Pros

- You'll have nice work & play environment - You'll learn a lot - A lot. - Your work will be appreciated with all glory - If you are technically sound, can see bigger picture quickly, you will soon be taking all decisions on your own, managing probably a module by yourself - Competent salary

Cons

For cons, contradict all pros one by one, like so - - After you are ~1 year experienced, you'll understand there is no work-life balance - Whatever you have learnt is not streamlined - You'd become a jack of all and king of none. - Someone else is now going to get your glory because your module is already delivered and you are not the required hero now - You'll still be handling modules by yourself, working your back off over unpaid weekends - Their paid leaves policy is bad, they cut your pay if you take leave this month, then pay it back in March.

Pros

I began my career as a Quality Assurance Engineer with Webyog. Great work life balance. You don't bring your work home. Very tasty lunch buffet which is on the house. Everyone is approachable very easily so there is no barrier. During my work, i directly interacted with the top leads of teams which have been there for years so I got to learn a lot from them . My team lead was very fair and breaks the myth of a stereotypical team lead . He held the entire team together and we had fair and open discussions over everything. The pay package is very competitive in the market with good hikes. Awesome and latest tech gadgets given to you to work.

Cons

No training given. Direct hands on to the product, which is good in a way but A little training would be great. switching from one department to other would be difficult. Like, if you join in Quality Assurance, switching to development would be slightly difficult.

Pros

1. You are in-charge of the product. You need to do everything that is required to make product successful. 2. Very open to new ideas and implementing them, provided idea makes sense. No BSing 3. There were no Managers for my Team (Worked for 2 teams). It was we (enginners) taking all product decisions based on data. So one was not required to hackle around with non-tech guys to make them understand things. 4. Great learning opportunities, really helpful if you are aiming to have your own start-up in future. One gets to learn all aspects of business and product development at early stage. I believe individuals with around 2 years of serious experience in Webyog can lead a product development team. 5. Get to work with great brains. 6. One might feel initially that salary is low as compared to other start-ups. But, for performers sky is the limit. Pay raises are like 40%-50% in yearly appraisal.

Cons

1. Do not expect more than basic amenities. No cabs and all 2. For those who like to work 9-5, this place is big NO
