Pros

1. Good work-life balance because things move so slow here, you will not have much work to do most of the time 2. Job security 3. Negotiate well and you will get a big fat pay-check (significant hike) while joining, because they have a really hard time hiring decent people, (forget getting good people to join them)

Cons

1. No sense of direction at any management level 2. Decisions changes over-night without explanation if the senior leaders are asked to do it 3. No accountability for any team 4. Non-existent to no growth opportunity. No promotions 5. Forget hikes, people here are made ineligible for appraisals because they joined the org 10 days late in a financial year, so all the work you do for the rest 355 days goes out of the window 6. No learning and individual growth, tech stack is old and outdated-Engineers won't get job outside if they keep working on these legacy systems, operations team focus only on fire-fighting and there is no plan and vision for scaling up, design teams are bashed on social media for copying designs of other fashion designers and labels. You will hear 10 excuses why a thing can't be done, unless you are in a leadership position, then people will be bending backwards to follow your orders 7. Lot of internal politics. In-fighting going on within team and across teams. Half of your focus goes towards it 8. Non-existent "culture" 9. Leaders love micro-managing stuff here 10. HR knows only about arranging tournaments and rangoli competition. No real work being done for employee benefit by them. They will forward you all the email and reminders to regularize your attendance 11. You have to "punch-in" and "punch-out" like factory workers for your attendance. If you forget doing it, forget your salary for that day 12. Mumbai is the real decision maker, Bengaluru team sits like pawns ready to jump at the command of Mumbai 13. Technology running the e-com is of stoneage... The first reply you will hear from tech team is "It can't be done" - everything is impossible for them. Site crashes and tumbles like a house of cards under the slightest increase of load in consumer traffic In-short, join if you don't mind working in a culture less, employee unfriendly org. Don't join if you have serious career ambitions and goals TLDR > "Don't Join"
