Nothing to like at all
Dislikes
More work in very less salary
No work-life balance
Managers don’t take stand for their teams.
No job security at all
Over burdened employees
No specific job profile. Teachers are even expected to pitch for sales, do job pf their customer support executives
Big -time mental harassment
Process team is a failure. They are a bunch of hopeless people who do not know humanitarian grounds.
Teachers are expected to speak for 8 hours continuously by taking sessions.
And if anybody complains, they always mention tutor crunch which is never ending.
No clear communications
Salary deduction, no incentives, no internet allowance just because they are not able to pay their debts....Read More

Nothing just they gave assets which were also not so good at working
Dislikes
Everything work culture they promised some other ctc rold after year you will get 75k incentive but even after 2.5 years they didn't release it and whoever asked they fired them including me salary was not increased 1 ruppes in 2.5 years even incentives were closed so wr were recieving less salary Byju's is a hell for employees
THEY DO NOT GIVE THE TUTOR PREFERENCE & MOSTLY THEY ARE GIVING THE PRESSURE TO EACH & EVERY TEACHER TO TEACH THE UNCOMFORTABLE SUBJECTS LIKE THEY WILL GIVE THE PRESSURE TO BIOLOGY TUTORS TO TEACH THE CORE PHYSICS & THEY WILL NOT HELP IN THIS REGARDS.....I HOPE FOR EVERY SUBJECT THERE ARE SOME SPECIALISED TUTORS WHO CAN TEACH THE SUBJECT & MAKE THE CONCEPT CLEAR TO EVERY STUDENT BUT IF IT IS REGARDING THE UNCOMFORTABLE SUBJECT IT IS EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING...Read More

Chor, fraud, idiot company. Owners should be put behind bars for not giving my hard earned money. They fired 500 employees without notice or any info. This goes totally against labour laws. Bakwas company aur bakwas management.

Now the life in the byjus is not good , as we are not aware we will be shown the exit path. Also the appraisal and incentives are on hold from the past 6 months
Nothing as such is very good in the company . People at higher authority they don't even have any plan and strategy ,they are there to just take the credit of the work done by the employees at the lower end . It's a complete business based company nothing else .
Dislikes
No job security . Very toxic work culture and lots of politics inside the organisation .

It was just fine. No one could and should not think to work here for longer period because there is no growth and there are no opportunities. Also they claim that they are edtech but there is a lot of difference in what they say and what actually they do.
Dislikes

Very supportive colleagues and it has work from home opportunities. There are many activities as a group which improves the connection between the co-workers which is very nice. There are soft skills trainings and training for the job which is also good. The company provides decent compensation to their employees. They provide free mental health professional platform.
Dislikes
There is no job security at all and you will be under a lot of pressure most times. There are chances employees might lose their jobs with unattainable targets they set. There will be no work satisfaction. Mangers are not very approachable (depends upon the person). They will lay off employees before giving their variable pay. And on top of it you will get only your experience letter after 2-3 months. After the resigning part its very hard to get the clearance from every department even there is nothing you can do from your part. They deliberately makes it slow it seems....Read More
