When i strarted, growth is very good. We work things together and discuss. Have some party and work as a team. But from covid it is on downfall. No new joining, there are very few employess left. 80% of the team has left, rest they are putting on LWP. Not giving salary to employees from last two months. So they are not in the condition to survive right now.

Joining a new employee, boring him and kicking him out
Dislikes
The environment is not good at all, the staff is incompetent, it is of no use, none of the employees are good at taking decisions, all are free by putting their burden on others.......
This is a rubbish company I joined this company as a team leader but after 2 months they didn't give me salary and no place to work, they will lure you a lot before joining and after joining Suddenly for any reason you will be kicked out and your entire salary will be eaten by this company. All the people who are looking for a new job or have any experience, I would request you not to join this company and spoil your future. Join a good company which has some value in the market, which does not do fraud with the youth....Read More

Please share your ITL to reveal all your updates on this platform.
As such HostBooks is considered to be a best place to work by ambitious people.
Though there were few who were found to be absconded with Company Assets and indulged into data theft. So we are taking legal action against them and also informing their employers too so that they should deal with these frauds with utmost care.
We also have requested Ambition Box to reveal your name to have thorough check and accordingly legal action will be initiated.

I will be honest. 2-3 month company treats u well. After that, company would make u suffer.
Dislikes
I have already connected over LinkedIn with the company, and Ujjwal (hr manager) was very afraid to speak there. Her might dare to reply here because I won't be able to reply him back here.
He is just a "scam" on this earth.
I left the company in July. But company haven't given payslip after Feb. No FNF is cleared and he dares not to respond.

Dislikes
Management is very bad.. Not given my salary for the last month not cleared the full and final settlement, they are totally running a scam. HR name Ujjwal Singh and Mohit Yadav are totally lier giving wrong commitments and not giving salary to staffs. Team leader is also not supportive. Found like they all are involved.
Suggest to never join this scam company just read all the reviews.

I'll keep it concise and crisp:
1. The company works on "word hard party hard culture". You will be rewarded pretty amazingly on deliveries you committed.
2. Being a startup, I got a chance to develop skillset not just around my financial side.. I got exposure in marketing, sales, development to some extent, which is amazing for my overall development.
3. Onto the paycheck side, I have grown 4x in the last 3 yrs.. So I believe, if one is contributing to the overall mission, compensation would not be a challenge..
4. You can directly connect with the Senior Management/Directors and discuss if you are facing any challenges at work.. They are welcoming and always there to assist..
5. Every Friday, there is company-wide employee activity where all of us socialize.. So I many pupils personally as well.. That makes work more fun and easier for me.
6. Most importantly, a big plus plus for me is that there is no work politics....Read More
Dislikes
Things that I dislike are:
1. There are instances where I have to be at work late nights.. But atleast it not very often since I don't let things to get in my backlog.. Plus we have alternate saturdays working..
2. There is no pension plan as most private corporate.. So plan accordingly.. Plus no transportation for daytime shift..
Other than that I don't see any challenge.. Things generally get sorted on discussions with the management...Read More
