Pros

There isn't anything better than other companies.

Cons

Work-Life Balance: The current environment demands long hours, leading to a significant imbalance between professional responsibilities and personal time. Boundaries are frequently crossed outside of standard working hours. Internal Dynamics: Bureaucracy and internal politics heavily impact daily operations, which can hinder productivity and team cohesion. Team Specifics (FCC): The culture within the FCC division is particularly challenging. Due to a toxic atmosphere and a lack of structured mentorship, it can severely impact employee morale and self-confidence. Professional Development: There are limited opportunities for skill acquisition or technical growth within this specific group, making it difficult to advance professionally.

Pros

1. The tech stack you get to work at Flipkart is probably one of the best in the country. 2. You get to work on microservices while also staying close to the infra. 3. The tech stack varies from team to team but in general, good tech is used in each org.

Cons

1. At times, work-life balance takes a major hit, commonly a few weeks before the sale events when there is deployment freeze and even the smallest of deployments have to go thorugh a large chain of approvals.
