Dislikes

1. Zero Job security. - They asked 4 people to leave serving notice period and told other employees that they kept those employees on bench for 6 months.( 4 Employee fired in 2023) 2. Low work life balance - Hubstaff keeps bugging you to complete 8 hrs and with activity greater than 20/25%. No activities no benefits. The software Hubstaff takes screenshots, captures keyboard strokes, monitor mouse moves, applications you use and links you visit. Please check Hubstaff over internet. 3. They track every activity of your laptop by hubstaff which takes 3 screenshots in every 10 mins. They said that it's a proof if any client ask whether your employee is working or not. 4. Apart from Salary there is no benefit, they have the employee of month award which they give to each employee covering them every month. The award benefit is reduced to 5k as their last meeting. 5. Mr Jon the so called CEO wakes up on 7th of every month(US timezone) and process the salary of employees and it's becomes 8th early morning in India. 6. Mr Jon is such impatient, rude, immature, unprofessional and incompetent person who thinks the employees are puppets and talks nonsense. He just wanted to listen estimates and yelled at even senior employees. His treatment to employees is like workers. 7. He never read important updates from the respective project groups and jumps in between and fights with employees like a child. 8. When it comes to appraisal they make you feel like there is a bad market conditions and we are still employing you so it is better to hold a job than to rush for salary hike and this is plain emotional blackmailing. 9. We heard of their new director who joined recently whose job is to be a mediator between Mr. Jon and employees but he always shakes his neck whenever Mr Jon says something. He should take part actively in conversation and handle matters on both side, but he tries to impress Mr. Jon. 10. They want new employees to join immediately but their notice period is of 2 months. 11. They always invite former employees for lunch or dinner, instead of interacting with current employees they spend whole time talking to former employees. Inviting former employees is not an issue but you should first give priority to current employees listening to their problems, thoughts, improvements. With due to respect to Company and employees don't take this review personally it is a good platform where employees should get a good company and company should improve on pointers which employees are highlighting. The green reviews are paid and written by current employees. HR has asked the employees to write the feedback and send back the screenshot for confirmation. So if you are forced to write a review and acknowledge the same then employees will surely write good reviews. We understand few times a only countable employees faces issues in the company and they write bad reviews but this review is completely based on true facts. Count of employees has significantly reduced in past 2 years and people are not staying due to such a bad/toxic culture, zero job security, Mr. Jons behaviour, non transperency Instead of spending money on Utah events spend those on cultural improvement, technology upgrade and on employees growth. Most of the employees need work-life balanced companies and if they get it they strive hard for company success. Good luck to company and their current employees. I will be glad to hear improvement made by company, till then I would like to encourage job seekers to PLEASE AVOID JOINING PLEASE....Read More

Dislikes

1. Zero job security 2. Employees are like disposal 3. Late Salary 7-8th of every month 4. Toxic work culture due to CEO behavior 5. No value to Senior/Experienced employees 6. 2 Month notice period 7. Uses HUBSTAFF to track employee time/submit timesheets. This hubstaff software takes 3 screenshots in every 10mins of your screen, tracks links, software used. 8. 5 employees were fired/asked to leave due to no projects, CEO provided senseless reasons for firing another 3-4 employees saying they were cheating, not able to setup projects on their local systems. 9. All old/core employees left due to worst work culture. 10. HR is child and blindly follows CEO's order to make employee's life miserable. She will ask you turn camera on, she will forcefully ask to join meeting/session/team building activity and asks to provide valid reason in written. 11. Company arranges team building activity/sessions to showcase the good culture but inside story is completely different. 12. HR asks to write reviews and share screen shot of what is written in review to cross check. How can employee write bad about the company then. All 5 start rating is either paid or written by employees under pressure. This review is to help people who are genuinely looking for good companies. I understand no company is perfect every company has their own pros and cons but this has many cons....Read More

Disappointing Interview Experience with D.E. Shaw

I recently interviewed with D.E. Shaw, and it turned out to be one of the most draining experiences I’ve had. The interviewer’s approach felt unnecessarily harsh and dismissive, which made the entire process uncomfortable. At multiple points, the interviewer asked me to drop off the call, even when I tried asking basic questions about the designation, job description, and other details. After the interview, I found myself sitting there for a few minutes, trying to process what just happened. It left me questioning the overall tone and professionalism of the interview. Definitely not the experience I was expecting from such a well-known firm.
