Pros

Flexible timing Fully remote Provident fund, OPD and IPD, Stocks Good culture. No leg pulling or toxicity. Mostly moderate workload, but gets really tough at times. Depends on the team and projects you get assigned to.

Cons

Extremely low increments. Do not expect to grow here financially even if you work here for 5 or 6 years. They have an extremely slow appraisal system. I have seen my friends working in very small companies and startups grow far more financially than i have grown here. Too many processes, less opportunity to grow skill wise. This company is great for someone looking for a retirement plan but not for somebody early in their career looking for growth. You do the same things on repeat

Pros

Strong people and culture. Genuinely good colleagues, a collaborative environment, and a place where talented people want to do good work. After many years here, the quality of the people is the thing I'd point to first. Real mission and real product. The work matters — building technology that has a tangible safety impact in the physical world. That gives the work a sense of purpose that's hard to find elsewhere.

Cons

Leadership and organizational clarity could be stronger. As the company has grown, clearer direction, more consistent decision-making, and steadier organizational structure would help people do their best work. Uncertainty. Periods of structural and strategic change can create a sense of instability that's tiring over time, even for people who are otherwise very committed to the company.
