Typical US culture of hire and fire 99% leadership is outside India - they take the final call It's not an Indian company anymore Pre IPO, this was a great company. Post IPO, disaster has happened The founder - Girish is also nowhere to be found and might have resigned already

The culture, latest tech stack and possibility of IJP

Flexible working hours

Dislikes

Lately there has been frequent org rearrangements. Managers are never satisfied. Team changes are with immediate effect and quarter reviews are reduced. Managers are more focussed on delivering unattainable ETAs. Career growth wise feels like we are stagnant. All this can vary depending on the team you are in and how your manager is.

Freshworks is a recreation of your college days! You will have to move on after 3 or 4 years The dynamics of the company will change quarter to quarter, you should be open to change at any time, heading into a corporate company setup

Dislikes

Change in leadership Change in executing the strategy Lack of product vision One company wants to do everything and failing miserable Appraisals and heirachy does not make any difference. The salary difference is huge.

It used to be an employee friendly company.

Decent work-life balance, and people are understanding of this.

Dislikes

Language barrier is there. If you are at Chennai office specially at IC to middle management level, people tend use Tamil, which is a really restrictive thing for a company trying to grow internationally and restricts the talent pool the company could be hiring from.
