Vantaggi
I moved to India from the US in Aug 2012, and spent a long time looking for a startup founded by business leaders. While I wanted to experience the thrill of building an organization, I wanted to work with seasoned professionals. Tarnea provided me exactly that. This organization is founded by industry leaders, who operate a truly flat organization. You will be given responsibilities matching your ability. The perks of working at a startup are: challenging work, ability to lead early in your career, adequate compensation commensurate to your skills and experience. Tarnea provides all of that. The founders listen to both praises and critique with any open mind: something I found missing even at large, reputed companies.
Svantaggi
The con of any startup is dealing with problems and uncertainties daily. However, it is no different from banking or consulting, where challenges arise everyday. If problems and challenges make you nervous, take my advice and stay away from startups. Be ready to work hard.
