Pros
A few folks in top management, especially in the finance department and tech departments are respectable and truly professional. A couple of super skilled seniors (not the founder for sure, but others in the top rungs) really know their deal. I'd say a good place for people seeking to learn how a start-up is financed and allocated resources. Respect for where the organization has reached today, regardless of its myriad flaws. Stay away from middle management and HR, and talk to the super seniors (not the founder) if in need of direction. The nature of the work has potential if properly executed. Join if you want some money but are okay with sacrificing the use of your grey cells. The job is worth it only if remote/hybrid owing to the substandard work culture. Gives a decent industry insight.
Cons
Greenwashing all the way. Way too much office politics. Managers discuss people's private lives in the open. No ethics. Substandard service economy type of a job. As in many Indian corporates, they have a white person bias, so if you as an Indian employee offer a good suggestion, folks may ignore it. But they'll take the same suggestion from a white client. So a mix of colonial hangover, racism and petty egos run wild here. The HR is quite incompetent, be careful of them. The HR used to be good, in a past life. People do not want to learn, even from the best. Everybody thinks they know what is correct. Showing a willingness to explore/learn is seen as a weakness. Weird, one-of-a-kind toxic work culture.
