Pros

The technical team is second to none. Their challenge is, direction. Technology updates are done at the whim of executives. Essentially a solution waiting for a problem. Custom one-offs with limited success in delivery of solutions

Cons

Constrained technology forces them to put bandages on clunky software builds that are buggy and hard to manage. The underlying code is a mess of statements a low level programmer could create and as mentioned, this is a tinker toy for an executive who already made his millions.

Pros

There are no pros. if you have close friends, you will have to do nothing; you will just talk non-sense and get a high salary. If you don't have any partners in crime, you will end up doing work without any acknowledgment. The management does not care what you do.

Cons

The developers in the past built some junk, and the current developers keep on adding more junks to the product. This is the loop of unending engineering rot. All the developers, from top to bottom, are completely naive and incompetent; only one or two junior engineers (fresh graduates) are promising, but they end up developing some unreadable, un-maintainable junks, because their senior leaders tell them to do that way. If you are a competent engineer, never imagine of joining this company. Complete nepotism. They promoted some engineers to senior roles who do not qualify for even a junior SWE role in a decent startup. Their only qualifications are that they developed some junks for 5-6 years and they kept on talking non-sense to the worthless and incompetent management. (This is generally true for almost all the senior engineers in the Indian teams).

Terrible Management

Pros

Despite subpar executive, technical, and product leadership, the culture was great until they brought in new sales leadership (former Oracle) from outside the data integration space who didn't understand how to sell this product and tried to create a miniature Oracle.

Cons

Poor vision from Executive leadership, excuses and finger-pointing from Technical/Product leadership, and a horribly conceived and poorly executed growth/GTM strategy from the new (and now former) Sales leadership. Nepotism has also led to people assuming roles that they have no business being in.
