Pros
Job-Seekers For Job Seekers, its a good opportunity. The organization is evolving from a start-up to process oriented work place. As the organization grows, the earlier you enter, the faster you will rise up the ladder. PubMatic is totally focused & dedicated towards I.P.O. with-in next one or two years (Hopefully, by 2013). Growth & Management If you have got talent & willing to give everything for growth, just knock on V.P.'s/C.T.O's (co-founders) door. You will be given exciting & challenging problems to solve. For first few tasks, you will to find time your-self. Once you have won the trust, you will be given dedicated time for much bigger challenges. Everyone @ PubMatic has observed this from time to time. The Leads Most leads have been with PubMatic for very long time. They have aqcuried the skills of good leader ship under the guidance of the co-founders. They are very understanding & helpful. Trust the decisions they make. If something goes wrong, they are always there to fix things up as long as you are communicating with them.
Cons
If you are looking for start-up environment, PubMatic is not the place for you. As PubMatic grows, you will continue to see more & more processes. One most notable change has been introduction of not so friendly HR policies. The change in working environment is evident & you are likely to find not so happy old employees because of these changes. Key worrying factor: The requirements do not freeze, but the delivery time-line does. The "Higher-Management" team which sits in US is always under the impression that almost every-one is free of work @ development center.
