Avoid Unless You Love Puppet Managers and Boot-Lickers

Pros

Nothing - Good techies are stuck due to job market here

Cons

Puppet leadership — Indian managers have zero decision-making power; they just follow orders from elsewhere. Boot-licker culture — Senior/principal engineers survive by pleasing management, not by delivering value. False promises — Told during hiring you’ll have 2–4 WFH days; after joining, forced into office 8 hours daily. Excessive work hours — Expected to work another 5–6 hours at night for US teams. No appreciation — On-time delivery ignored; reviews always find a “negative” to block bonuses/VCP. Innovation is a façade — Buzzwords with no actual innovative work happening. Toxic bureaucracy — Even basic leave approvals are a fight. Arrogant, outdated mindset — Operates like a service company pretending to be product-based.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. This isn’t the experience we want for anyone at OpenGov, nor is it what we typically hear from our teams, and we take it seriously. We’re investing more than ever in developing our managers and promoting from within, and we remain committed to fostering a culture of empathy, transparency, and growth.
