Pros

Pays well but that is about it.

Cons

Policies strictly enforced even if you have a disability. No exceptions (except if you are a favorite) to any policy. Unreasonable deadlines that nobody but upper management set. Strong push to use ai, so they expect more to be done in less time meaning code is pushed with little to no testing and reviews are a joke. Pushing all their Senior staff out after giving a raise and claiming performance issues for the first time. Pay isn't enough to deal with the culture here.

Pros

Free food. Gaming room Tech stack is good.

Cons

Dirty Politics. No one more care of people and they just fire. Indian management is useless and they don’t know for whom to take stand for. Only few people gets promotion and no matter how much hard you work for. Worst minded people and licking always

Pros

- Friendly coworkers make daily interactions enjoyable and collaborative - Modern tools and resources, with a solid tech stack that supports efficient development work. - Opportunities for technical growth ONLY if you're in the right circle

Cons

- Management in the India office is among the worst I've seen, high office politics dominate everything. - A tight-knit group of 7-8 people from the same previous company (including the senior dev manager) gets preferential treatment; good projects, awards, promotions, and perks all go to the elite group first, and scraps for everyone else. Find this not true?, then ask anyone and you will get the answer. (Provided the one you ask should not be from the elite group :D) - No work-life balance at all, recent policy forces 5 days in-office with exact 9 hours daily. - Performance standards are blatantly unequal (only in India office); the elite group faces lower or not sure which bar, while the rest grinds under stricter scrutiny. - Elite group members receive undue appreciation for staying awake late at night to handle minor application downtime - something entirely unnecessary, as ongoing processes can easily be transferred to colleagues in other time zones who are already available. - With recent re-org, its now again going in the same rabbit hole as it changed reporting managers of all, so now its a clean slate and prove everything to them again. -- Now, the leadership hear will likely respond to this review with an internal communication urging us to talk to us, but it changes nothing.
