5 days work from office and weekends work from home felxibility They blame you for each and everything. Doesn't matter if its business team fault design fault sales team fault. Managers way of motivation is that we will fire you. No good tech guyz left in this company. They will switch your tech stack and team randomly and if you say no fired in that moment itself. Joining bonus - never take this. This will ruin your life

Base pay was good for fresher but no benefits at all.

Dislikes

Terrible company, no culture, no future, no vision. No growth. No career advise. They just shuffle you around teams at their whim. Excruciatingly stupid - DU type people are running the show there in the CTO office, calling themselves project managers. These are the people who haven't ever seen the paper of a competitive exam.

Unacademy’s Unethical Salary Practices – Beware Before Joining I had a highly disappointing experience with Unacademy. Despite fulfilling all my job responsibilities professionally, the company failed to pay my full salary as per the agreed terms. When I reached out to HR, they either ignored my messages or gave vague excuses, showing a complete lack of professionalism and accountability. A company that does not respect its employees' hard work and financial rights cannot be trusted. If you are considering working here, be prepared for payment delays and unresponsive HR. There are far better organizations that value integrity, fairness, and transparency.

No strategy. Always on pilot mode. Highly top to bottom driven company. CEO needs good people to build the company and should be ‘humane’ in approach. Insulting people for your pleasure makes you a small human being.
