Pros

No benefits, just a timely salary. Join only if it's your last resort, and leave as soon as a better opportunity comes along.

Cons

- Many employees in the U.S. were laid off, with jobs being outsourced to lower-cost offices in India. - This has created competition rather than collaboration between teams in India and the U.S., as each region tries to secure more work. - The technology is outdated, with little room for innovation. This company does not function like a true product company. - While the use case is promising, excessive workload and micromanagement will leave you overworked, stressed, and prepare you to be a client of this company for the future. - Working on weekends is the norm, and those who do are encouraged and rewarded. The manager forces you to be available around the clock. - High attrition is a major issue—most employees leave within a year, leading to constant hiring. Many join here as a last resort. - They provide lunch, but the quality is so poor that it could lead to health issues. - Special lunches are arranged only when U.S. higher management visits, as they wouldn't survive eating the daily meals provided to Indian employees. - The management is terrible, with no real career growth. - They deceive new hires by inflating the value of their stock options, claiming they are worth $75, when in reality, they are worthless. The ESOP program is a scam. Every year they show the dream of going for IPO, which never happens. - If you have no other option in this tough job market, you can join as a last resort—but leave as soon as a better opportunity arises. - I had no idea how can a company in health domain can be so unhealthy and soul sucking. This company has the potential to destroy your entire career. - Avoid this company at all costs if you can.

Pros

coworkers, some benefits, not much else

Cons

Low pay, no movement for career growth, AI implementation training disguised as an improvement when you can see the support teams are being asked to train the AI in order for it to replace them, gaslighting from management that everything is fine when customers are extremely unhappy and only the front line workers have to deal with that anger day in and out, as others have reported critical thinking and feedback with genuine process improvements are not ignored, which would be bad, but literally punished. I am only here because I haven't been fired yet and I'm looking for something else in a challenging job market
