The only thing I can think of is the free food. They have free food in the house, so if you are visiting office you can pre-book your meal.

Long list. Will try to highlight important ones. 1) Tech stack: They have their own odessa framework which basically sits on top of .net framework. So you will have to learn their framework first in order to work on any projects. There is no learning opportunities. 2) No proper requirements: There is no planning on how to gate the re quirement. They just take the requirement without even understanding how their system works. Since their product is on old technology it is very difficult to do new changes in the product, which the non technical people doesn't understand<mark style="background-color: #fff5e4;">. 3) Many senior tech employees doesn't know about the new tech skills and they will create a environment where they feel comfortable</mark>. 4) Office politics is worst here you will be evaluated based on your line manager feedback. So irrespective how much effort you put in, all will go into vain if you get bad feedback. Line manager will always put dev team under the bus for their mistakes. 5) Compensation and hikes is worst here and is not comparable as per the industry standards. The list is long as I said but these are the some major ones. One advice to new joiners is that only join if you don't have any other options. Advice to management is that invest on technology.

I joined Odessa 5 years back at a junior level. However, today it is great to work in this position. I recently took L&D courses in Odessa and it was very helpful for upgrading my technical skills. Overall, the company is quite good to work with.

Dislikes

Since the office is located at the traffic hub, sometimes travel becomes quite hectic.

Dislikes

I was hired as an intern

Work Details

I had started my career at odessa as an intern and have worked for almost 2 years in the organization. My manager was very rude and overall experience was realyy bad. Hardwork here does not get rewarded even if an employee works 15 hours a day.
