Pros

Colleagues are the best, I guess the only good thing here

Cons

- Compensation for work: You won't be paid anything for the extra hours that you have to work. But your salary will be deducted even if you are late by a minute. You will have no work- life balance. Don't even think of challenging this unless you wanna leave the job. - Creative Ideas: Oh wow, these are not even welcome here. Whatever the CEO says is final. Why are people of different skills hired for then? You're literally gonna be a worker here, just following orders. - Expendability: Employees are expendable here. Doesn't matter if you're newly joined or working for years, if you've irked the management they will find a reason to remove you. I've seen so many colleagues leave during my work period here. The attrition level is incomparable. Then there's the notice period of 3 months( yes that long). It just shows their inability to hire new people. - Attitude towards employees: Employees are shouted at and insulted by the CEO in front of everyone for the smallest of mistakes (even the ones who've just joined a week ago). It's a blame game here, you're are gonna be blamed for everything that went wrong. Management will not support you even if it was their decision that caused the problem. Also no recognition of people who are actually doing their jobs. - Indecision: There will be no proper decision for things that need to be implemented in a project. This will be the case for every project up until the day of release. - Salary: Very less compared to other companies even when the company is doing good. I know someone will reply to this review and say that we do not lure employees by salary or bribe them. Dude we don't want extra money.. just pay what we deserve. I think I have more to say, but you get the gist here. Be smart!

We are sorry for the experience you had. Having said that, isn't it amazing that you worked “for more than three years” in a place you despised so much? What motivated you do to so? Given the acute demand for talent in gaming, you could have gotten a job anywhere else if you wished? Sorry to sound a bit direct, but your review seems very unfair and unjust for an employer with whom you spend 'more than three years'. Now, let me share our part of the story. We are very tolerant employers. We don't 'hire and fire' (another reason why we don't pay obnoxious salaries that are inflated and then get deflated as per market movements). We let employees get better while suffering their mistakes in the hope that we all do better one day. If that doesn't happen after three years, we request the employee to move on. Also, on some points: - Yes, what the CEO says is final! That's what a CEO is hired to do! - We pay Industry salaries that are sustainable. In the past 20 years of operations, we have survived and thrived for one reason and one reason alone - we understand what is realistic to pay (and charge). Many startups come into the market with hot funds, hire professionals just to build MVPs or get another round of funding. They pay weird salary hikes to achieve that. 98% shut down; they don't pay pending salary and leave the employee with an 'inflated salary slip' that no one in the market will pay ever again. That's mental trauma for an employee (to be told that he is not worth that much). We at Games2win don't do all this. I would end my requesting to you reflect on what made you stay for 3+ years and then when you are in a stoic frame of mind, actually list what we both could have done to make the relationship last longer. You say 'the attrition rate in incomparable' - Well it is!! We have scores of employees who have been around for 20-15-10-7-5 years! It is 'incomparable'. Sorry anyway, good luck and God bless.
