Pros
1. A top marketing company that became a tech company by accident. The management, especially the co-founders, seem better suited for politics than running a business. 2. Once the best company to work for, it has now become a good company to quit and leave behind. 3. It’s a good place to work only if you have less than three years of experience; only they won't raise any questions.
Cons
1. Glassdoor Reviews: - Employees, both new and departing, are often encouraged (or pressured) to leave positive reviews, which inflates the company's Glassdoor ratings. - Negative reviews often reflect the real experiences of employees. - Genuine critical feedback is often buried under a wave of positive reviews. 2. Employee Influence: - The company is heavily influenced by a core group of around 40 employees (including co-founders and key pillars), along with select managers. - Company policies are frequently adjusted or overlooked to cater to this group’s preferences, creating an environment of favoritism. 3. Credit Theft: - A select group of employees tends to dominate recognition, often at the expense of others’ efforts. - Key employees take credit for others' hard work, hiding behind terms like “meritocracy” while controlling all outcomes. It’s always "you vs. the inner circle." 4. Randomized Appraisals & Benefits: - Performance evaluations and rewards are inconsistent, often disregarding an employee’s actual contributions. - Career progression and recognition seem tied more to the project you are assigned to (e.g., Medtronic, Roche, Netsmart) than to your performance or experience. - Share distribution appears arbitrary, with loyalty often overlooked. In some cases, surprising decisions—like promoting an employee on notice as a co-founder—raise concerns about fairness. Loyalty is literally a joke to them. 5. Unclear Resource Management: - Employees are frequently reassigned from projects where they excel to roles outside their expertise, without clear reasoning. - This practice can lead to misalignment, frustration, and even forced exits (through PIPs and eventual terminations), regardless of an employee’s tenure or skill set. 6. Managerial Practices: - Promotions and salary increases are sometimes given without clear justification, often benefiting those close to managers. Double promotion's, change in designations have became usual thing benefitted only to favourites. - Some managers prioritize results over employee well-being, creating a challenging and unsupportive work environment. 7. Five-Year Car Benefit: - The much-advertised car benefit upon completing 5 years is misleading. Employees receive ₹4 lakhs, which is insufficient to purchase a car. - Employees are required to purchase a car, often leading them to take out additional loans, placing financial strain on them.
