Pros

During the initial days, the company was awesome. Everyone in the company used to be very good.

Cons

This is gonna be very huge: I truly respect Jeff and his Team, but not the managers in Bangalore location. GCO is the worst group to be a part of. You will need to kill you self-respect in order work in GCO. The company has very good values, but no one follows them. During the skip level meetings with HR and Directors, they would ask us to be open, but when you give open feedback, you'll be under the worst manager's radar. You will be targeted all the time. I've seen a lot of good people leaving the company because of the managers, and their worst behavior. There are a lot of gossip mongers on the floor, and if someone doesn't like you, you will be unnecessarily have to face the consequences. In fact, I was one of the victims. My manager has ruined my career, and forced me to resign. I tried escalating this issue to Akshay, but I thought not to waste my time because people doesn't know the meaning of honesty. There was no exit interview. If your manager doesn't like you, you will be treated very badly at the time of exiting the company. I was humiliated too on my last working day. My manager who has ruined many lives is still in LinkedIn, and leading a bunch of inefficient people. People has no guts to complaint against her. Jeff, please save the sold talent which is wrong hands in Bangalore. The close associates of director, and the managers would get promoted. It is not a place for talent.

Pros

On-site gym, free breakfast/lunch, nice colleagues. Work is simple but there is a large amount of it.

Cons

The really good people are now leaving for Stripe or Slack or Airbnb. Little focus on career development. The managers that are succeeding are the usual crowd of unscrupulous self-obsessed manipulators. No-one seems to check that their teams are suffering. Not a lot of training/development opportunities. OKR system doesn't work - it's done very differently depending on your manager.
