Pros

1) completely remote with a nice office in Bengaluru 2) year end shut down

Cons

1) senior leadership in India are very incompetent and uninspiring and keep getting fired every year or so. 2)expect to work 9-11 hours a day, 3) the policy here is to pitch projects with unreasonable time lines and understaff it to maximise profits, they have been doing to for decades and swear by this strategy. 4) hikes are almost always delayed and is average. 5) HR are a bunch of robots Don’t join here unless you need a job urgently.

Pros

I had the opportunity to work with amazing individuals and be part of several outstanding teams.

Cons

Recognition can be heavily influenced by recent accomplishments, and long term contributions may not always receive the same level of visibility. Your experience can also vary significantly depending on leadership, as having a strong manager makes a tremendous difference, while ineffective management can make it easier to feel overlooked.
