I worked at Pepper Square full-time (More than a year)
Pros
1. They will give you opportunities, empower you to grow at work and personally as well. I started my career here and I have seen myself growing in the two-year span.
2. As a female employee, living alone in a big city. I personally felt so safe working here. The management makes sure about the safety of there employees.
3. They care about the work-life balance.
4. The company has a vision and it keeps re-inventing itself to work towards the goals.
5. One of the rare companies where the Founder and the COO of the company will sit with you one on one and not just give their valuable feedback but takes your feedback as well for what they can improve in the system.
6. They know the importance of workplace hygiene and they keep it clean.
7. Thursday lunches are a bonus!
Cons
The company should organize more fun activities so the employees get to know each other better and engage more.
Application
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Pepper Square (Bengaluru) in April 2019.
Interview
Interview had 5 rounds in total .
Round-1 was telephonic screening .
Round-2 was technical screening by senior Engineer who knew technology very well.
Round -3 was take home assignment which was well planned to check Customisation of UI , performance and concurrency which would test your iOS development skills to core .
Round 4 - was discussion on the assignment, where the interviewer tries to gauge your iOS skills and gives feedback.
Round -5 was with CTO which was managerial round.
Overall tech panel is well formed with humble and bright senior Engineer.
Strange thing was after clearing all the rounds HR took the necessary docs to release the offer letter and offer letter wasn't released after following up , I was told by the Hr that she would get back to me in 2 days even after a week I didn't get response. Wrote a follow up mail to HR even that's in vain NO REPLY!!.
Overall I wouldn't recommend any person to give interview for any technical role even though company has brightest engineers and a well formed tech pannel , I'm pretty sure you wouldn't get any response after you clear your interviews.
Had high hopes on the process and company because the so much positive reviews on Glassdoor until the end.
Advice to the management would be please respect everyone's time and effort.
HAVE A COURTESY TO RESPOND TO CANDIDATES AFTER FINAL INTERVIEWS WITH A FIRM DECISION , DON'T COLLECT ANY DOCUMENTS FOR DISPATCHING OFFER LETTER WHEN YOU HAVEN'T MADE YOUR DECISION OR HAVE NO INTENSION TO DO SO .
