Over all it was good. The training was good, salary and incentive are better than many company.

Dislikes

Management Timing ( you have to work after shift end) The senior manager Varun sharma he does nothing and assigned to give lecture rather than helping his team. I don't see any efforts from his side for the company he goes for smoke break every hour, sit, eat & chill.

Only the salary..go for this company if you just want to earn money nd don't give a &₹#& about your mental health. Plus if you're a girl who is above average looks wise.. it's not a safe place to work..i left the company bcuz of that..

Dislikes

Every single thing... 1. You won't feel safe as a girl. 2. Work load is so bad.. they'll stop you from going to loo to even your lunch time. 3. They'll keep a watch on who is leaving their seats nd when and then they'll put ur name in the common grp to come nd meet him to explain why you left your seat. 4. No work life balance 9am to 8-8:30 is normal..ussey niche if you're leaving they'll torture you next day nd in the group as well. Just don't join I've been there leaving my own stream to join edtech bcuz of good money but trust me it's not worth poor mental health and panic attack plus bonus for girls the manager choose you based on your photographs that ye wali meri...nd then that perv will make your life hell along with all the other things mentioned above. Be kind to yourself and join your own stream it's not worth it.

Nothing. Just the salary hike will be good and nothing

Dislikes

Pathetic Management. Do not join this organisation if you want mental peace. Managers are toxic and terrible. They are like Thekedars who are greedy for sales and don’t know how yo behave with employees. No work life balance. You have to work extra hours and even on weekends. If sales not done they will insult you and treat you terribly and also ask to work on week offs. They don’t have leads at all. They just fool people and nothing else. Managers are pathetic and unprofessional
