Impact and fast paced

Dislikes

The leadership is horrible. They don't care about employers or their learning. The culture is bad and the tech stack is horrible as well. People expect to be spoon-fed. Well, 70%+ people are freshers/SDE1s. In some teams its either what a non technical manager says or the highway

My Experience with Urban Company – Highly Disappointing I had a deeply unsatisfactory experience with Urban Company, where the management lacks ethics, professionalism, and basic accountability. Employees, whether workers or those in business roles like Business Development Associates, are treated poorly without respect or consideration. The company fails to create a positive work culture or offer meaningful career growth opportunities. The senior team, including individuals like Jatin Gupta, Anshu Pathak, Rohan Kumar, and Akshay Chawla, indulge in favoritism and politics. Instead of supporting and uplifting new employees, they engage in behavior that discourages growth. I left the organization 15 days ago, yet I have not received my full and final settlement, relieving letter, or experience letter. Despite numerous follow-ups, no one responds to calls or messages, including reporting managers. This lack of support is unacceptable and has even delayed my ability to join another company. For those considering joining Urban Company, please be aware that: - No career growth:Regardless of how long you work—6 months, 1 year, or more—there are no opportunities for advancement. - Toxic environment: Internal politics overshadow any potential for success. - Unresponsive management:Managers avoid accountability, and the HR department is ineffective in addressing concerns. And also only promotes who work for long time in manager role if any one joins in a manager role but they get after appraisal growth city because internal who work from since 3 - 8 years they getting promotion only and also they judge by word of mouth to each person without seeing work and dedication I never want to come this company and not prefer not join If you want work for 3 months and it's okay And it's a contract job by quess crop But quess crop didn't see any employment mental health which treated by urban clap private limited We are the employee of quess crop I think they have to see if not then quess crop image also down due to urbanclap private limited (urban Company)....Read More

Dislikes

Their work culture which is poisonous, No Work life balance. No Perks. Best place to learn politics. Managers share their super admin access with their friends who can selectively pick out quality requests and leave just trash for you. Do not expect any humanity from them. I have seen them forcing people to work on their phone when laptop dies. Good place for you if you can wipe boots of your manager....Read More
