Pros

* Impact on ground. The folks you impact are common people of India and not some elitist on other part of world. * Money - to-start-with

Cons

* The entire data team has one decision maker and every definition of right/wrong revolves around the opinion/prior/mood of one person. * The other business functions including but not limited to PM-leads, DS-leads are crippled on authorisation and decision making. * They had some good folks who tried empowering the team (poached from aa company w/ great culture) and dare to speak/take one for the team, have now given up and are leaving the organisation. * Primarily, being an OPS driven organisation, the focus is on making `V0` or hustle, rather than impact. * Lacks planning severely, and as a consequence, the people w/ ownership toil hard, for others, it's another day passed. * For a DS role, there is no one to look upto and collaboration is seen as overallocation. * Even if you manage to create a sensible product, the adoption will be temporary. * Spends a lot of time b/w managers to create OKR's, nobody cares about the analysis that will be involved * SQL developers are titled Data Analysts, Data Analysts are titled Data Scientist, and a Senior Data Scientist is responsible for everything that goes wrong w/ the system * One will loose skill during the time spent w/ Rapido.
