⚠️ Major Concern:
The separation agreement explicitly includes a clause requiring employees to provide positive public reviews (e.g., on Glassdoor or AmbitionBox) in order to receive relieving/experience letters or proper background verification support
This raises serious concerns about:
Authenticity of reviews on these platforms
Fairness of exit processes
Professional ethics and employee rights
Other cons:
Work-life balance is consistently poor, with long working hours and frequent expectations to extend beyond standard schedules
Heavy dependence on interns with limited presence of experienced engineers, leading to weak technical mentorship and guidance
Rapid assignment of “lead” or “product owner” roles to relatively inexperienced employees, affecting decision quality
Decision-making is highly centralized; differing technical opinions are often not encouraged
Extensive use of employee monitoring tools (e.g., activity tracking software) creates a high-pressure environment and lack of trust
Appraisal and salary revision processes lack transparency and may be delayed despite eligibility
Financial lock-in policies (bonds) after conversion to full-time roles impose significant penalties for early exit
