Pros

- Art team has a good amount of work to do. That would be recommendation here for people looking out for job in art. - US and China counterparts are far better than India

Cons

Below all is for Mumbai office • HR - The major goal is to spread the wrong news and spread a chinese whisper. - Raise any concern to HR, it back fires on you. They do not focus on solving the employees issues/concerns - Entire HR team is arrogant, irresponsible, negative attitude. • Management / Managers - They also want you to work over weekends: no work life balance ( I have worked in startups but this is too much) - If you deny or put forth you concern of not working over weekends, you would threatened of not receiving the salary. - Main aim is politics. - They do not stand by what they say even if it’s in email. - Managers play favoritism. • Common cons - Everyone wants to be a the top level no respect between peers. - Finance was great when it was handled by a single person. - Salary isn’t on time. - Your work is not valued. - No skill enhancement. - No career growth NOTE: MOST OF THE POSITIVE COMMENTS THAT YOU SEE/READ IN COMMENTS IS FROM INTERNAL TEAM TO SHOW POSITIVE SIDE (trust me on this) and its all fake. ADVICE: Think, rethink and repeat thinking before you join the organization.

Pros

Square Panda is fast-paced and you never get stuck doing the same thing twice. I've learned more at this job working with this team than any other job I've held. The literacy-based vision for the company is genuine and the folks working for Square Panda are passionate about actually making a difference in the world. The company is at a stage where if things go well for it, you could stand to gain a lot, equity wise. The company hires very smart people who actually take time to explain things to you if you want to learn - something I highly admire.

Cons

In true startup fashion, there are growing pains and sometimes issues working together as a team globally. We oftentimes take on more than we can chew for projects because we don't have the staff to support it - but we somehow manage to always get it done.
