Pros

Cons
If you are earning, you can buy food, snacks and annual vacation to Goa or even Europe. So the pros OLX Gurgaon has are useless. This was a job I quit because of my manager. And people aspiring to join OLX should know my story. Last year, I approach my new boss telling him I am demotivated. Boss says, "No worries, we will take care of this." Within 20 days, I am told, "You should start looking out." And if this was not all, within 15 days, I am being put on PIP. I ask why? I have decent ratings. No complaint from anyone. "No, you need to be put on PIP", I am again told. I approach our top most HR, ask for help. HR says they were also surprised by my boss's decision to put me on PIP and assure me they will reach out to other people to assess my situation. And they also assure me, "I dont think your boss is vengeful". Soon, I get to know HR approached my boss. As expected my "non-vengeful" boss has put me on PIP, has given me a next to impossible task. He also tells me, "If someone approaches me for your feedback, I am going to say you are OK guy" This was along with his every now and then constant reminder, "It's not working, you should start looking out." I decided to quit even when I had no job offer. I will better sit at home unemployed then feel humiliated everyday. My boss, the CTO mentioned in one of the reviews, screw up my career big time. But why would my boss do this to me? Cuz, I had different opinions on some topic. I didn't feel any need to meet my boss everyday and tell him what I was doing. In my career of 15 years, never ever felt to do this. In fact, I could counter argue my earlier boss. Tell him he was wrong when he was wrong. In any professional environment this is appreciated. But this new boss of mine, took note of everything. He was setting me up for failure. And he succeeded. 3 senior staff members left the organisation just because of one person. Conclusion of all this * If this was just my boss's fault, I would have cursed my boss and moved on. HR has turned a blind eye to all this. Not just HR, CXO staff has turned a blind eye. They know all this and have decided to keep quiet. * The favouritism, ones who gather inputs and claim that as their own and talks to boss are clear winners now. Boss doesn't like you, you may be Denise Ritchie but you are not required in the team. * Vile office politics & micro management has made the work environment toxic. * Pathetic leadership, gets their job done by fear. You either tow your boss' line or get kicked the company. I considered myself as an average leader but compared to this leadership, I am awesome. * If you are an engineer who thinks that the solution boss gave you is not the right one, start looking out. * Ineffective India HR and the global HR can't help you. CTO/CPO report to central team. So essentially, HR in India is non existent for tech team. They are just processing your payroll if you are not being laid off.
