Contlo Software Development Engineer (SDE) reviews

In terms of drawbacks, there are few if you're solely focused on work, but I'll mention some key ones. Work Pressure: The Engineering Manager's lack of proficiency in handling tasks, such as knowingly deleting Kafka credentials before removing them from the code, results in daily sitting beside you for pressuring to complete the work. Working Hours: Management expects employees to work roughly 20 hours a day, with the CEO even anticipating responses at 4 AM, though pager calls can be ignored as anyways Engineering Manager will sit beside the very next day. Management: There's a noticeable lack of concern for employees, with the CEO exemplifying micromanagement as the head of management. HR Department: HR appears to lack autonomy and direction, merely echoing the CEO's directives. They frequently alter holiday schedules last minute and seem ill-prepared, even during exit interviews she doesn't know what excuses to be made. Salary: The CEO and CTO often find ways to deduct salaries, whether through adjusting work-from-office days or approved holidays. However, employees from prestigious institutions like BITS or IITR receive substantial compensation. Work Culture: Racism and sexism are pervasive, with the CEO displaying preference for white employees. Seniors are unhelpful in work-related matters. A noteworthy "pro" within these drawbacks is that if you're inclined to be a CEO's puppet, you may find satisfaction in this environment, a sentiment shared by the CTO.

There is no stability at any level of the company. You could be terminated at any moment without any reason. You are hired for one project, but upon starting, you find yourself assigned to something entirely different. It's possible to be dismissed within the same month for failing to meet performance standards or due to a shift in business direction. Pseudo pressure is generated, and war rooms are convened every month. Subsequently, these projects or businesses are abandoned the next month. I'm puzzled as to how investors remain silent with this type of execution. The founders' business acumen is poor. They suffer from severe recency bias and lack patience.
