self-respect, make you cry and for next 4.5 months they dont pay you and your FnF is never full, and you feel so happy leaving the company that you dont go back and ask for your money.

Guys, dont join & ruin your life.

BEST of luck for you Job search.

By the way, there is no job security, they only have one client and the remaining clients are 1,2 id clients, so they can fire you anytime without notice, they have done it, they will do it again, because they have no shame.

They only have clients in SA, the other countries address location are hoax, I dont know why there is no scrutiny of these companies, they wright anything in their site.
I guess they are under cost cutting measures, there site is not ready from last 6 months

Think about it guys, before you join.

I joined Hoonartek in 2020, working as part of their UK business for UK and EMEA clients I also work closely with the Pune leadership team on a day to day basis and the majority of the staff on our teams are sourced from Pune. Very high level of technical expertise and management maturity/pragmatism. I especially value the lack of politics - in my experience Hoonartek staff and management work together very positively to deliver high quality to our clients and to support/mentor our colleagues. After a 20+ year career working for the big global systems integrators I'm finding Hoonartek to be a fantastic break from politics because my colleagues really care about the client's success. The proof is in the strong growth that Hoonartek has achieved and the high rate repeat business where happy clients come back to us to start new projects.

Hoonar tekwurks is the worst company I have ever worked. Managers are pathetic. There is no professionalism, there is no policy, there is too much politics. The managers treat people like slaves, and they have different policy for each employee. They don't care for your personal life, they insult you on floor in front of everyone. They write nasty emails, threaten you, and they keep employees in deep depression. They are surviving on few SA clients. They don't have much clients.

They treat very bad once they send you onsite. They think if they are giving you salary they are doing big favor to you. The HR team has no clue and control on $#*!ing managers. HR Team bluff while hiring you, don't trust them. There are few managers who control everything, these people have formed their groups and tried best to spoil your life and they don't allow anyone to grow. They keep insulting you, they won't give you promotion and hike and their bonus system is hilarious. Their CTC is fake, bonus component is big part of CTC, and that bonus you never get in this company. The worst company to work.
There is serious mindset problem in this company.

Not recommended to anyone unless you don't want to suffer like HELL.

Please don't join this org. An honest advise coming through experience and sufferings..
