Pros

I thought this was going to be an interesting start up opportunity with a fast-growing company.

Cons

This review can and should apply to any role within the organization, especially BDM, because it is an inside view into OYO's culture which flows across job titles. My number one con is that the company is unethical and predatory. This is a top-down ethos which reflects on every core area in the business, from sales and contract negotiations, to expansion and talent acquisition, etc. You have no job security with this company, because they have built, and continue to build a reputation for dishonesty. There is no future in that business model. Expect to be held accountable to meeting impossible standards with bare minimum supporting resources. OYO's management treats TA as outsiders and not value-added partners. They expect order takers when the leadership team doesn't know the first thing about giving orders: blind, incompetent, and desperately disorganized. Not to mention they only want to hire young people, and refuse to consider anyone with over 5 years of experience. Maybe that is acceptable in India, but it's illegal in the United States. OYO is begging for an age discrimination lawsuit.

Pros

Plenty of opportunities to work on real-world machine learning problems, exposure to large-scale data, supportive colleagues, fast-paced culture that encourages growth and continuous learning.

Cons

Work-life balance can be challenging at times due to tight deadlines, rapid changes in priorities, and the need to adapt quickly in a high-pressure startup-like environment.
