Pros

Technology and expertise in building best in class, accelerated development and delivery, highly innovative and exploring minds to work with.

Cons

Obstacles to everything in pros from the management. Nobody understands engineers here. Treated like replaceable peripheral devices, they plug and play with them and the stuff they build. Be it every other HR policy, or every other engineering process or every other product call: it's a take-the-order attitude, and that's scaling faster than the hardware infrastructure here.

Thanks for being a valued member of our team for over a year. We certainly believe that building a good product cannot be done at the expense of stifling new thoughts and ideas from engineers. As a matter of fact, we really appreciate new ideas coming from engineers especially when somebody takes the initiative to build it into our product. However, since our product is so critical to our customers and their users, we have to take into account their needs and feedback; which then have to be prioritised. We have to ensure that ideas that are implemented are the ones that matter to our customers and us and are creating a significant impact. We value contributions of every single individual in the organisation based on their drive and ability to make a significant impact.

Cross-border resource planning and hiring pipelines can occasionally create unexpected delays during peak quarterly cycles.

Pros

None that I can think of. Maybe a couple decent/sticky products

Cons

Onboarding is 99% product and training reps to be Sales Engineers. Almost not focus on sales strategy. US sales team is treated like temp sub-contractors. No senior leadership or true support for US team. No sense of direction. Horrible communication. Everything that helps make a sales org go is run out of India. A customer could be begging to buy software and it can takes to get them a quote.
