      Pros

      Are there any? Yes One... there a brewery at ground floor which can be a stress re-leaver, inside organization... i CANNOT think of ANYTHING... NOTHING.... which can be considered as a Pros for SD2 Labs

      Cons

      So I joined this organization with complete enthusiasm, and looking at all the credentials they present on their website.... *Amazon partners* *Global Presence* *AWS Experts* ....... like REALLLYYYY???? there a bunch of "goons" running this organization, close to 60 people are in India and the whole company is run by a person who sees no difference between a stray dog or rag picker or a thief or a Software Developer or a Manager or pantry boy... he treats everyone equally .. like absolutely ZILCH... you go to anyone's system in the organization and they are looking for a job... EVERY SINGLE PERSON... People have such fear of getting a pink slip that they slog themselves over night for the stupid commitments that CEO does to its "hardly any clients", and make PMs and developers work over nights and then throw them out of organization for siilliest of their mistakes... As per SD2, you are only allowed to commit a mistake once, Second mistake you are outta company.... They will tell employees - neither your work is good nor your face, get out... such big Racists they are... Indian employees are just labor for them..... CEO and all top mgmt people are soo high on ego that they cant look down and see what their employees are going through... Salaries get credited generally 10-15 days late, (Reason is that owner buys an accommodation abroad, hence company has no money).. I haven't met even a single happy person here... Highest vintage period here would be 1 year for someone who has some senses in place... For 60 people there is 1 washroom and 1 other to be used only by senior people. They pay higher than industry standards so that you are unable to get a job/package outside... Work life balance is always on a toss here. Company has no real business proposition...and its all a bubble... all these good reviews here are being made to be written by company HRs and employees forcefully.... Please think a thousand times before joining this organization, dont go on the infrastructure they have think think think and even after that DON'T join .....

      Pros

      - Awesome team - Freedom of working remotely - Cutting edge platform I have been at the company for less than a year but already in that time I have learned a ton and been given a lot of opportunities to challenge myself. The scope of my responsibilities has expanded and I have been afforded a number of opportunities to pursue my interests. It is a really exciting time to be here as we are in the midst of building out our platform and no day is the same.

      Cons

      - Work/life balance can be an issue at times. But you know that it is because we are under deadline, so it is understandable - The decision making/approval process can be burdensome

      Pros

      Great people who get sucked in, then realize the "reality" and quickly jump. Ex employees are a great network to have because they have passed an intelligence test by leaving!

      Cons

      Megalomaniac CEO that is essentially playing house. I have seen this before.. a CEO that promises funding, growth, opportunity. In reality he is a control freak who will never let anyone grow or achieve independently because it threatens his authority and control. I've seen this before... independent thinking triggers discussions about staying in line. Senior employees with amazing skills are used like assistants. Not to mention the rudeness expressed toward the Indian development team. Being called useless. The CEO even told one female employee that she should be taken out back and shot in the head... I am not kidding!
