Pros

They provide remote working environment which was the only reason i stayed.

Cons

They demand you work for more than 10 hrs a day also the work is not technical. Most of the work is to clean, fix code that that is a patch work done by there CTO and other early folks. Founder are toxic and want everything done in a day, they themselves are responsible for breaking things in the first place. They behave like a startup when they want things to be done, but during hike they behave like MNC 1-5% hike if at all given. 10% max on promotion which is only give to people who die for them. For the last 1 year only 5-10% people in company got even this. That's from a workforce of 6k-7k people. There on-call schedule never ends sometime whole team is on-call fixing things and then the management also wants you to finish your usual work on time.

There stock options is also not great they want you to pay almost 80% of the current stock price it does not even make sense.

Advice to Management

They don't listen to feedbacks.
