Pros

1. Since the end of last year, their leave policy became really good. Apart from 1 birthday leave and anniversary leave each, they had separate regular leave, bereavement leave, maternity leave, etc. options. 2. Permanent WFH was also great for those not living close to the Bangalore office. 3. Salary gets credited on the last working day of each month without fail

Cons

Practically everything else, some of which include: 1. Incapable managers get promoted multiple times a year due to nepotism and sweet-talking. 2. Incredibly high workload for a single person. During my time there, I got to work with someone who I found out was single-handedly managing work that needed at least 6-7 more people. 3. No attention to the quality of content. More attention to quantity than quality. 4. Incredibly high turnover rate. More than 80% of the people I was working with last year have left. 5. Everything revolves around favouritism. Competence or capability is ignored - if the manager likes you, then you are more likely to get promoted, no matter how many or the scale of escalation you got. 6. No scope of professional growth 7. No fixed working hours. So, work can go on from 9.30 in the morning to 9.30 at the night or possibly even later for some teams. 8. They also hired a differently abled person for the sake of inclusion and diversity, but no one was willing to accommodate their needs and ultimately they left after only 10 days. There is a lot more that is wrong but will just conclude my thoughts with these 8 points.
