Pros

Upcoming business domain Challenging Engineering Problems to solve Potential to become awesome workplace (given senior mangement quality in bangalore is fixed) Work location & Office space is good

Cons

[All for Bangalore Location] Really mediocre upper management (Talks of highest quality but no ground action) Management not open to critique (punishing those who give actual critical feeedback) No transparency (authoritarian work style by top guys in bangalore) Very bad work environemnt (you're just a resource and not a team member) Employees fired without a valid reason (due to personal vendetta). I left the company myself before same could've happend with me. Focus is on removing reviews from Glassdoor rather than fixing the underlying problems. Pay raise is slightly below market standards

Pros

In our highly collaborative work environment, we cultivated a strong sense of community where everyone genuinely cared about the experiences of our candidates and employees.

Cons

One downside of working in a startup is the risk of investing significant effort in closing a search, only to have it abruptly affected by changes in funding or staffing needs.

Pros

For a startup this company is doing better than some larger tech companies in terms of mature operating models and investing in tools to drive efficiency. This company is truly building something innovative and ground breaking. The team is staffed with stellar individuals who have stayed scrappy, and are always willing to pivot as needed to deliver results. Executive leadership is transparent, They welcome feedback and ideas with an open mind and truly look to its people. There are no egos here. Other than no wellness stipend or 401k match, the benefits are great. As a working parent I appreciate the unlimited/flexible PTO.

Cons

Communication around internal processes and changes between teams is a bit disconnected. We need more real time updates and documentation for our SOPs. I know we are working on closing many gaps though and have a positive outlook.
