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.

The culture is accepting of everyone. If you are a newbie in this place, ES will lay down a more than ideal path for you. If you use their resources and the people well, it can be instrumental in your career and development. The seniors in the department are collaborative and there are no egos- just a team. All in all, a delightful place to work at

Dislikes

The salary and hikes can be a little underwhelming. It's tough to penetrate through to the senior management.

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.

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.
