Pros

Good location & food.

Cons

No quality work and low engagement project. Rakuten India works like a manpower company where you have two bosses and a remote manager, who is least bothered after your hiring. COO, CPO & CEO will always be busy in thanking each other and giving and taking credit among themselves. They also hire from their own 1-2 consultants, their old team in Sr Management. so if you are an outsider, you are an odd one!.. with 900+ staff hardly any engineering or research work. its all

Pros

Rakuten Rewards has great life balance. Too bad the economy was getting rocked.

Cons

Don't really have any cons. I understand that the market's been hard so had to downsize the force, so that was kinda challenging. Hopefully AI will increase everyone's output.
