Lack of growth structure

Pros

The people are good. In certain teams like sales, operations etc. the managers are pretty great.

Cons

Does not think about the growth of the individual. The work can get repetitive and the higher management will do nothing about it in spite of being told repeatedly the same. The learning is stunted in non-engineering roles (can't comment on engineering)

Pros

You'll get to experience a burnout and depression episodes in your life at least once

Cons

1. All the townhall meetings go something like this - "I can't understand head or tails of this business but I want to be rich. So, you need to work hard" 2. CTO is very immature. 3. CEO is very cunning. A manipulative person.

I am really sad to know that you have experienced a burnout and depression episode because of working at HackerEarth. I request you to please speak with me personally and I assure you I will do whatever I can to address your concerns. However, I do request you not to mislead anyone. Though I don't remember everything I have said at All Hands, I know for sure that wasn't a single instance where we implied that we want to be rich so you need to work hard. Yes, we talk about the growth of the company, we talk about being successful but money is not the goal. The objective is to build a business that creates an impact, the objective is to solve a problem, of course money is one of the consequences of doing all of this. I have always been very open and approachable. I urge you to have a conversation, I really want to understand why you felt this way and how we can address this.

Hi, it is really disheartening to see a bad review. It would really help if you could elaborate more on the feedback so as for us to look into it and work towards fixing it. Every feedback shared is important to us.
