Pros

Well, i could not find one.

Cons

Since my joining, my manager had been treating me with utmost disrespect and was making continuous, personal, derogatory, undignified& racist remarks .Finally I was left with no option but to give a formal written complain to the management regarding his behavior. To my surprise instead of taking any concrete action on my complaint, next day management detained me in the meeting room for hours, forcing me to take my complain back. As i refused to do so I was asked to resign forcefully. I was surprised and shocked by the managements behavior. Few weeks later similar incident happened with my friend who was working in IT department. Overall very unprofessional, money minded and short sighted management who believes in only making profits and doesn't care for their employees safety and well being. I will not recommend any self respected person to join this organization.

Pros

Wish there were any! Besides a few employees, they’re all a bunch of over-smart people, ruining other peoples life!

Cons

Cons are endless! These guys interviewed me for the whole day, I came for a different post but since THEY thought my profile was suitable for an upcoming venture, they interviewed me for that instead. Took 10 days or more to give me my offer letter and they still didn’t clearly mention my JD and said the task will start after a month or 2 but I have to join now and start training for the time being. After almost a month of working , when I enquired about my upcoming project, they said I was not selected for it😑 Literally made a fool of me by choosing me a higher profile and then asking me to work as a bloody CUSTOMER CARE EXECUTIVE! Waste of time money and effort and such arrogant HR personals, instead of owning up these guys wanted me to take the fall and said that I had misunderstandings! NEVER EVER EVER WORK FOR FIRSTCRY, they’ll only make their employees cry, bloody FAKE STARTUP! DARP, BRAINBEES AND BUZYBEES- FAKE BLOOD SUCKING COMPANIES!

Pros

1 - This was one of the best startups of Pune. And now its no longer a startup but still has ideology of being startup. Salary is always on time. 2 - You will have freedom to work on anything literally you can say to any senior that you want to work on something new and next day you will be learning or working. Frontend, Backend, Deployment, Cloud and various new technologies you will touch everything. 3 - Though majority of people don't know about the company I am talking about Brainbees Solutions Pvt. Ltd. which is software development arm of Firstcry but the people who about company holds got respect against this company. 4 - Work culture is nice. HR are always helpful and smiling. Great job Manju👍

Cons

1. You will be tempted to the outside glitter of the IT companies because you will be ready to apply for any of the opening in MNCs. I am sure you'll succumb to it as many of the employees leave but then your learning stops there. I would suggest don't go for the money if you can survive for being paid less for couple of years. 2. Company is growing and having investment from SoftBank but the increments are really marginal which is the main reason employee leave as soon as they see better package even though knowing that the FirstCry has environment for growing
