Micromanagement, no work-life balance, and excessive control by the US team
Micromanagement, no work-life balance, and excessive control by the US team
- Pay is decent compared to similar companies.
- Free breakfast/lunch.
- Office buses for pick-up/drop-off.
-
No work-life balance at all. Be ready to spend your late nights at work.
-
US San Diego folks are treated as gods, and Indians comply with anything they ask for. You are not supposed to question them at all.
-
Managers are spineless. They unnecessarily stretch 1-hour meetings to 2.5 hours. If you bring up any concern, the standard response is, "This is how we work."
-
Zero appreciations. People are always fighting/arguing on emails.
