Pros

Honestly there's just a few like 2-3 (I had to really care about the fact, that sadly I used to work here). 1. you get paid to have a ola or rapido bike and order from swiggy and zomato at 12 and eat at 1. 2. you can get salt and peeper look quite easily 3. you'll boost economy by helping doctors, brokers and other vendors

Cons

Where do I even begin? For me, this was a place full of red flags from the start. The culture felt poor, the environment often toxic, and favoritism seemed very visible. At times, it felt like growth and recognition depended less on merit and more on region, personal networks, or proximity to certain managers. There were situations where output and narratives appeared shaped to suit expectations rather than reflect reality, which was frustrating to watch. Leadership, in my view, often came across as insecure and short-sighted, with a very myopic way of handling people and business decisions. Instead of building capability, the system sometimes made employees feel like low-grade labour rather than professionals. The work environment could be mentally exhausting. Long and unpredictable hours, pressure-filled timelines, and a constant sense of urgency made it difficult to maintain balance. Many junior employees carried the heavier load, while support or guidance from senior people was not always available when needed. At times it felt like once someone reached Consultant level or above, some stopped contributing meaningfully while execution pressure remained on the lower levels. There was also a noticeable gap in fairness around hiring and compensation. In some cases, home-grown employees with strong internal experience appeared underpaid, while external hires entered at much higher packages for similar roles(salary ratio becomes almost 3:5+). That naturally affects morale. Opportunities to learn advanced skills also felt limited after a point, especially if you were looking for real depth in MMM or broader analytics capability. On a personal level, the stress was not small. Continuous pressure, unhealthy schedules, and constant follow-ups can affect health and relationships outside work. When work starts following you into sleep, something is wrong with the system. Poor work culture Toxic / stressful environment Favoritism and perceived regional bias Merit not always rewarded fairly Long and unpredictable working hours Uneven workload distribution Limited advanced learning opportunities Compensation imbalance between internal vs external hires High pressure affecting health and personal life Weak people management in some areas

Pros

- Manager was very flexible and supportive, especially with interns who needed time to familiarize themselves with the company and its tech stack - Great WLB - Everyone on my team was very helpful and always available to help if need be

Cons

- Sometimes my manager would be busy with other work and I'd have no work/be stuck with a problem I couldn't solve myself, but this wasn't a big deal at all.
