Rippling

• Great base pay.
• If you consider work as your life, then this is the company for you.
• You can always do something, and you'll get recognized for it.
• No micromanagement, flexible work timing (though you'll be working always).
• Nice office, free food and snacks.
• Recently added cab service.
• 7 lakh health insurance without sublimit.

PIP culture. Everyone's performance is monitored continuously, so it's a rat race. If you work like any normal person, you'll be PIPed to oblivion. No WLB.

Focusing on pace rather than code quality. Push shoddy code to prod, but ensure the feature works. Handle hundreds of prod issues later; that's the strategy.

To be honest, nothing. To build a compound startup, you'll have to hire machines and fire humans. But at least management is paying really well, so it's a choice for each person to stay or go. My only advice is to keep being the paymaster in India; that's your only edge. Since other companies are firing people in the US and opening R&D centers in India, there will be companies that pay better, and your top talent will jump ship.
