Pros

Enablement team (Jeremy), was amazing. Good Colleagues, Good Managers. Amazing promises made, and good waste of time. Product was good.

Cons

Indian HR team is the worst HR team I have witnessed in my career, ANU tried to made our lives difficult by making sure that we are not fed properly, she even made negative remarks about woman safety in an open forum without realising the repercussions of making such comments. Logistic was pathetic, every day cab issues and team couldn't manage it. Unachievable targets, no one even did 50%(consistently) in the last 1 year, also there was no guidance provided, no strategies, and US manager and Director intervened a lot, tried to micromanage each hour, and we faced a lot of discrepancies in terms of opportunities. The promises made during hiring wasn't fulfilled. They didn't even let us serve notice period. Policies kept changing for Indian employees as per convenience. We were asked to come to office everyday with no snacks, unhealthy food. Although they promised flexibility, remote, then later hybrid and what not!
