Pros
Just hybrid model but for few products only
Cons
- 🗓️ Weekend Workload: Developers must work two Saturdays a month and occasionally on Sundays during deployments. - ⏰ Deployment Stress: Mandatory 24-hour availability during deployment weeks, rotating every 2–3 months. - 📉 Unfair Appraisals: Performance reviews are grade-based, but top grades are rarely awarded and often decided last-minute by biased managers. - 🤦♂️ Toxic Management: Product teams like CKYC and Next are dysfunctional, with frequent blame-shifting—managers often scapegoat developers. - 💸 Low Salary Hikes: Increments are below industry standards, especially compared to MNCs. - 🧑💻 Exploitative Hiring: Developers are hired at extremely low packages (e.g., ₹2.5 LPA), which undervalues their role. - 🧠 No Learning Culture: There's little to no innovation or opportunity for skill development. - 🏢 Poor Leadership: The company operates like a family-run business, with chaotic and ineffective management. - ☠️ Overall Environment: The workplace is toxic, with unhealthy dynamics and little regard for employee well-being.
