Pros

Pay is okayish, but there are other better places with much higher pay and better employee wellbeing.

Otherwise, absolutely nothing. Everything in general is toxic.

Cons

This place can make you hate development — not because of an immense workload, but due to the complete lack of guidance or mentorship. Compared to previous organizations I’ve been part of, which had great mentors and thorough KT (Knowledge Transfer) sessions, Zeta offers little to no support. For freshers or those with less than two years of experience, mentorship is virtually nonexistent. Even when you reach out for help, you often receive no guidance — yet if you make a mistake, you face excessive criticism and questioning from people who themselves may not know the solution.

There is a poor work-life balance with 5 days work from office — frequent weekend work with no recognition, rewards, or appreciation. The HR department is unprofessional and unhelpful. They often delay responses to raised requests, fail to follow up, and tend to look down on newcomers to the industry. Unlike most organizations that provide sufficient time to upskill and adapt, Zeta expects employees with little to no prior exposure to their products to become 100% proficient after utterly mediocre training.
