Pros

- At least they're trying to modernize from their old technologies and certain engineers and management are definitely trying to drive for improved flows. - They try to promote pretty quickly if you know what you're doing so you can have a larger impact.

Cons

There's a serious culture of ignorance, where product engineers refuse to learn anything about the platform provided to them, refuse to know anything about their own deployments, and then are surprised when things don't magically work. As a result, security is ignored to "get things working" and product engineers actively hacking against what platform teams provide them. This and a complete willingness to silo knowledge has led to a lack of any automation, horrible architectures, outages, security breaches, and unscalable practices.

Its very good organisation, Its my honest review. The work culture is very good. People really care about employee. Even managers do understand the circumstances and co-operate with team. Its Employee-centric organisation. CEO [Anil ] is very good and have better leading ideas for the organisation. Its flexible work culture, People enjoy working here, i have not seen any one frustrated with work. We work here as team. If getting stuck at something we take help and time to manage things in our ways. Here there is no hard and fast rule for punch-in and punch-out , It depends upon employee how they want to do their job. Its pretty cool to manage our work in our flexibility basis. Pay scale is also good here. There is perfect work and life balance. Other benefits: 1. Free Lunch and evening snacks. 2. Free Dinner 3. Flexible Time 4. Work From Home option 5.
