Pros

1 - This was one of the best startups of Pune. And now its no longer a startup but still has ideology of being startup. Salary is always on time. 2 - You will have freedom to work on anything literally you can say to any senior that you want to work on something new and next day you will be learning or working. Frontend, Backend, Deployment, Cloud and various new technologies you will touch everything. 3 - Though majority of people don't know about the company I am talking about Brainbees Solutions Pvt. Ltd. which is software development arm of Firstcry but the people who about company holds got respect against this company. 4 - Work culture is nice. HR are always helpful and smiling. Great job Manju👍

Cons

1. You will be tempted to the outside glitter of the IT companies because you will be ready to apply for any of the opening in MNCs. I am sure you'll succumb to it as many of the employees leave but then your learning stops there. I would suggest don't go for the money if you can survive for being paid less for couple of years. 2. Company is growing and having investment from SoftBank but the increments are really marginal which is the main reason employee leave as soon as they see better package even though knowing that the FirstCry has environment for growing

Pros

- Fast growing company - A big brand in E-Commerce - Experience of big and multiple projects

Cons

Too much to mention! List will not end, still writing highlights : 1. Non-professionalism and politics everywhere 2. Had to work on weekends frequently 3. Worst HR policies seen till the date 4. Was not lucky to get good management persons 5. Experienced almost a mental harassment due to work pressure and managers' "extreme" discipline 6. Scolding/shouting on the floor (in front of ~50 people) 7. Mgmt persons' interference in personal life/phone/WhatsApp 8. Fake Gossips and Mind Poisoning 9. Worked overnight (16-18 hours) for 1-2 weeks without any extra benefits (Providing dinner was definitely not a benefit/compensation) 10. It's impossible that your leaves would get approved 11. Work-Life balance = That's not a thing here 12. Creating fake work pressure and forcing employees to stay late in the office There's a plethora of negative memories of FirstCry. I am glad and lucky enough that I resigned as soon as I got another offer and left FirstCry.
