Software Development Engineer II • Current Employee
Pros: I have been working at Zepto for more than a year, having joined as a fresher and getting promoted within a year to SDE II. I have had a wonderful experience working here, and I highly recommend it, especially for freshers seeking rapid growth.
1. Ample Learning Opportunities and End-to-End Ownership: You get numerous opportunities to learn and take full ownership of projects from start to finish. Hard work is recognized and rewarded.
2. Supportive and Talented Team: People here are incredibly talented, and there’s always something new to learn from everyone. Team members and some managers are very supportive, acting more like senior mentors guiding you toward a better future rather than just colleagues.
3. Competitive Base Salary: The base salary is on par with other companies, ensuring that you are fairly compensated for your work.
Cons: 1. High Pressure for Quick Deliveries: Requirements often demand quick feature deliveries, resulting in constant pressure to complete tasks. Sometimes, this includes late-night deployments and changing priorities in the middle of projects.
2. Employee Benefits: The employee benefits package is not as competitive compared to what other companies offer, which could be improved to better match industry standards.
