Pros

Infrastructure is good. Cab facilities You will be treated very good if you are a malayali or tamilian as the company staff comprises full of these people as the first branch in india was at chennai. They have not hired any new people instead shifting staff from chennai to Bangalore . Trust me you are guaranteed a job if you are one of those as mentioned .

Cons

There was no space to breathe. You should take breaks only during scheduled timings. They are not accepting any feedbacks. The manager i worked under doesn't even know how to speak. She used terrible language without allowing me to explain.

Groupon Response

Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback with us. The expansion of our teams from Chennai to Bangalore is definitely exciting for us, as it’s allowing us to build a stronger shared service centre. And we believe we provide a great work environment for our employees, which includes work from home days, excellent facilities, competitive compensation, and ample resources for teammates to address any issues. Work days in customer service are indeed structured and metrics-driven, which is fairly standard for this type of work regardless of the organization. Thanks again for your review.

Groupon Response

Thanks for sharing your feedback with us. We’re glad to read that you felt compensation and benefits were good. However, we’re sorry to read that you didn’t find the work to be challenging. As a global company revolutionizing local commerce, we have a lot of interesting problems to solve but it’s certainly not a culture that suits everyone. Thanks again for your review.
