Pros

- Good company to start your career - Lot of opportunities to learn new things - Amazing people - Very International - Friendly Co-Founders

Cons

- Poor leadership on the Business side of C-Suite. They are good to run the business as usual as they joined the company as interns more than 7 yrs ago. However they lack vision and the necessary drive to bring the company to the next level. - Concentration of power within a specific group of top level who decide everything in the company and always think they made the right decision. They decide who they want to hire on their team if there is an open position. No fair chance is given to other existing employees to interview for higher positions. Lot of Nepotism and Favoritism. - Changes in the company structure 1-2 times a year - People managers are not considered for their suggestions when making changes to their teams. The top management just decide themselves and then ask people managers to share this decisions and make things work - Some top managers lack sense of collective responsibility. Do not take ownership of the mistakes they make. But when you make one mistake, it will be the reason for you not getting promoted - Lack of empathy from some top management. They might be good in running the business, and good managers. But poor leaders - Feedback to some too management is just useless as they they would just listen and not change anything - HR team openly promotes speaking up and giving feedback, but when you do it, it is not appreciated. And in turn you get a feedback from them that you talk too much - Career progression is slow. Even after a good 360 feedback, your manager has the power to not promote you or put you up for promotion - Incompetent managers who are closer to top levels will have a better chance to progress - Huge inconsistencies in salaries. They pay employees 20-30% less salary than the range defined by the company itself. Forget about comparing salaries with other companies - No innovation or encouragement for people with an innovative mindset. You will be just asked to talk to someone else, and then that someone else to someone else - No bonus to any other teams except the KAM team - No budget for team events if you are a team who does not make revenue directly. You will be seen as a cost center - Hardly any employee benefits
