Coverfox Reviews

Too many to list. No respect for tech people. They think they can get all work done by managers. Worst laptops for developers. The screen literally freezes as you type or open a new window or test your code. Very frustrating. Very bad and slow internet. I have seen some of my co-workers even bang their laptop out of frustration. The internet often keeps disconnecting like every hour or so. Very frustrating. Hierarchical discrimination. Based on your designation you will be discriminated by the HR, pantry staff, management. Only management enjoy special benefits. I was once told in the pantry that special biscuits and chocolate powder is reserved only for management and admin people and rest can eat Parle-G biscuits. Disgusting! No food in pantry. They will keep telling everyone that they have a lot of food in the pantry. Lies. There is only soft drink and that too from a local brand. In the morning if you reach even 5 mins late than the only breakfast they serve 365 days a year - bread-butter will also be over. They will treat you like school children. No startup benefits. But they expect you to work extra like a startup. If you come slightly late, then you will be told to take a half day irrespective of how late you have to stay everyday. Most of the smarter guys are leaving because of such policies. HR is the worst. They only boss around and don't care about employee satisfaction. Negative emotions everywhere. Everyone is frustrated with the management. Unless they rectify their mistakes this company is going down.

These are mostly applicable to the tech-division of Coverfox. (It's just my observations that I've seen for close to 1 year. All the points may or may not affect everyone) - HRs instead of looking after employee's queries, is always behind pleasing the senior management. - No work life balance. Most of the times you will be under pressure. Alternate Saturday's are working. They might ask you to come on other Saturdays as well. On the website they say that on Saturday's they do some cool stuff like working on their blog and stuff but it's all a lie. - Their priorities of tasks ahead change almost every week. Very bad planning by the managers and they try to pass on the blame to the leads or other dev. - Poor machines to work on. Very bad internet connection. Although managers are given macbooks for some reason. - They say there is always a lot of food around. But that's not true. There is hardly anything in the pantry most of the times. Coffee machine has milk powdered unhealthy coffee. They had replaced this by a natural milk dispensing machine but it was then removed because one or two senior people didn't like it. - Snacks are served at 7. Seriously I don't know who serves snacks so late. Probably they feel there will be less people at this hour and they can save on some money. Snacks are extremely unhealthy. They had started serving fruits in between but again since one or two senior people did not like it, they stopped it. - They even try to save on tissue papers in the washrooms by not replacing them once they get over. Pathetic! I don't know whether they are in such dire need of funds or it is just negligence.
