Toxic workplace

Pros

Good services and remote-first work

Cons

The company appears fancy and organized on the outside and in the early days, but it is extremely messy and toxic. They fire you for no apparent reason in the middle of several projects on which you worked so hard. Layoffs are usual in this workplace, and you are rarely given a chance to say goodbye. Inside the company, there is a MAFIA; everyone tries to steal or interrupt projects from other departments in order to get credit. A good place to pass the time and make money, but don't expect long-term employment.

Pros

-Benefits are good. Very competitive -People are amazing, across all departments. I've developed good personal relationship -Salary are above average and the office is very cozy with game room, nice coffees among other perks -Good for short term employment

Cons

As many reviews mentioned before, job security was little or non-existence. Layoffs are frequent. Sometimes it was done by batches affecting few members in a specific departments, sometimes individually and it happened silently. I was one of the affected employees. No matter how long you have served in the company and your contributions, you are disposable. I have seen so many people being let go throughout my tenure here and the people who left are all good employees. If you manager does not like you, there's potential that you will be let go too To potential hire, please ask a lot of questions before you decided to accept the offer from this company

Great benefits, questionable circle

Pros

The benefits are really great to the point thats probably the only redeeming factor for anyone who is considering why they should work here.

Cons

Where should we start? There is constant hiring and firing, the founder believes this method of 20/40/40, where the 20 refers to top management, 40 refers to the middle people where they do not move much and the other 40 refers to the people constantly coming in and out. When I mean out (more than 50% of them are laid off) Layoffs are ALWAYS happening, and I do not mean this in a "Oh it only happened once or twice". I mean layoffs are silently happening within the company pretty much every quarter. There is no policies or standard procedures on how they handle this. You'd just show up to work and get asked "Company is restructuring", however knowing that the work you are doing is CRITICAL, considering that you were just pulled into a meeting to handle other region's work because the sole person there decided to leave this toxic company. Hiring is happening all year round with insane deadline. You would have expected if a project has been ongoing for 3 months or longer, you'd be kept in the loop or what not. No. You're only looped into the email or whatnot when things are going south and your only purpose is to get looped in to be blamed on by the top management. Their favourite question "How is this issue only rising now" while it being addressed to you when you were only introduced this project less than 24 hours ago. If you're one of their people, your wish is literally their command. You want sign-on bonus? Sure, here's the bonus you shall get. Mind you, this is during the period where, "Bonus" is a myth within the company. But yet, the MD was able to convince the other department that this is a MUST to give? Not sure how that works. Salary distribution is also wildly fluctuated. Someone who is a fresh grad is getting paid a manager level salary working on roles that is not related to what they studied but because the Director liked this person, boom. The offer just came out at that amount, while there are others who have been working for the same role but longer gets paid WAY lower. Confidentiality? Not sure what is that within the company as people from other departments know your salary and is able to come up to you and discuss how would they spend that money.
