Process
I applied online and was scheduled for an interview. During the interview, the interviewer didn't even bother to turn on the camera, nor did they mention anything towards it. It felt like speaking to a wall.
It was the most empathy-less interview I've ever attended. I didn't even want to continue further, so I purposefully skipped a few questions, assuming this was the culture I had to expect.

Even after working hard for four months, there is no FTE conversionSRE • Former EmployeeBengaluru, Karnataka, IndiaJuly 26, 2022Pros: 25% conversion rate into FTECons: The initial 5 weeks will include training, recorded sessions, and assignments. You will not receive any assistance from mentors for solving assignments. After this, individual projects will be assigned. Even after completing the project, there is no FTE conversion. The FTE conversion is mainly luck here, not performance-based (though they say it is performance-based).
