One of the worst experiences, work environment and culture
Pros
They did not lay off anyone due to covid.
Cons
I'm writing this lengthy review because before I joined, I looked at glassdoor and everyone was praising this company to the gods. Hence I made a decision to join this company. But later I realised the reviews were written under pressure by the management hence hold no credibility. To begin with my joining day, I was given a specific time to come to office and the person responsible for my induction(and I use the word 'induction' very loosely) did not show up until an hour later. The rest of the process wasnt planned at all. I had to go and ask what next after every small little thing. It was very chaotic and frustrating. The said person isnt qualified enough for the job given as proven by many incidents later. Poorly handled hirings, no people skills(which are basic for the job), poor performance in advocating for the better of the employees. If you are expecting you'd get any work regarding data science or data engineering(which would be promised during the interview process), youll be let down quite a bit. The projects lack maturity in terms of usecases and proposed solutions, inturn the work quality goes below subpar level. You'll be asked to work as full stack developer/UI developer/anything your JD does not specify and if you refused since clearly thats not the focus of your career, you'll be deemed as 'not an engineer'/'not willing/capable to keep up' altogether! The management here is very insecure. And they make sure that you are watched like a hawk. The WFH situation made it even worse so much so that even when it wasnt necessary people were made to work on weekends without any comp offs. In terms of effective project management, there arent any capable project managers or technical leads left in this organization, so there isnt any! Lastly what I have observed is that flattery and yesmanship will get you in goodbooks of the higher management, which translates to better money and better position in the organization. Others who dont participate in these things would be deemed as people not loyal to the organization.
