Tier 3 delusional shop pretending to be a Tier 1.
can someone tell if is it worth taking an internship here? openings? work culture?
Avoid Mumbai, Noida is a better option from an intern's POV.
Bullshit. They take a ton of NLUO kids. And NLUO is not is top 4 NLUs.
No stipend for non-NLU grads. Teams would make them work till 2 am in the night and not even reimburse for cab / travel
A lot of NLS grads reject the PPOs and rightly so!
Good teams in Saraf? All I know that Vaibhav Kakkar, Avirup Nag and Bikash team are good….

Any other teams to consider - please help.
There is barely half a team for capital markets!
There is only one partner (with no books) and one associate. Erstwhile partner moved to Indus last year on account of not been given the full bonus
Nonsense. Barely any work when compared to Manmeet. Saraf Disputes has lost its charm. The HR is desperately messaging A1s and A2s from other Noida offices fyi.
Please get your facts straight on tier I concept. They inflate the CTC and only give about 85% of the variable component after 1.5 years (as opposed to 1)
I think Saraf is a Band II firm but will be a Band I firm in 20 years. Saraf does not have any statesmen or highly regarded individuals, but it has a number of Band 1 and Band 2 lawyers.
It is only surviving on Luthra legacy. Saraf has no standing of its own otherwise
What do you expect? Its run by an ungrateful fellow who bit the very hand that fed him. Led to the demise of one of the most warm hearted persons ever. Him and the rest of his band of selfish backstabbing bottom feeders.
In terms of salary, T1. Better than many T1s in fact.
Extremely unprofessional. People who don’t get jobs elsewhere go to Saraf. Obviously something is better than nothing - hence go to Saraf then move to some Tier 1 firm after a year.
Saraf’s reputation is going down due to its delayed paying attitude. Reason can be twofold… one late payment and the another?
Again increments are delayed this year. Abysmal state of affairs. The truth is coming out - MS is and was nothing without late RKL.
What is the salary cycle of Saraf And Partners ? DO they pay that on time every month or it gets delayed?
How many leaves do they offer?
Khaitan NCR is looking to hire PAs, SAs and As for its corporate teams. If anyone is looking out, please reach out to the HR (Radhika Khandelwal) asap.

@Mod: Not that I disagree with the comment, but are you honestly looking to get another strike like the one that led to your infamous apology?
Situation is the same this year too. Bonuses are again delayed and even the appraisal forms that usually come in February haven't been shared yet. Not sure if the firm is not doing well but the approach to not share the pie is deplorable.
Bonus disbursed is way lesser than the promised bonus / as per the firm policy. Making profits on junior's labor is the firm's way to be profitable...
New bonus policy in S&P (with retrospective effect - and only for a few teams): 23.41% bonus in mid March. 3% more bonus before 31st March. And, the rest 74% in July (based on recovery).
No timelines for appraisal process. No clarity on the second tranche of bonus. Senior management is having a gala time making money at the cost of others. Highly unprofessional!
The managing partner has gone to the US on a "personal trip". Last FY's bonus (out of which only 25% were paid in March) will be finalised once he returns in July end. Can a firm be more unprofessional and la-la than this?!
On point. 70%+ of last FY's bonus is yet to be paid by the firm. There was no proper party as well on the four year anniversary of the firm!
Correction: bonus hasn't been disbursed even till date. It's already mid August. Nobody is revealing the correct date of disbursal. Can only sympathize with the retainers.
It's Diwali and still arrears are not cleared. Imagine
I am from Saraf and our team got arrears already...which team are you in?
