There's a lot to learn. The organisation gives you the opportunity to work with the best people. With a lot of creative minds.

Dislikes

The compensation for the lack of work life balance simply doesn't make sense. If an employee is going out of their way to devote 12-14 hours per day, which most editors and stakeholders do the monetary benefits should be designed in a better way.

Promotions - Poor

apart from the salary given to a writer, there's nothing worth appreciating in this company. I left the job within a month and didn't even get any call from HR Samir. (Seems a scammer). No offer letter no reliving letter no documentation. Too many kids soy boy kids working. Pretty toxic work culture. The content head is knowledgeable but the editors are shit. The editors do not help you a bit and ask you to do things while they just pinpoint things and ask for changes. bizarre management.

Salary - Good

Dislikes

Can't even get started in this. The site is click bait site. Non of the articles are related to Fans' perspective as the moto says. Instead, the site is for casual fans who sniff stupid information. No one talks about talent, skills, techniques but only care about click bait topics.

Skill development - Bad

Just had to share this, I got a 100% hike!

I'm keeping this anonymous because I don’t want to disclose it in real life. After two years without a raise, I successfully negotiated a 100% increase at my current company. I focused on creating significant value and worked in cross-functional teams to learn as much as possible. There were times when I was overworked, but it was all worthwhile. I was confident that it was a mutually beneficial situation. My advice would be to choose your job wisely, create value in the right place, and don't be afraid to negotiate.
