Sokrati Employee Reviews about "work culture"

Pros

A lot of pros to think of: 1) Work-Life Balance. 2) Salary on time 3) HR takes care of Employee Engagement 4) Flexible work culture and 5 days working 5) Round the Year Appraisal pattern and hence no need to wait for the annual cycle 6) Best opportunity to learn and grow in case you are a fresher 7) Performance-driven philosophy and literally no politics 8) People are young, friendly, out-going and passionate about what they do.

Cons

Just a couple of things that I believe could be worked upon: 1) Cab facility to be introduced 2) The lunch quality of the Cafeteria should be made better.

Advice to Management

The firm is in its peak expansion-stage and making it big in the target market. Hence, it would be ideal to inculcate some degree of Process-Orientation in day-to-day operations and support-functions. Although we aim to keep the start-up culture intact however there's a need for managing Change and realign the practices keeping in mind the rapid pace we are growing with.

Pros

Flexible environment, nice colleagues, healthy work culture, friendly management , good place to learn & grow

Cons

Lengthy interview process, bad canteen, no employee engagement, no defined processes,

Advice to Management

Work on their attrition rate

Pros

Amazing and diverse learning in the presently nascent field of digital marketing in India. Huge responsibilities, which if not taken overwhelmingly, is helpful for gaining individual knowledge.

Cons

Extreme lack of mamagement structure. No value given to employees. Seemingly friendly work culture where the toxicity comes to form as days pass by. No bridge between Business Development team and the Operations team. Laughable SLAs, deadlines and work pressure to every individual- the work is piled up as long as the person starts to break. Extremely insufficient infrastructure, which is unimaginably cumbersome and getting increasingly so with the huge influx of new joinees. There's no provision of replacement when employees resign- if 2 people leave a certain team, the number of accounts they were handling are distributed by the rest, which explains why the attrition rate is as dismal. The initiatives taken by the HR to improve work-life balance (after unanimously being coaxed by employees to comment on) is ZERO. Instead, the issue is treated with mockery. To make matters worse, the company is getting desperate to retain employees- with brute force methods such as announcing bogus and far fetched incentive schemes but doubling/tripling of notice period effective from the day of announcement. No respite even on Saturdays and Sundays.

Advice to Management

good work culture and peer group

Advice to Management

Quater review should be implemented

Pros

Many responsibilities, lot of exposure

Cons

No proper training, expect you to know everything. Toxic work culture.. You're often working 9am-9pm. Everyday you will have midnight tasks. Weekends are non existent. You work over 65 hours a week minimum. If you don't then everyone thinks you're lazy. No matter how much you work it is never enough. You cannot have a life outside work. No time for Family, friends or any hobbies. Worst part is no one is there to guide you properly. No wonder drop out rate is so high. No one can last over a year.

Pros

Sokrati has provided an ideal platform to nurture and build digital marketing leaders of tomorrow. I personally attribute a large part of my growth to the 27 months spent at Sokrati. The work culture is meritocratic and high octane. For those who would love to learn Digital marketing fundamentally and who would like to burn the midnight oil to achieve excellence, go for it!

Cons

If you are not passionate to learn and work hard, then Sokrati is not the place for you.

Advice to Management

Keep building!

Pros

- Great work culture - Best employees and people to work around with - A great place to learn and explore.

Cons

- It's up to you how you look at it. For me there's none.
