      Pros

      - Amazing team members. People in the organization, including all leaders are approachable and very supportive. - High focus on having a transparent culture; Monthly All Hands done and all the concerns raised by employees are answered. All of us get together, new hires are introduced, strategic goals & company updates are shared - No office politics - Expectations with regards to aggressive targets and delivering high output is made clear from day 1 - Lots and lots to learn. There won't be a single day where in you would be sitting idle; you are always allowed to experiment and learn; Lots of opportunities for you to learn and grow; you get to wear many hats - With an open door policy, you can reach out to even the CEO/CTO at any given point of time to share your thoughts/concerns and they truly believe that success of HE is not attributed to the founders but to the entire team. - Young energetic crowd, fast paced work environment - HackerEarth in 2 words : Chaotic and fun

      Cons

      - Clear processes are yet to be in place; although good progress has been made lately - Better infrastructure may be :)

      Pros

      Best place to work for a fresher. Even the top level management employees were easily approachable. During my internship, I could freely speak with CEO, CTO, VPs which I believe is rare in other organizations. Average age of the employees working at hackerearth is around 26-27. So you get to work with like-minded people. They are witnessing an immense growth and I wish the same to continue ahead!!!!!

      Cons

      In Hackerearth, for market research, they appoint a buddy to the new interns. Buddy is basically a person to whom interns can reach out to for any queries. They are the team leads for a small number of interns. There has to be some sort of selection criteria for that. The criteria should or rather must check the person's leadership qualities. Sometimes the team leads can cause a real nuisance. Their nonchalance towards giving insights to the interns leads to underperformance of the interns and in turn harms the organization. If the other team leads weren't so cooperative, it would've been difficult to survive in hackerearth. There has to be some sort of screening.

      Pros

      Even though the company is growing fast, there's a clear sense of being with friends and family. You are respected and protected by the team The products HackerEarth has, are competing at a global level. This is really exciting because you will get to work with top notch brands. Also, you see the products evolve in front of your eyes, there's always a new feature added to Sprint and Recruit; you can feel the product team is truly pushing hard to accelerate the roadmaps, always delivering with the highest quality HackerEarth has an "open doors" policy in and you do have time to work along product, sales, ops, HR or marketing at all times You have direct access to Vivek and Sachin (CTO and CEO / Founders) to clarify anything you would like You have clear goals and expected results. These are done along with your direct manager. I personally had the chance to wear many hats and I was always given opportunities to take on more responsibilities and challenges. However, is up to you to earn those opportunities.

      Cons

      HackerEarth is growing fast. This means processes are still not in place and from day one you might feel everything is to be done "yesterday". So, if you -as a employee- like order and a long term clear path, this might not be the place for you. Linked to the previous one: if you do not get involved proactively in the company, you might feel "left out". My advice is to expand your HE network fast and get to know everyone. DO NOT be afraid of speak up and always mingle and say hi. You won't believe how all the doors are open for you.
