Pros
Joining 1GEN as an AI Intern was far more than a technical placement; it was an immersion into a culture of radical transparency, compassion, and true empowerment. Coming from a background of rigid, traditional office structures, the environment fostered by Paul Singh Oberoi was a revelation—a space where every voice is not only heard but actively encouraged to innovate.
The "1GEN vision" goes beyond a tech stack; it’s about collective brilliance and collaboration. I am deeply grateful to Paul Singh Oberoi, Rajbir Kaur, Twinkle Bauddh (our team manager), and Jessica Saldana for their mentorship and for giving me the agency to find my own professional voice.
Cons
The pace is fast and the standards for "1GEN quality" are very high. If you prefer a slow environment with repetitive tasks, this might be a challenge—but for those who want to grow, this "con" is actually a pro.
