Apollo 247 Product Manager Reviews

Likes

At Apollo 247 employees get lots of responsibilities and ownership. They often work with top bosses on complex problems, which makes you feel trusted. You start by working on smaller tasks and if you do well, your responsibility areas increase. There is a steep learning curve. For me, I was amazed to work on complicated hyperlocal delivery systems when I was new. I also know that seniors have worked along with some of our colleagues on their college applications and actually spent many hours helping them perfect the application and essays. Really haven't heard this from any of my friends that seniors go out of way to help....Read More

Dislikes

Collaborating with other companies is tough. So many times it feels that they genuinely wants projects to fail. Layoffs were very painful. It was not easy to sit with friends and colleagues when they were crying. Last, why do we have HR? We dont get any reply from them at all.

Dislikes

E-Commerce in highly regulated industry with no growth prospects Working on presentations 24x7, new ideas are rejected blindly. Toxic Management esp in Gurgaon and Hyderabad. You have to be willing to be exploited 12hrs/day including most weekends. Too many either leaving or fired by management, new jobs are for getting scapegoats for bad decisions previously made.

Good team, great learning, ownership of end to end delivery of projects. No office politics. Seems like a stable company.

Dislikes

Slowly transitioning to work from office. Higher management is too chill, bad for growth of the company. Since focus is on profitability, budget is low for appraisal/salary hike. Yearly promotion/appraisal cycle. Slow growth.

Dislikes

1. Expectations to work like a robot with consistent improvements, if you aren’t able to deliver 1 day then you will be demotivated by your manager by grilling you with lots of Why, What questions and raise questions about time management 2. Manager asks to find gaps and create stories and doesn’t agree on the story which gets created. No clarity of work 3. Every module dev team work on their own pace and ignore defects raised by QA 4. There is no dedicated staging env needed to run scripts 5. Deployments happen very frequently on staging and on PROD as well 6. PROD deployment happens on Tuesday and Thursday officially, but the deployment happens everyday unofficially 7. Product team are the worst, they keep changing the UI very often and keep adding new useless features Instead of stabilising the existing features 8. Daily stand up meeting which is only 30 mins goes beyond 1-1.5 hrs on an average, where grilling with questions would be the main agenda..which makes you feel demotivated and have a lot of self doubt...Read More

Everything. There is no work life balance at all. They would ask you to work extremely hard without even paying you for the overtime.
