Pros

I've had strong opportunities for growth here, and I'm consistently given real ownership over my work. My responsibilities have expanded steadily, and I genuinely feel trusted to drive things end to end

Cons

Alternate Saturdays are working days, which can make it harder to fully switch off on weekends. Work also tends to spill beyond regular hours during busy periods.

Pros

Honestly, nothing to be happy or proud of and not sure how investors and not looking into these reviews before taking their financial decisions.

Cons

1. Employees are often expected to work 12–14 hours a day. Working normal hours may make people feel their work is not appreciated. 2. The performance review process is not clear. Salary increases and promotions can be difficult to understand. 3. My manager did not have enough experience for the role and often depended on team leads for ideas and improvements instead of providing clear guidance. 4. Coming late to work, even once in a while, is taken very seriously and can affect performance ratings. 5. Work-life balance is poor. Getting leave approved can be difficult, and requests may be rejected unless followed up many times. 6. Employees are expected to learn and solve problems on their own, with no support or help from managers. 7. Employees may receive more responsibilities or unofficial title changes, but these changes are not always updated in official records or payslips quickly. 8. The HR team can be difficult to contact and may not respond quickly to employee concerns. 9. Giving honest feedback about management can sometimes result in negative treatment instead of positive action. 10. Management decisions are often unclear, and managers may rely on others for guidance rather than taking responsibility themselves. 11. Managers are often critical, and employees may be blamed for decisions related to work processes. 12. The work environment can be stressful and may affect employees' well-being over time. 13. Some teams are required to work from the office even when other teams can work remotely, creating inconsistency in work-from-home policies.
