Dislikes

1. Limited in learning and growth beyond the first year 2. Company has terrible product market fit 3. Core focus keeps changing and they have no serious pivot 4. Extremely toxic in terms of office politics 5. Middle management layer is expanding and a clear path for growth not visible here for next 3 years atleast 6. Company didn'tpay out competitive increments and annual bonus where in many cases they paid out peanuts in 2023 7. External hiring is promoted compared to internal promotions 8. Organizational restructuring keeps happening every quarter leading to mis management 9. Even though it's a startup there's surprisingly a lot of bureaucratic process leading to slow delivery to clients 10. Company doesn't keep good focus on employee feedback and even when they do, they don't act promptly or satisfactorily on it....Read More

Dislikes

a lot of Biasness and partiality, they should allow flexibility for work from home also, leave balance is not encashed so a lot of leaves accumulated go waste, hikes and appraisals are not justified at all

Worst choice: A journey through toxic culture, micromanagement, undervalued contributions, political HR, celebrated double standards and more yet to be unveiled issues.

Dislikes

My experience was disappointingly negative. Here's a concise breakdown of the issues: 1) Toxic Work culture: The work environment at Ninjacart is toxic , impacting both personal well-being and professional growth. 2) Lack of direction: Ninjacart lacks a clear roadmap, leaving employees uncertain about the company's goals and future. 3) Inconsistent Feedback: Feedback is erratic, resembling a general store where compliments today may lead to termination tomorrow. 4) Absence of HR: Surprisingly, Ninjacart lacks a proper HR department, resulting in a lack of standardised support for employees. 5) Authoritarian Leadership: Decision-making is one-sided, with little regard for employee input, creating an imbalanced power dynamic. 6) Ignorance of industry Practices: Ninjacart is unaware of industry best practices, raising concerns about its competence and commitment. 7) Ineffective Management: Managers are disconnected, showing little interests in their team activities, causing confusion and disarray. 8) Lack of user Focus: Despite grand claims, Ninjacart fails to incorporate user perspectives in its vision, prioritising grand plans over practical user needs. 9) Undervaluation of contributions: Ninjacart fails to acknowledge and value individual contributions, resulting in a demotivating environment where hard work goes unnoticed. 10) Political atmosphere: Diplomacy and politics within teams at Ninjacart create a challenging and divisive working environment. 11) Double Standards in Recognition: Ninjacart practices double standards by highlighting only leadership on platforms like linkedin and during celebrations, neglecting to recognise the efforts of other dedicated employees. 12) Team Disregard and Leadership Overpower: Ninjacart shows a lack of respect for other teams, undervaluing their contribution. leadership consistently dominates every discussion, stifling collaboration and hindering effective decision making 13) Micromanagement and Loyalty Emphasis: At NInjacart, micromanagement is pervasive, limiting managerial autonomy. The leadership's insistence on unwavering loyalty creates an environment where employees feel pressured to priorities pleasing leadership over independent decision-making. 14) Ineffective HR Representation: Ninjacart's HR fails to advocate for employees, appearing politically aligned with leadership rather than prioritising employee concerns. These concerns are just a glimpse into the broader challenges, indicating there are more areas where Ninjacart should focus its efforts for enhancement. In summary, my time at Ninjacart was marked by a toxic culture, a lack of direction, ineffective leadership, undervaluation of individual contributions, and a politically charged atmosphere. The company's double standards further contribute to an overall disheartening experience. I hope this critique serves as constructive feedback for improvement....Read More

Dislikes

A sinking ship in terms of culture. Extreme micromanagement in fintech teams and toxic works culture and rules. Deserving employess don't get promoted. Good tech leads are getting fired. Favouritism and boot lic*ing everywhere. HR are not really taking concern and action about the problem or issues raised, only doing the formalities to just connecting with employees.
