Pros
There aren't any at Zenyum.
Cons
This feedback paints a concerning picture of the company's environment, particularly regarding its treatment of employees and the performance of upper management. - Compensation: Basic pay is at market rate with no bonuses or RSUs. Salary increments are minimal and closely guarded. There are instances of employees being denied their hikes despite getting a written agreement. - Work Flexibility: Work-from-home is only allowed on Wednesdays, limiting flexibility. What is agreed during offer time can be changed instantly by management. - Work Hours: Fixed office timings are enforced. - Career Progression: There is a lack of communication and opportunities regarding career advancement. - No SMEs running this firm: Upper management is often seen as unqualified and providing generic advice to their reports. - CEO: He is disconnected from employees' daily challenges, such as work-life balance, fair compensation, and career development. He often gives lectures about working for the pure joy of seeing Zenyum succeed but doesn't want to share RSUs with anyone apart from the executive board. - Lay-offs: Management always provides assurances in the aftermath that the remaining employees are the core team members. However, no one takes it seriously and anticipates the next round. - HR Department: The HR department is viewed as ineffective, yet it solicits reviews on Glassdoor, leading to skepticism about the authenticity of recent favorable reviews. Advice to Potential/New Employees: - I would recommend to continue looking for better job opportunities while considering a position or commencing work at this company. It's only a matter of time before it runs out of funding (the company is not profitable still).
