The Freshworks "Kudumba" culture is slowly being demised to make way for American capitalism & usual MNC politics. Some of the people on the top have no clue of the reality & just want to keep firing in India & hiring in US in the name of efficiency.

Pay grade is average. Some older folks are siting on crucial roles with no or very less tech knowledge. I think Freshworks should analyse the work and replace with better tech professionals if needed. Rest other things are good with Freshworks.
