Pros

Free cab. Free food (Just for namesake, they provide food but it is of such low quality )

Cons

- HR POLICY GETS CHANGED WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE. If at all the US team is reading this, please look into this matter. - No proper infrastructure. - No laptops. -No Work from home.(Except for managers, leads and pregnant women). - The IT department of the company has got company provided iphones !!!! (I wonder why do they even need that). They also get onsite opportunities. - There is no proper retention policy or efforts made to retain the employees who have resigned. - No growth at all. If at all you are in good terms with your managers then you grow else you are gone. - The managers based out of bangalore are of no use. They are meant only to approve timesheets, leaves.

Pros

I like working here, I find the work life balance with this role to be ideal, and remote opportunities are regularly available at the company ever since the pandemic. Unlimited PTO and I don't have feel guilty to use it, team structure really helps when people are out of the office. Receive good salary for my part of the country, with yearly raises and bonus based on merit.

Cons

I don't have many cons, I would say it would depend on your manager, as is the case with most positions in this world. I've had amazing managers with my time here and some mediocre managers, but overall the job has been good enough to weather the storm of a bad boss.

Pros

Responsible Time (which is truly encouraged to be used and is one of the only things keeping people above water at the moment); great coworkers

Cons

Company is growing too big, too fast and employees simply cannot keep up and are burning out. Too many changes at once and employees feel senior leadership does not notice or they simply don’t care. Associates who have been with Empower since the beginning are saying this is not the same Empower they once loved working for.
