Cons
One thing we always heard — especially from senior leaders visiting from the Texas HQ — was how proud the company was that it never laid anyone off, not even during the 2008 recession. That gave us confidence. Sadly, that promise meant nothing in the end. In Jan 2025, around 700 employees across global offices were let go without warning — many of us blindsided after years of loyalty. What makes it worse is the hiring spree that happened just a couple of years ago during COVID. In Bangalore alone, headcount went from around 300 to 900. That kind of growth without foresight shows a serious lack of planning. Leadership in India often feels powerless — unable to stand up for the team here or push back on unreasonable expectations from the US. We're expected to deliver everything, but rarely given the compensation, recognition, or support that reflects that. The past year has been chaotic: senior leaders being abruptly let go, trust eroded by whispers of internal mismanagement, and a growing sense that no one’s really steering the ship. It’s been a hard fall from what once felt like a dependable place to grow a career.
