A nightmare working here - Engineer drivebuddyAI Employee Review

** Bad Company Culture ** - Fake promises. ESOPs were promised to the employees multiple times but were never released. - Salary was never on time. - Even planned earned leaves is frowned upon. Employees are forced to shift their plans citing high work volume. But the thing is there is always work and there is always something important going on. ** Anti-employee policies by the HR department ** - They sent out an email saying that anyone who resigns will have take their manager's approval. I can't even make this up. - The FnF is paid out AFTER 60 days as per company policy. The HR will ghost you after your last day. Good luck getting anything after that. - They (rather than your reporting manager) would scrutinise pending work for employees in their sync call. Would use vague words like "I heard from someone" and "many people are saying" and "that person mentioned it but not in a wrong way". You end up explaining your work to someone who doesn't know anything about your work. ** The CEO's and Top Management's bad behaviour ** - EXTREME LEVEL OF MICRO-MANAGEMENT! - You would hear something along the lines "You make mistakes because you are not passionate about your job". Good luck defending that. - Shouting at employees at team meeting and publicly threatening to fire them. - Stalking employees on Linkedin to figure out who is going to quit - Playing blame games and dodging responsibilities. - Jumping into discussions bypassing the leads and managers and change requirements after the work is half way through. Basically acting as a client and treating his own team as a 3rd party service team. Ofcourse production suffered.
