Join to politically motivate your self or if your contesting in any politics in future. Consider yourself most unlucky if you get to work with Apoorv or Prabhakar. Couldn't say more due to community guidelines.

1. Bad culture of hire and fire 2. As soon as you spend sometime in the company and your salary increases, you become the first one to get fired irrespective of your contributions 3. ZERO job security 4. Frequent changes to organizational strategies 5. No policies related to improvement of employee engagements 6. No flexibility regarding work from home irrespective of any urgencies 8. No investment in improving processes regarding financial operations at this scale. Everything is manual highly prone to manual errors 9. All the business verticals work in their own silos without any integration and synergies 10. No objectivity on firing of people. Even one quarter of bad performance and you are on your way out even if you couldn't have influenced any decisions yet you are victim of bad management decisions. And this is the story of each and every quarter...Read More

The company is definitely very good over all as they are quite employee centric and has a very healthy environment. Supportive managers and peers until you are intentions towards the company is good. For someone who is not serious I would still say that the company will take care of you but only till a specific amount of time.

This is a typical 'one-man show' type of company, managed entirely by one person. There’s not much to like about it. I worked here for approximately four years, and based on my experience, I strongly advise against leaving a good job to join this company. Most people barely last 4-5 months here; either they quit out of frustration, or they get fired. If you’ve heard positive things about this company, it’s likely because of paid influencers or biased opinions....Read More

Everything i disliked even you can not take more than 2 tea in a day. In the admin team Hemant Bajpai he is pushing everyone to cost cut on everything even on drinking water. So on your next assignment bring water with you from your home.

Obviously pathetic work life balance. Extended working hours. Unplanned meetings so long time till 12PM midnight. They plan such sale offers that u need to sit and work (like no other option) on weekends. HR's are not good at all. I donno why they call themselves as Human resource. They do their jobs and responsibilities exactly opposite to their title. Note: The review's mentioned for the company are most of them are fake. It is asked by HR's to employees write so positive reviews by creating some fake accounts. Not at all recommended to join in this company. Its upto u again....Read More
