Pros

Lots to do, some of the areas are good steps.

Cons

Founders have no clue how to build a fin business, lack of basic knowledge. Further it's IIT kanpur crowd and they hire more folks from their school whether these guys are good or not(mostly not). The hours are very long, founders come late and office closes around midnight. We don't have any respite for this IIT mafia culture.

Ownership & Autonomy: Engineers are trusted with end-to-end ownership of features. You get to drive design, architecture, and deployment with minimal red tape. Fast-paced & Impactful: The company operates at startup speed. If you’re proactive, your work can directly impact millions of small business owners across India. Strong Tech Culture: Clean code, scalable architecture, and modern stack (Go, Node.js, GCP, etc.). Solid engineering team that encourages best practices. Leadership Accessibility: Founders and senior leaders are approachable, open to feedback, and genuinely care about product and team growth. Learning Opportunities: Exposure to product thinking, real-world scalability challenges, and cross-functional collaboration with product/design/data.

Cons

None that stand out — it’s a fast-paced startup, so the environment is dynamic, but that’s part of the learning and growth.
