Pros

very good and smart team (on Bangalore side), good co-ordination with US office, every one is very hard working (i believe, but had some bad rappo with few people here, don't know how they got hired)

Cons

- partiality with US office, US office treated very nicely - Fast hiring process in US office, India office very slow - bad management from HR (even when not hiring, they are slow to respond, idk what they do during work that is so important) - US office gets medical benefits (90% of the original cost), while india office has only 5L rupees as insurance protection - US office gets ergonomic standing desk with 36 inch wide monitor screen - US office gets minimum 14 days mandatory off with unlimited leaves - equity for US employees none of the above perks for India office where most heavy work happens...

Pros

I've spent over a decade in the device management space, and what drew me to Esper was the rare combination of technical excellence and genuine commitment to organizational health. This is a leadership team that doesn't just talk about culture—they invest in it. The company is on remarkably solid financial footing. We've been recognized repeatedly as one of the fastest-growing startups in the industry, backed by investors who truly understand the space and are in it for the long haul. That stability lets us make smart, strategic decisions rather than desperate ones. The CEO is genuinely open to feedback and committed to building something sustainable—not just chasing growth at all costs. Strategic clarity here is refreshing; everyone knows what matters. If you're energized by transformation and want to be part of a company evolving from startup scrappiness to enterprise maturity, this is an exciting place to be.

Cons

We're in a real transition—moving upmarket to enterprise while still serving a long tail of smaller customers. That means competing priorities and some growing pains as we figure out how to operationalize at scale. Not every system is fully built yet; some weeks feel like we're building the plane while flying it. The pace can be intense, and like most companies our size, you'll wear multiple hats.
