Its a great product based company. You can get exposure to lot kf different tech stacks and you'll feel responsible for the tasks that ur working on. Great learning experience.
Dislikes
Promotions depends on how much you have a good bonding with your manager and how willing is he to fight for it.
Salary is somewhat low compared to market standards.

Working on a high-scale product.
Dislikes
Culture is a bit hectic nowadays, no work-life balance. Expecting more works to do in a very shorter time. Few Internals tools needs more improvements.
Good place for new learning, interesting projects and people with good Technical knowledge. Food provided at office is good in general.
Dislikes
Poor work life balance. No proper KT for new-joinees regarding their product. We have to figure out everything on our own
