Cons
Don't get fooled by the recent 5* reviews all are orchestrated and well coordinated by the extremely talented HR team who has no other work apart from Firing folks and forcing fake Reviews. The company has one of the most unhealthy and toxic work environments I have experienced professionally. The culture is heavily fear-driven, where employees are constantly pressured, micromanaged, and expected to work beyond reasonable limits without any regard for personal well-being or work-life balance. Leadership behaviour is extremely disappointing and unprofessional. Senior leadership frequently insult, belittle, and publicly humiliate employees instead of providing constructive guidance or support. There is little respect for employees’ efforts, opinions, or mental health. Feedback is often delivered aggressively, creating a hostile atmosphere where employees feel undervalued and demotivated. The work environment itself is highly stressful and chaotic. Unrealistic expectations, poor planning, constant escalations, and lack of accountability from leadership make day-to-day work exhausting. Employees are often blamed for systemic issues while leadership avoids responsibility entirely. There is also a complete lack of employee recognition or career growth. Despite high workloads and continuous pressure, there are little to no salary hikes, rewards, or meaningful opportunities for advancement. Frequent layoffs and job insecurity further contribute to an environment of anxiety and instability. Communication from Top lacks transparency, empathy, and professionalism. Decisions are often abrupt, poorly communicated, and made without considering employee impact. Rather than fostering collaboration and innovation, the organization promotes politics, blame culture, and excessive pressure. Overall, this is an extremely stressful, unsupportive, and mentally draining workplace with poor leadership, low morale, and a deeply negative work culture that makes long-term sustainability very difficult for employees.
