Pros

Provides really good lunch. Most of the colleagues are good people.

Cons

- management: The company is run by a bunch of hypocritical bureaucrats who thinks that they literally own you. Employees are forced to work late nights and weekends without being compensated in anyway - annual pizza's and pint of beer doesn't count. - work-life balance: It's a joke. There is none. Have you heard of those Chinese worker camps? - Extremely biased and Misogynistic: Number of female developers in the company alone proves that - there are more Eskimos in Africa. Favouritism and nepotism is zealously practised. - Work space/environment: Its a wagon tragedy. There is too little space and too many developers. Besides, managers who run around like those Reich commanders in Stalingrad makes it even worse. Too noisy to do any cognitive task. Even though most of the colleagues are good, there are a few - especially higher up - who can ruin it for everyone. It often feels like some fight for a lead role in a cage. - pay: Your salary almost always depends on how much power you have while negotiation, and how good you are at selling yourself even when you add zero value. Besides some of the newbies are paid terrible low, and are being chained with a 2 year bond. Also, a part of you pay is bonus, which is often used to terrorize you to work harder. - notice period: A never-heard-of-before 3 months notice period is being practised to chain people here. It pretty much makes sure that its hard for you to find another job. And I think that its one of the core reasons why people are stuck in this company. If it is made any shorter all most everyone will leave. - celebrations: its just a cheap parlour-trick. Tricks the employees into thinking that they care, while all they want is colourful pics for their shiny social media pages. Probably a good way to attract people who cares about those fake niceties companies do. Basically its run like one of those East India Company ventures in 19th century British colonies. Unless one is too desperate for a job, find something else.

Pros

- Free Lunch and Snacks. - Co founders are really good. - Nice problems to solve. But, there is a catch in the company in this regard. The entire tech stack and the solutions have a lot of Jugaad. With simple steps, there entire servers go down in a second. They do not care about the international standards made for everyone.

Cons

- The company used to be very good back near 2016. There used to be nice workplace, lots of mind boggling events used to happen, fun / social activities, team outing at least twice a year. Over time, they are now nothing to boast about. Team outing has been 0. If you put your head against this wall for a month, you get a budget of 500 per person and that to for a half day only. - Pathetic HR and their policy. They release pay slip when your next month's salary is about to be credited. That is, they release pay slip in a months time. - For 2 years, they have released form 16 2/3 days before the deadline assigned by the Government. 2017 was even worse. They released wrong form and that too digitally unsigned, which is mandatory for any company to do. Upon checking and multiple followup mails and phone calls, from almost all the tax paying employees, they released fresh ones on the extended dates after July 31st. - They have a consultant HR in this company who keeps on pressurising everyone to come before 10 AM and work beyond 9 PM at least and threatens the salary will be cut otherwise. And they have eventually started cutting down the salary from the last quarter of 2017. - He is trying to make policies, like this: "If it is about work, you should know, this is a startup and a very small team. You need to work day and night. In all other cases, this is a MNC. You should have some manners." - So much of micro - management and mis - trust. - Every weekend, you will get to work. They say, you must take a day off if you have worked on weekend. And when you will ask manager for leave, he will say, he is working, and so you must also be working. This is a full and proper imbalance on work life and personal life. - When someone is hired, this is a culture in this company which they call honeymoon period. And no one will interact with you in this period. Especially the managers, they will behave like a new alien has come. You will have a solidity life. And this period goes on like 45 days approximately. - Very biased leads and managers. - Managers keep on shouting as if employees are slaves. - Few managers (few who are from US), makes a lot of personal comments. Which is very pathetic from a professional perspective. - Very dirty workplace. Rats keep on moving every where. You need to depend on your own cleaning of cubicle desk before you start in the morning. - Recently, they have fired almost 31 people in a month's time citing various reasons. Though it was very clear to everyone, that the projects are now nearly ready and need just the supports, and that they now need a limited head counts for there new office space. - The hike in the company has also worsened, from the range of 40% to the range of 5-9%.

Pros

Nothing Nill -it is not a company but a factory where worker or slaves work

Cons

Full of politics bad work culture ,without any reason you can get fire .If you are not saluting your MD or Boss then you will be of no where . If your boss smoke you must have to smoke else you can't adapt to the work culture. Lunch or Dinner or party is quite common but your boss drink the you must have to drink even though you are a Muslim or a girl or women other wise you can adjust to their work culture
