      Happy I made a move here

      Account executive
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      One of the first things I noticed in the company is that everyone tries to make a newbie feel like they are already part of the system. I did hear there were hiccups in the company before my joining. But by the time I came to the organization, the hierarchy structure has been set that everyone was anxious to set new processes and have a new learning curve with these new leaders. It is motivating to see teams aligning and I think that's a great thing. The important point to be noted here is not that the teams look great now, but that they have recognized their problem and worked towards solving it. I see the same attitude in my team. This brings into light their willingness to make something better.

      Cons

      None to me as of today. I will be updating if any. I will relay the cons internally as well. If I am updating here that means I have expressed it to my company and they are working on them. I will be sharing here solely for people considering BStack as their next career option. It is important to show the true essence of an organization for newbies considering BStack. Shows how serious we are towards making our org better.

      Badly managed company with the best product from India

      Anonymous employee

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The work we did in the past was interesting. It was quite challenging and intellectually stimulating. My colleagues are the best people I have ever worked with

      Cons

      Where do I even begin when there are so many to list down:- 1. Founders view employees as slaves. You get treated like slaves and you are micromanaged. Slavery is timed very closely by the HR. No daily wage for coming even 1 minute late or clocking out early. 2. HR is uneducated, uncouth and extremely political and influential. Steer totally clear of this one. 3. Careers come to die in this company. Do not expect any form of career growth. Management is not interested to see you grow. Its because slaves are meant to be slaves 4. All the old people who built this great product are gone. They put in the blood sweat and tears and got NOTHING for it. No shares, no commendation, nothing. 5. Forget about any equity or shares. If the old people did not get even 1 share, why will you. Unless you are an employee in their US office. Double standards are common here 6. Work is all maintenance now. Nothing new is getting built so even the work is not good I would say any more

      We value all our employees for their commitment. Like yourself, we also believe that we have a world class product. A best in class product cannot be built by one or two people. BrowserStack is built by each one of you and only if the team is motivated and passionate about the work that they do everyday. Our clients and our people love the product and the challenging work environment. In order to bring in more professional and experienced hands into the Company, we have created separate functions (Product, Finance, Sales, Marketing, Business Operations etc.) and have restructured HR and Engineering recently. The function leaders are proven professionals and we are sure they will provide the required leadership to people and to the Company. Our endeavor is to continuously improve and learn. We have been doing a lot of employee listening sessions. We have taken an inclusive approach to overhaul our policies and practices. Each of your feedback has been carefully considered and acted upon. We are committed to make BroswerStack a ‘Great Place to Work’.

      Best engineering team, worst work environment & management

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - By far the best engineering team I have ever worked with. - The product has a big international appeal to it and every engineer here solves real first world problems. - Awesome pantry, serious workspace. - Nice pay.

      Cons

      - Horrible HR policies, they sit close to the office door to monitor the in time and out time of the employees. No work from home culture and absolutely 0 team bonding. - No vision, there has been no new product made after its initial two products. Its just bug fixing, maintenance and features. - No ESOPS, the parameters for bonuses is not penned down unlike 20000 other things and is solely in the hand of the management. - The management nitpicks way too much, doesn't like employees walk down from the office for a smoke, shorts are not allowed. - Nothing can be pushed to production without the consent of the CEO / CTO, so technically speaking there is no ownership (unless it is about blaming if something doesn't work out)

      Thanks a lot for appreciating our pantry and product. We like them too! While you were writing this, a lot was brewing at BrowserStack. 1. We were building a new world class app testing product which has been beta launched. 2. We now have a long term incentive plan (ESOP) which has been rolled out to every single employee. 3. We got together as a team to brainstorm ideas on how to make BrowserStack an even more engaging workplace. All these ideas are being acted upon as we write this. 4. While HR never used to track the in and out time, they have moved further away from the door when we rearranged the seating for all…☺. Things are changing for the better at BrowserStack.
