PinkBlue.in Response
8yHonestly speaking – I’m struggling how to go about responding to this review. Unsure whether I should be defensive and justify few of the above mentioned ‘cons’ or should I link it to mutual mismatch of expectations? Amidst the dilemma, the only thing coming out clearly is that in some ways you’re hurt and as the first employee of PinkBlue, one of the Co-founders and more importantly your erstwhile teammate – I apologize to you. Mind you – this apology is not for the things you’ve written about PinkBlue – the ‘low salaries’, the ‘no work life balance’, the ‘crazily extended work hours’, the ‘6 working days week’, the ‘no extra salary’. This apology is because I feel that I personally failed to reach out to you, hear you out and provide you the other perspective. I’d still refrain from giving a point by point rebuttal to your allegations and instead request you to reach out to me. Let’s talk over a cup of CHAI :)
On behalf of PinkBlue what I’d want to say is – We are a growth centric organization and we are on a mission to create something that’s not only immensely beneficial for the Healthcare industry, but is equally exciting & challenging. From what we have learnt, we know that this journey is going to be arduous & demanding. It’ll ask us to push our limits and walk that extra mile and it’ll demand us to learn new things and execute with perfection. Although there have been sincere attempts made by the ‘Employee Success Manager’ – who joined us a few months back – to notch up the much needed ‘fun at work’ quotient; the sheer satisfaction of solving a super-complex real-life problem is still the thing that keeps most of us going around here.
On that note – I thank you for your contribution to making us who we are today and wish you all the best for your journey ahead.
