Pros

The company offers a flexible schedule which means you can come in a little later and leave earlier if needed. There is complimentary food and catered Friday lunches provided by the company. Artists and bands would stop by the office periodically to perform for the staff.

Cons

There is poor communication between departments, and between senior executives and with the staff. It also became clear the leadership had very little understanding of brand development and management, opting for ad-hoc tactics rather than a fully fleshed out strategy based in an established brand mission and objectives. Because of this, there were unrealistic expectations for goals and deliverables and a lack of clear direction on what we were trying to achieve. Every one seemed to be playing their own version of "whack-a-mole" when it came to resolving issues. Resources were not readily available for some departments to grow and thrive, while others were given the green light regularly. Also, compensation is below market rate across the board.

Pros

Improvement :- In personality development Communication skills Working here makes you confident enough for talking to strangers Smalls parties and events

Cons

Working here will:- *Destroy your personal life *Harsh who is MD is highly unprofessional in office(uses abusive language) *Don't believe what they tell you in interview always ask them to mention in offer letter. *I was told that 10k will be given by groove sharks and rest will be performance oriented but it was not mentioned in the offer letter and when I opposed this with our MD "HARSH". He told me it's a start up so I need to trust him. I was fooled in the name of a start up. {These people claim that they raise funds on behalf of plan India but the fact is this Plan India which is a NGO is not even allowed to raise funds} This company groove sharks has a parent company called 'Aura Marketing' and this Aura marketing itself do these kind of fraudulent activities. You all can search for AURA MARKETING also.
