Pros

Technology is good. Finance team is good

Cons

There is no work life balance. Good work means staying late, even if you are not doing anything. Coming on time and leaving on time is frowned upon, even if one is completing all his/her tasks on time. Some managers are really hard to work with because of their micro-management and bossy attitude. HR is not helpful, escalation of issues is mostly futile. No work from home option Manager waste time in meetings and politics.

Pros

It’s a good company to gain experience and to grow with long term. Room for advancement.

Cons

It’s a start up location so it’s not as established in routine. There’s a lot of figuring things out as you go which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. It’s a learning experience for every employee.
