Almost everything worth rating a company for.
- Work life balance is terrible
- There is complete lack of structure / planning
- Goal posts shift all the time
- Everyone is just busy creating meaningless reports justifying why KPIs are not up to the mark (in their defense such reports are all the top management cares about - since they know the targets set are not achievable)

Leadership is excellent and IST sales culture is awesome. People are supporting including top management. No matter working hours are excessive but not felt too tired if you have a good time and people around you.
Dislikes
Appraisals and benefits are uncertain since last few months else it was excellent early and hope same days will be back soon.

- New Projects to work with
- Opportunity to learn a lot
- If someone wants to learn about YT growth, unacademy is a good place
- Great Office
Dislikes
1. Unacademy is a place that experiments a lot and shuts them within 1-2 months
2. Leadership is absolutely incapable of running this company due to lack of strategic vision
3. HR of Unacademy is highly inefficient and pathetic. There are no processes to grow in the role and organisation. The only time unacademy's HR gets active is when they have to lay off people. Otherwise they work in silos
4. Unacademy lacks empathy and respect for good talent as an organisation.
5. The CEO Gaurav Munjal is probably the worst leader I have ever worked with in my entire life. He has zero ethics and basics. He fires people left right and center and publically harass people. He recently demoted someone and emailed the entire organisation about it.
6. The COO got his wife as head of HR and both of them just mint money from this organisation without adding any value.
7. The company forayed and shut down too many verticals very quickly. You must have a solid plan before starting out, especially when you are burning cash. But nobody has any plan in this company
Overall a bad company to work for and that is why it's poorly rated on ambition box....Read More

Till August’23 the culture and the environment was very good but post that all the valuable employee left from top management and new set of ppl had come for a position who all are not having maturity or exposure. So lack of experience new set of ppl are used their personal agenda and ego and destroyed the entire environment.

They are the Pay masters. Very aggressive approach. Founders are involved. Startup’s should learn from them. Really aggressive.
Dislikes
No strategy. Always on pilot mode. Highly top to bottom driven company. CEO needs good people to build the company and should be ‘humane’ in approach. Insulting people for your pleasure makes you a small human being.

Observed some concerning issues at Unacademy that affect work environment and overall morale. One of the main concerns is the delayed salary payments. We are asked to teach in other branches as well, but they don't even provide travelling expenses. We, Educators, are referred to as 'Service Providers' instead of Employees. There isno yearly increment policy. No encashment of casual leaves. In a nutshell, there are no employee benefits for the Educators. There appears to be a tendency to hire individuals who are close relatives of those in senior positions. I found some Educators those who even don't properly teach the lesson and unable to write spellings as well. These Educators are supported a lot as they are very much obedient to those who are so called Seniors. Moreover the workplace politics are very high and it often feels like a toxic environment. It's disheartening to see colleagues being mocked, or talked about negatively behind their backs. Such behaviour undermines teamwork and respect among employees. I can finally suggest all the educators over there not to lock yourselves in this prison wherein we don't even get any recognition....Read More
