Pros
  • Get to talk to Deepinder, Abhinder, and Thakur daily.
  • Too much money, just too much. Sometimes 75 lakhs, other days it becomes 30 lakhs.
  • Too many stocks.
  • Get to work on the most pressing issues that can shake the stock market of India.
  • Most important company after Reliance in India, as said by another SDE 2.
  • Salary doubles every fortnight on paper.
  • Unlimited leaves without informing anyone beforehand.
Cons
  • Deepinder talks too much; I cannot work. Albhinder never works and puts all his responsibility on UG.

  • Volatile stock. People whose joining and appraisal are near December get a high share price versus people who join after December.

  • 90% work done by ChatGPT. A lot of gold coins were sold during Diwali. You work on Sunday Diwali to sell gold coins, a very important job after PM.

  • CEO using company resources to build another startup and poaching employees from Zomato (let this be a lesson to Sequoia).

  • No Zomato coupons, free delivery that too only in the office.

Advice to Management

Please work, don't talk to me all day and invite me to your parties. No alcohol should be offered; it's very expensive, beyond our reach. And please take care of senior data scientists also in the Gurugram office. They post stuff as if they failed in life a lot and you just took them for no specific reason.
