Freshworks Senior Engineering Manager Reviews

Likes

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.

One of the best company where i worked. Given me a chance to grow and develop my skills.

Firing without knowing the reason all of sudden. That too when i was ill and i have to take care of my mother who is of 87 years old. Which put me in depression i am trying to come out of it. Now its very difficult to get a job at this stage.

People in freshworks is the reason most people stay back for other than the salary aspect.

Dislikes

The Freshworks "Kudumba" culture is slowly being demised to make way for American capitalism & usual MNC politics. Some of the people on the top have no clue of the reality & just want to keep firing in India & hiring in US in the name of efficiency.

Work culture was good when Girish was the CEO.

After changing the CEO continuous and bulk firing is happening without giving any notice of employees. In a single surprise email they deactivated employees from the work However the company revenue there is in a bad state.

Dislikes

No job security. They recently fired 660 employees- that's 13 per cent of the Total workforce even though the company made an annual profit higher than the previous year. Even though I was not affected, I feel embarassed that the higher management shows a lot of greed and being inconsiderate towards employees who work day and night to provide high values and top service to the clients.

Culture of the company is really great providing the delicious food and maintaining healthy work environment is fabulous

Dislikes

There is no job security . Never expected that FW would laid off 660 employee in an hour without any prior notice though company were making the good profit. At the end your an employee how well you perform they will thrown you out just like tissue paper.
