Good Pay, Short-term Game
Senior Software Engineer • Current Employee
Bengaluru, Karnataka, India
November 13, 2025
Pros: Good pay and people around.
Cons: No culture. They are in a hurry to reach the moon with no idea how to start the engine.
They have hired most successful people from the industry by paying them well.
If you're thinking of quick money and a short-term game, this company is best. Come work for 1-2 years, make money, and leave. Don't come if you're thinking of long-term plans.

Good pay, but too competitive
Senior Software Engineer • Current Employee
Seoul, South Korea
August 30, 2025
Pros: The work environment is competitive and everything moves fast.
It can be good training for juniors. But for seniors, if you don’t pursue exactly what you want, the work will just be draining.
Cons: Engineers also need to care about politics. How things look matters more than what you actually did.
