Dislikes

Everything from the bad WLB, the overbearing authoritarian CTO and his lackeys. Obscure greek names for the overengineered platform services which we're forced to consume, instead of simpler OSS alternatives.

Likes

1. Great co-founders with good ethics and strong personalities 2. Good salary and perks 3. Finance domain is challenging and interesting

Dislikes

1. Work life balance was difficult 2. Too frequent team re-orientations, creates lot of confusion. Many a times this leads to lack of direction for months. Leads to internal politics to stay relevant. 3. Employees work under a constant fear of elimination. You may be a star performer this quarter, and may be asked to leave the next quarter.

Good problem statement. Latest technology stack. Good compensation. Highly professional and quality employees, especially ones that were hired during Covid. Good facilities in the office.

Dislikes

Unclear problem-product fit. RTO and mandatory attendance policy. Unprofessional early-stage employees flexing their bloated titles and closeness to founders. Individual centric appraisal and no org/team level bonuses. Appraisal comes with one year bond. Changing notice periods. No transportation/allowance provided by company.
