You'll get all the pressures and workload of a Sr. Engineer, except the salary - SDE1 OYO Employee Review

Pros

- Global reach, you MIGHT get to travel for a week or two - "Great place to work", if you can brown-nose your way to the jack-shit CTO

Cons

- Anil Goel is a huge pain, and a hypocrite. He'll tell you that he doesn't want to build a culture of bureaucracy, but behaves the exact opposite. - If you work under Anil's two favorite "Sr. Leaders", you'll be fine. Else you can do anything but you'll not be recognized - You'll be told that Salary isn't important, work is. And then you'll be given so much work that you spend 12 hours a day in office, and work on the weekends as well.

Pros

Plenty of opportunities to work on real-world machine learning problems, exposure to large-scale data, supportive colleagues, fast-paced culture that encourages growth and continuous learning.

Cons

Work-life balance can be challenging at times due to tight deadlines, rapid changes in priorities, and the need to adapt quickly in a high-pressure startup-like environment.
