Houzeo has been a great place for me to work at. Since it's a startup you get to engage in different projects which contributes to your holistic development.
As a content writer, you won't just be limited to writing, you'll get to learn deeply about SEO among other things.
Overall, if you have a growth mindset, Houzeo can be a great place to work at.

Got the opportunity to work as a Lead at Houzeo.
Worked on key projects.
Dislikes
Despite contributing significantly to the company’s success, I didn’t receive the respect I deserved.
The company claims to be international but operates like a local business.
Long 12-hour shifts after a few days.
The organization seems to be declining in traffic. Avoid if possible.

The company says its headquartered in America, but in reality its a local Indian company🤣.
They have a 12 hour shift after a few days. Apart from this, they're going down in all aspects, so try and stay away

Nothing good to say about company.
(They do have good street food outside company premises)
Dislikes
Doesn't have a proper management .The company itself doesn't know what they are doing,terrible hr department.If there is an issue we definitely can't reach out to hr ,they will make the situation worse and makes it seems like it is employees problem and will start shouting .
Super toxic enviromnent .If you are planning to join this firm please don't. Even if you join there will be no benifits, within 2 months you will definitely quit,the notice period is of 3 months and they will not make you complete those 3 month and withing that period you will be fired . At the end you will not have any experience certificate ,and you may get new trauma for work places.
Don't even have a single good point to say,
Joined this organization with huge expectations and sacrificed may things for this job but right now I regret. The trauma from the company made me worse destroyed my whole life....Read More

My experience with Houzeo was painful. I had moved to the city for this job. In the beginning it was fine. But soon the job became mundane and you do the same pointless exercises while being pressured under nothing short of a dictatorship.
I believe writing is a very subjective thing. But they rate you based on their preferences and give you gradings that can affect your mental health. They even classify you under terms like "bad writers" and make you go through public humiliation.
But the true cherry on top was after my resignation. The behaviour from the management to the HR turned passive aggressive. They failed to communicate details and if you ask for any they behaved as if you hurt their precious ego.
Apart from being unprofessional the sheer number of people that left during just my tenure will give you a brief idea of what they do to you. So if you are wondering whether to join there as a writer I will openly tell you: NO, do not waste your time in this trap....Read More

1. Exposure to a lot of tools
2. Fast growth based on performance
3. Flexible timings
4. Chance to collaborate with other teams.
Dislikes
1. Weak HR Department. The policies change verbally but are not made formal after an issue arises.
2. Appraisal is not given on time making it difficult for people who genuinely want it. It is also discouraging for older employers as there are no other incentives otherwise.
3. The management fails to take appropriate action when an issue arises. They wait for the problem to cool down and then it goes back to its toxic state.
4. The manager lacks the soft skills and professional attitude required to lead and bring the best out of the team. Imagine working for a manager whose mood influences every team member's mood for the day. Sad isn't it?
5. Too much micro-management. There are too many updates and too many meetings to discuss those updates. Honestly, meetings and updates have wasted people's time more than anything.
It is embarrassing to work for a company where the manager calls team members "beta or children" (Everyone on the team is an adult). Favoritism is also an issue. If you are friends with the manager you can go 6-7 months without producing substantial work and still get a grand farewell. At the same time, good employees who struggle to be productive for a week or two are made to feel like criminals. If you are on notice period, then you are treated worse. Most likely they will put you on PIP and terminate you even though you put in the papers already.
At Houzeo, people with personal issues in life will struggle to keep up. The company expects you to work to the bone and do extra work with no additional pay. When struggling employees perform badly, instead of helping them, the manager taunts and demoralizes them by making them feel small. Such employees end up leaving to protect themselves.
A team built on hypocrisy with a moody manager and weak professional foundations will not create a team that achieves long-term results but short-term results for temporary happiness and a few cakes....Read More

1. Working with the Houzeo India has provided me with abundant learning opportunities. Initially I started as a content writer but I have seen been able to expand my skillsets to include SEO analysis.
2. Although there is some pressure in the workplace, it can actually contribute to positive growth by allowing you to handle multipleclusters of responsibilities.
3. The manager I worked with had extensive experience in marketing and a deep understanding of SEO analysis. Her knowledge and expertise were invaluable, and she consistently provided exceptional support and guidance....Read More
Dislikes
1. I was not fond of having to work on alternate saturdays, even though it was a work from home.
2. The office ambience is average, mainly due to the lack of space for lunch.
3. While employee engagement activities are limited, I must say that the annual party was truly enjoyable.
