Svantaggi
Transparency:
There is a lack of transparency regarding management-level decisions and the overall product roadmap. Information is often not shared with junior developers or SDE-1 level employees, which can make it difficult to understand the broader direction and long-term vision of the product.
HR Structure:
The HR function is managed by a single individual and she is the wife of founder. Due to this, employees may feel limited in openly discussing certain concerns or seeking clarity on policies.
Appraisal and Bonus Policy:
It is important to clarify appraisal cycles and bonus payout structures at the time of joining. Do not assume they follow standard industry practices. The company typically has two cycles for appraisal and bonus payouts, generally aligned with Q2 and Q4 of the financial year. Employees should not assume that increments or bonuses will be processed immediately after completing one year.
Skill Development:
For freshers, this can be a starting point to learn basic CRUD APIs, validations, and frontend development using React. However, opportunities to work on advanced system design concepts, modern architectural patterns (such as event-driven architecture), or well-structured design practices appear limited. A significant portion of development is done in Ruby on Rails, and technical decisions are often influenced by what they have done in ruby on rails.
Work Culture:
As a small organization, you work closely with the founder. While this offers direct exposure, the communication style of founder can sometimes feel intense or non professional manner.
Work Timings:
The official working hours are 10 AM to 7 PM. While employees are expected to start at 10 AM, leaving exactly at 7 PM may not always be viewed positively, depending on workload or expectations. If you start leaving at time you might get to hear that are you labour class you leave on time without completing the work.
Perks and Benefits:
Compensation is too low relative to the workload and expectations. Prospective employees should evaluate the offered package carefully before accepting.
Job Security:
Job security may be a concern. In certain cases, employees may be asked to leave immediately without being allowed to serve a notice period, and notice pay may not always be provided.
