The interviewers.... both were very much professional and due to which I have a lot of respect for them. They are not like the Indian interviewers who treats you like anything. Also work from home is being provided until the new building is getting completed in Bangalore.

Dislikes

- This place is crawling with Ex Byju's Employees. I don't had an issue with them until they started micromanaging. - Most of the ex-Byju's employees being interviewed for name sake and hired. - People with having less than 2 yrs experience leading teams of senior folks and taking interviews of senior folks.....talk about irony. - They put One ex-Byju's employee on top of my manager's hirerchy. And since my manager is in USA these ex-Byju's employee is treating it's folks as first class citizens and the folks from other organisation as second class citizens. - They are keeping a standup call daily with 60+ people. Many of which I don't work with. And keep asking updates. Talk about work culture 🤣 - The structure is not proper here. Though being a MNC they are behaving like a startup. - They don't have other reimbursement policies like internet. My advice will be go for other opportunities instead of this one....Read More

From PIP to Promotion – The Greatest Jugaad Story Ever!

Hey, AB fam, PIP = Corporate death sentence. I was there too🥲—panicking, checking Naukri every 5 minutes, watching Bhagavad Gita reels at 2 AM. Priya Ma’am, my boss, had lost faith in me. Friends said, "Bro, PIP se promotion tak koi nahi jaata." But I refused to go down. My Survival Jugaad? Chai Pe Charcha – Timed my tea breaks with hers. "Ma’am, elaichi daalni chahiye thi." Next day? She agreed. Trst unlocked. In meetings, I nodded like a bobblehead. "Ma’am, truly visionary! Aap to corporate Rani Lakshmi Bai ho!" Smiles = Achieved.. Emotional Connect – She loved dogs. I updated my DP with one. "Ma’am, my dog wakes me up for meetings!" Bond = Secured.😉 The Final Jugaad – She looked stressed. "Ma’am, even Dhoni takes a break!" She smiled. Game over. After a few months "Congrats on your Promotion!" Moral? Hard work is good. Smart work is better. But jugaad? Boss, that’s the best! Got a crazier PIP escape? Drop it below! 😂👇
