RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEO
Pros
  1. Work from anywhere - WFH from any city/country recognized by the company.
  2. Innovation weeks + ShipIt to try out new ideas.
  3. More freedom compared to other Indian companies.
Cons
  1. Work-life balance exists only in some teams. Given that hikes are ordinary, expect work-life balance to be in all teams.

  2. There is a huge gulf in terms of culture and work between Sydney and Bangalore.

  3. Work at the Bangalore center is mostly mundane and ordinary. One example is 10+ year engineers doing only CRUD operations.

  4. The Bangalore center has grown too big, too fast. The end result is mundane work and culture deterioration.

Advice to Management
  1. Do better work than only CRUD. Lots of engineering problems to be solved apart from only CRUD.

  2. Stop deteriorating culture and values.
