Vantaggi

Nothing as such for MBAs. For tier 3 bschool grads, get to work for start up so that in a year or two they can move to a good start up for good work.

Svantaggi

1. Exaggerating JD : There are people in the company who create an exceptional JD so that tier 1 b school guys get attracted, if you have seen ABP JD, you will see P&L management, handling complete city operations etc. In reality, only 2 people get to do this work. That too they are not supposed to use their brains, they just have to do whatever founders say without asking a question 2. ASMs are given a bait of moving to metropolitan, dont fall for it. It is better to do good work in remote locations than doing stupid work in Metros. 3. MBAs dont enjoy the work, coz there is no work good enough to employ an MBA. The work that MBAs get here is take 3-4 interviews of MBAs or Operations Manager, make videos about outlet parameters, watch videos made by your outlet staff(around 200 videos(5min in length)), redo those videos. Thats it nothing else. There is no strategy team which works on how to expand, where to expand, no go to market strategy team, no pricing strategy team, no SCM strategy team. 4. You will be reporting to guys who are intellectually poor, incapable of taking strong decisions. Mostly because, 90% of them never worked for any one except box8. 80% of them are from ISM dhanbad and have the experience of running a college fest and they still are doing the same

Vantaggi

Nothing, they treat employee as slave

Svantaggi

* Leadership concerns: The CTO (shivaji bose) tends to micromanage and behaves as if he knows everything, often treating employees and even managers poorly. * Weak management: Managers lack leadership and innovation. Instead of contributing technically or architecturally, they focus on highlighting employee mistakes and reporting them upward. Many seem to operate out of fear rather than leadership. * Outdated tech stack: The company uses very old technologies and does not invest in modern tools, including AI, likely due to budget constraints. * Toxic work culture: Some managers reportedly target specific employees, creating mental pressure to push them to resign. * High attrition of good talent: Many skilled employees have left. Those who remain often do not meet expected experience standards, including at managerial levels. * Notice period issues: A strict 3-month notice period, with heavy financial penalties even if you leave a day early. * ESOP concerns: ESOPs are offered but lack proper documentation or transparency. * No open communication: Employees feel unsafe raising concerns, as it may lead to termination. * Sudden terminations: Instances of employees being fired abruptly, even after routine meetings like stand-ups. * No severance support: Employees are let go without severance packages. * Mental stress: The work environment can be mentally exhausting and stressful, as confirmed by multiple former employees. Final Verdict: Strongly not recommended due to toxic culture, poor management practices, and lack of employee support.
