Pros

The interviewer had good knowledge and covered all the aspects for frontend/backend development.

Cons

Do not expect interview process to be fair- 1. Interviewer took offend when his English was corrected (since he was not proficient in it), and extended the interview with more questions in hope that wrong answer will be given and he can have a reason to reject. But nonetheless, all the questions asked were answered correctly and still the application stood rejected. 2. 30 mins call extended to 65-70 mins just to get rejected. Interviewers have big ego and you will get rejected if you correct them. 3. If an interviewer thinks a candidate is not a good fit, they can and do wrap up within 30 minutes, extending the session further just tells that interviewer is acting out of ego. So, do not expect to pass the interview just because you have good skills. and ask the session to be recorded so interviewing staff is afraid of their managers watching it.

Pros

Friendly and sopportive working environment. Hybrid working style.

Cons

Working hours are not flexible. Employees who joined less than 12 months ago are not eligible for an increment. The company's increment cycle starts every January, but I was not eligible because I joined in June of the previous year.

Pros

Nothing noteworthy to highlight at this time.

Cons

Strong office politics dominate the work environment; some individuals BS and PP focus more on office politics than actual delivery work. Lack of accountability—there is no proper review or validation of work done (or not done). Employees are harassed during 1‑on‑1 meetings, including disrespectful communication and verbal bashing. Targets are singled out, pressured, and treated unfairly without objective reasons. Employees are sometimes placed on PIPs without clear justification, which feels more like retaliation than performance management. There is no safe forum or leadership support where employees can voice concerns or be heard. HR and senior management do not take timely or effective action on reported issues. Creates a toxic, fear-driven environment where employees feel targeted, unsupported, and forced to leave. Excessive and unnecessary meetings consume the entire day without clear outcomes. Managers spend more time in meeting rooms than supporting or guiding their teams. Micromanagement and constant pressure from both negatively impact mental health and morale. If you don not hear them then PP will target you and spread bad words about you.
