Pros

I cannot think for any pros while working with the company. This is simpy the worst company to work for.

Cons

Synup is a startup which is never gonna take off. They treat their employees very badly. The CEO is a very arrogant person and treats employees as servants and bullies them. The higher management people assign excessive work to people which makes their lives miserable. A startup should have a culture where one enjoys working, while Synup has just the opposite. You are deemed to hate working in startups if you ever join them. Although workload is high in startups as they are building a product, but they should atleast look after the planned vacations of employees. They don't allow employees for vacations and no weekends as well for guys working at Synup. They have people who want to boss around others and dont let others do their work effectively. The guys here can blackmail you to stay late nights and come to office on weekends(even if you have completed your share of work) else they will fire you. Some guys have even left the company without a job in hand, just because they were so much frustrated with Synup and they cracked huge companies like Amazon, DE Shaw. Believe me, you will start looking for a job change the day you join Synup so better save that and dont join at all. Even if this is the last company to employ you. According to me Synup is the WORST PLACE TO WORK for in India. Simply the WORST.

Good team environment and I've learned a lot about the tech sales industry here.

Some cross-department communication issues, sometimes it takes awhile for requests to process or tasks to be complete.

Pros

The team is great, the product is straightforward, and there's room for career growth. The company also has solid financials; consistently profitable and not relying on investor funds at this point

Cons

Engineering turnaround is prohibitively slow at times, and product frequently has issues, making the customer relationship more difficult to manage. Company culture could be stronger
