Pros

-Lots of things to learn, latest tech stack. -Technically this is a good company. -Senior programmers are very smart. -Most of the seniors are helpful except a few new senior members with attitude as if they are god

Cons

- salaries are like a call center. - even if they give you high joining package, increment will destroy your market value. - No sports. - some senior employees have no manners how to talk to a junior person, they will treat you like a slave. - earlier management was good, but it just got worse. - tt room has timings, noone can play tt in other than specified time, but higher management people sit for meetings in play timings like a boss, they don't care about timings. - even their pantry tv has very limited channels, they must be saving millions here. - new weird IT policies, IT has no idea how to implement things(same like demonization) - joke of the day. Their hr works remotely, no idea how. - if you are a developer, QA will rarely find a proper bug, you will have to do testing yourself, they will list down hundreds, but they rarely qualify as bugs, never trust QA here, they pretend to work. - No cab service, even cheap call centers provide free pick up-drop. - a bunch of uncultured people in this company have zero manners in terms of using washrooms, other services and parking especially. I got lot of scratches on my bike/car because of this. - No office tshirts/sweatshirts/bottle/mug or any goodies. - Almost every company on this planet provides either free or subsidized breakfast/lunch. They are so cheap, they count your coffee consumption in a day, let's not go to free food.

Pros

Working at Contentserv means that you will be working with some of the most dedicated people in the field of product information management and master data management. The talent and experience of the team at Contentserv forced me to become much better and changed the way I approach tasks large and small. Other benefits include: - Total autonomy - Belief in doing what's "right" for yourself, for the company, for the customer - Super cool software - Opportunities to work with some of the coolest brands out there If you are experienced and entrepreneurial then Contentserv gives you the tools to prove to yourself that you have what it takes to really shine in your field.

Cons

This list is much shorter, but I would mention: - Occasional "all hands" calls set at times that are crippling if you live in the US (3-5 am depending on time zone) - US benefits could be a lot better - Lack of clear internal communications (you almost never know when people join or leave, which causes people to speculate/gossip) and a defined RACI chart so you know who to ask for what I would add however that changes are coming and that despite these factors I have not lowered my overall score of Contentserv due to what I view as the overwhelming positives above.
