Pros

The teammates are great but that's pretty much it now. It used to be a great company to work for with healthy work-life balance and good compensation but those days are gone now after the CEO sold more than 50% of the company and filled his pockets.

Cons

The benefits, cultures and values mentioned on the website are so outdated now. Unlimited Holiday: Its to mock you and a nice trick by the HR team. All managers are internally advised to keep track of holiday count for their DRs and try to discourage if the count goes beyond 20 leaves. So why say its unlimited in the contracts when its not. Sinking ship: More than half of the team was sitting idle last year due to lack of projects and then there were three rounds of lay-offs. Rather than actively focussing on getting new projects, the leadership team decided to let go off engineers even those who were there with the company for more than 5 years No budget for L&D or attending conferences Everyone except the top leadership and managers is a talented bunch but the leadership lacks skills and direction required to drive the company

Pros

There are incentives for high performers and for those expected to do nothing except work nonstop, often at the expense of any personal life. Those who do not have families or outside responsibilities and spend nearly all their time working may see some reward, though it still does not match the way employees are treated.

Cons

•Employees are forced to follow management demands with no real choice, including extended hours past office time •Refusing overtime or extra work leads to threats of termination or hostile treatment from supervisors •Work environment is driven by intimidation and fear rather than respect or proper leadership •Employees are treated as disposable and already operate under constant pressure and disregard •Verbal hostility, shouting, and disrespectful behavior are common and sometimes occur without clear reason •Management exploits job dependency and fear of termination to push excessive workloads •The overall environment feels dehumanizing, with employees treated as tools rather than people •Pay is issued regularly but is far too low for the level of stress, pressure, and mistreatment endured
