Pros

1. No overtime, office closes at 6 .30 PM. 2. Great View from the building. 3. Great quality of products being built. 4. Pin drop silence on the tech floor, great place for introverts! 5. International Trips only for "Internal Employees".

Cons

1. Dictatorship, the CEO/Founder thinks highly of his own opinions ONLY. 2. The CEO claims to be HR himself and he is a difficult person to have a conversation with because of his "Know It All" nature. 3. No set policies, they can change overnight. 4. No growth. No career trajectory. 5. The CEO will shove you down the whole team's throat if you are "yes-man" or have a React Nano-degree for some weird reason. You will see Redmath employees glorifying their JAVA certifications and React Nano degrees (some also distribute sweets on successful completion) just to get in the eyes of their line managers or the CEO himself for a good raise or a promotion :) 5. Sometimes you get a "back to school" feeling with CEO being the headmaster, there had been policies for not using your cellphone/ social media on the floor. 6. For some reason wearing round necks is a problem here, you gotta dress up like a banker. 7. No team building activities, No trips. 8. They will hire contractors and sell them the idea of being an "internal employee" at Redmath eventually like it's Google or something. At the same time they will pay those contractors less, they will NOT send their contractors to international trips (despite the fact how good they are) and have the audacity to claim that they treat every employee equally. Don't get trapped in this dogma if you are hired as a contractor already. 9. They have pretty incompetent line managers, if you are working there its pretty okay that your line managers will note your arrival timings.

Pros

- Get to work with great people - Typical work time 9-5 - Clean facilities, no power outage issues

Cons

- CEO micromanagement: Okay, so the company is great overall. But micromanagement is holding it back. A lot of talented folks left the company just because of this. Everything is decided by him. No HR nothing can represent employees. They encourage employees to just take it to the CEO directly (they == CEO) but that’s not how it works anywhere else. - No team building. There should be company fund to have at least team building activity once a year. - External naive employees are told (again by the CEO because he is the CEO, the HR, management, everything) that they can become internal employees and travel internationally to get them to continue to work at their best. - Very few outsiders know about Redmath. They should be going to university job fairs and interact with people directly. - A few team leads do not realize that employees have families and working here doesn’t mean they’ll switch off their phones and quit their families. When some people especially females take a day off to take of their sick children they are judged harshly.
