WebEngage Reviews

Pros

I have been with WebEngage for almost 2 years now and the experience has been simply amazing throughout. Apt environment to work, learn and grow! Personally, I haven't had a single day where I saw a dip in my learning and being an enthusiastic start-up, it has always given a stage for employees to do wonders. One of the best places to work if you are a commitment driven individual, ready to grab opportunities and make it big!

Advice to Management

Should look at expanding in more geographies in order to achieve higher company level goals.
Keep trusting the in-house talent for higher roles as you always have.
Also, it is ok to detach a few in the long run who are not aligned with company's growth goals.

Pros

Pros

I’ve spent just about over a year here at WebEngage and I could write an essay about what makes this place awesome. The first remarkable thing about WebEngage is how young the team is. Young and bright, with the right amount of focus - chasing their professional and personal goals.
Everyone who has an ‘itch’ to prove themselves is encouraged to go pursue what they are seeking. It’s one of the pillars, WebEngage is built on. If you think you can do something new, something differently or something better; you will always be given the resources and necessary motivation to do so.
Ask anyone what they like about WebEngage and they will answer “Culture”. What is this culture? Percolating from the Founders to everyone else within WebEngage has an atmosphere and environment to learn and grow. Avlesh and Ankit are always available to enable you to grow.
I’m part of the Sales team and this is the most fun I’ve had working in any organization. The team is self-motivated and has the right amount of aggression to crack deals. That itself, speaks volumes of the leadership.
A major plus point with WebEngage are the clients. WebEngage boasts of some major businesses Online and Offline, globally, where great impact is being made. Working with such businesses are, insightful in itself.
Among other things there are a few small aspects which makes it fun working here - one of them is the Friday lunches. An hour where everyone catches up over lunch to banter or play a game of charades. The MACs!!, on-the-house snacks and the TT table to de-stress after talking to a particularly demanding client.
Overall, this place has a great environment to work! WebEngage is growing and ensuring that they take everyone along.

Advice to Management

None. You're doing a great job. Keep doing what you're doing. Keep valuing your people :-)

Pros

A respectful management.
A company with a long term carrier goal .
A company who's employees are valued .
A company which promotes employees growth by giving an opportunity .

Advice to Management

Sky is the limit.

Pros

Its like living a dream. There is enormous learning opportunity and exposure. You are free to take ownership, experiment new things on your own (probably similar to the Google 80-20 rule, they should make it official for all the teams)
One can see the passion for their startup in both the co-founders and some early employees which percolates down to others.

Advice to Management

Don't get blinded by the current growth pace. Its just the beginning, you have a lot more to innovate and disrupt. We all believe in you and each other.
You have had kickass teams and employees. Do not let them leave so easily.

Pros

I am writing this review because glassdoor doesn't let you view one unless you have added a review yourself.

- It's a great company. If you are in tech you should thank your stars for having been able to work under Ankit. This guy knows almost everything that is to be known about what he does. I am not a coder so I wouldn't really understand his actual forte but I would pay to listen to him. He had the best answer whenever I posed him any question.

- "Avlesh is a nice guy." Employees here do use this sentence to describe him and I know only few CEOs who ever manage to achieve this repute. You see culture of a company trickles down from its founders. So if they are sorted you got everything else covered.

- Clean, beautiful office, fancy office complex. Snacks, friday free lunch.

- Product is growing and so is clientele. They don't look at the investors with their tongue out for paying salaries. Having worked in such company I can tell you to disgust you feel.

Advice to Management

They just don't fire anyone. Never. This lets low performers stay in the team this just creates a safety bed for others who want to cut corners. You may be a solid high performing employee but if you see your peer getting away with minuscule KRA you would recalibrate your performance metric. Low performance is contagious and these guys don't get it.

Pros

One will definitely enjoy working here.
1.Great office,
2. amazing people,
3. the product is good( a little buggy, but has potential)
4. the engineering team is great
5. salary structure is pretty competitive.

Advice to Management

5. Just Awesome Work Life Culture Balance
6. Free Eateries: 365x24x7
7. Quite Flexible Work Timings
8. Lunch On The House Fridays ;)

Pros

I must admit. I feel compelled to write this review looking at the spate of negative reviews over the last few weeks. I feel its unwarranted and totally uncalled for. And all these negative reviews keep talking about some sort of doom or doomsday. Seriously?

Anyway, here goes.

1. Phenomenal learning: I’ve never experienced the kind of learning that I have at WebEngage in any of the companies I have worked at prior to WebEngage. And I have worked with startups as well as MNCs in the past. I see this phenomenal learning in almost every department at WebEngage. Almost all employees will attest to this.

2. Ownership: If you’re one who likes owning stuff and getting stuff done, this is the place you should work at. If you like being told what to do, please don’t think about joining WebEngage. As is common at a startup, we’re trying to make it work against all odds. We’re ramen profitable and hope to continue the same pace of growth without outside investments. This requires a high degree of ownership. If you’re ready to take complete ownership, you’ll go places. Not only is there a lot of learning, you also actually get to contribute directly to the success of the company.

3. Work culture: Work culture does not stop at free food, TT tables and the likes. Work culture is how you get treated by your colleagues, the kind of camaraderie that is there in the team, whether your feedback and opinions matter, whether you’re being mentored properly and so many other things. WebEngage has one of the best cultures you can find in any startup anywhere in the world. And I truly mean it. I know startups say this ad nauseam but you’ll have to take my word for it.

4. The true excitement of a startup: We’re not funded by millions from any VCs. We’re building a company based completely on cash flow. Money in. Money out. How many startups in India do that? While there might not be any big fat pay checks in WebEngage and that you normally see with the large B2C startups in India, the excitement that comes in WebEngage cannot be matched with that of many other startups in India. We’re trying to create something of value for the world here. Not India specific. We compete with global SAAS startups. Not just Indian startups. We’re creating things from scratch and we love doing what we do. Again, if you’re up for the challenge to create something and have a direct impact on the success of a startup, WebEngage is the place to be at. Believe you me, we will make it happen.

Advice to Management

None really. Please get rid of the cry babies in the team if we still have any more of those. We need people who believe in what we are trying to create and are up to the mission. Not a bunch of cry babies who leave the company and post anonymous reviews on Glassdoor. So passive aggressive.

To all the haters here, let bygones be bygones. We’re trying to nurture and build something of value here. The least you could do is not post such negative reviews which not only affect the current employees but also future employees who might be reading all this. If you have issues, please write to us. We want to improve and your feedback will help us getting there. Such public bashing does not help you or WebEngage in any way. Unless of course your only objective is to vent, let your frustrations out and try in some meaningless ways to affect the success of the company. And in that case, I feel for you. We have too many naysayers telling us we will not make it. Please join that gang. Everyone loves being a keyboard warrior and an armchair critic. You can be one too! And while you're at it, you can watch us make it.
