Pros

1. Talented co-workers with exceptional ideas 2. Every day is a learning opportunity if you have right perspective 3. Was a very nice company. Perfect startup culture and great atmosphere to encourage good work 4. Used to be a fun place 5. Learned that management can make or break a company regardless of having talented team

Cons

1. No Job Security. Employees who were promoted for good performance earlier are fired now because they are not good enough suddenly. More senior employees fired with lame reasons saying company cannot afford to pay your salary or that they cant multitask. No courage to be honest only. 2. Others resigned because of bad behaviour by top management 3. Employees who left are never replaced. Team size is half now and number of clients is same. This leads to unfair workload on remaining employees. 4. Even then remaining employees are publically insulted with bad remarks. Threatened to be fired regularly. 5. One of the co-founders has no decency. He is ill mannered with all employees, no respect for even girls. Repeated misbehaving with employees, too much ego to apologise also. 6. No work life balance. Expected to work on weekends, national holidays & late hours but no extra compensation for that. Employees use own resources. 7. False advertisement on facebook faking cool work culture

Hey, Thanks for sharing your feedback. We are not perfect but we are trying. I will sincerely request you to share instances about bad behaviour so that we can identify them and ensure that it does not happen. Just responding to few cons - 1) Job security - We respect and promote people who are hungry, want to do exceptional work. There is no place for anyone who can sit on past laurels, and it applies to everyone, even the co-founders and senior management. 2) We have interviewed more than 20 people in last 2 weeks and offers are being rolled out. Having learnt our lessons, we are ensuring we get the right set of people who can take this company to world class exceptional level.s 3) We do not expect anyone to work on weekends or holidays. We are in the industry of Digital Marketing and Social Media, which calls for more efforts during festivals and holidays due to campaigns by clients. Rest of the things are too vague or inconsistent in your feedback. I will sincerely request you to share details so that we can take any appropriate action. Wish you the best.

Pros

Review: Joined last year and it's been great: Pros: Flexible Work Options: Working from home has been fantastic. It boosts productivity and supports a healthy work-life balance. Supportive Management: The leadership team is incredibly supportive and provides excellent guidance. Their open-door policy fosters transparent communication. Global Projects: Contributing to global projects has been a fantastic learning opportunity, offering exposure to diverse cultures and work practices. Overall, it's been a rewarding experience. Looking forward to more growth ahead!

Cons

Communication Hiccups: Our chats can be like a game of charades with emojis. We spend more time figuring out what they mean than talking about work. Overall, it's been a year of laughs and learning. Work can be surprisingly entertaining! Looking forward to more funny moments and growing in my career.
