Pros

Decent pay at joining (but that's where the generosity ends) Office space is nice if you're into aesthetics over actual work culture

Cons

Silent Layoffs in Progress: The company has mastered the art of cutting costs without making headlines. Strict HR policies are designed to push employees out without officially firing them. Non-Existent Career Growth: If you're in India, forget about climbing the ladder. All decision-making power is hoarded by the US and UK offices. The highest position you'll see in India is a manager pretending to be a leader. Leadership Exodus: Top managers leave faster than new employees can learn their names. Every few months there's a re-org because the company itself doesn't know what it wants to be. Not a Tech Company, Just a Digital Magazine: The company sells itself as a tech-driven media company, but 90% of the work is about appeasing magazine editors and posting updates in Slack groups. Time Over Talent: The biggest metric for success here is clocking in your hours. It doesn't matter how productive you are — what matters is that you sit at your desk long enough to be seen.

Pros

Great people who do great work.

Cons

The company and powers that be continue to not listen to employees and make decisions that hinder everyone's ability to do their jobs. The higher ups are out of touch and continuously hide behind emails to enforce their agenda.
