Pros
- editorial team is a good place to be
Cons
- Company runs by favouritism and biasness like they are its lifelines. It’s in their blood. The CEO has 8-10 favourite people with whom she has great personal equations and sadly the same is carried to work, which makes this place highly unfair to be a part of. If you are someone with a fresh set of ideas, the chances are you would not be heard except in editorial department - Possibly the worst sales managers that you could work with. Bringing personal biasness to work and making it difficult to work for everyone who works with them - Unprofessional environment where for most part of the day people are shouting and celebrating trivial, almost nonsensical things - No work life balance. If you are finishing your nine hours and leaving on time, it is considered as half day and people stare at you for leaving on time despite voluntarily being available round the clock including weekends - Your seniors most probably at any given point of time will have no idea what you are upto and there is no leadership, no learning. Coming here is a career suicide if you are really ambitious professionally and want to grow - The HODs/teamleads here have no added experience that gives them that authority and there is hardly anything that you’d look up to in them to grow as an individual hence the attrition rate is extremely high - Designations and departments are a joke here. Overnight, without consulting you, your designation and department can be changed and you will be asked to be a ‘floater’ before the company realises your potential and decides where to place you with no preference of your own. They toss people like salad and play with their career - Refrain from spending any money of your own here thinking you will be reimbursed later, you won’t be - Despite being a women-led company, as the ‘biggest community of women in India’, there is a certain regressive, classist and elitist vibe in the company that might just make you doubt yourself and your capabilities. - My suggestion to anyone joining here - please do a thorough research of the department you are joining. The only department here worth joining is editorial who is led by a proper professional and who knows what she is doing. Editorial has great editors, writers and it will be fun to work with them. Avoid Commercial Team unless absolutely sure.
