Got a offer - but a red flag?

A 2 yrs old small B2C startup has put the following conditions along with offer letter to my friend: 1. 6 months probation period. 2. 7 days notice period during probation. 3. 7 leaves during probation. 4. ESOPs will be given after 3 months of performance evaluation. 5. No WFH (might get on situation basis), might need to work on Saturdays as well if required. there are about 15 tech team members, they are in the growth phase right now. are these conditions normal for a small startup? what else does he need to find before joining?

So I recently joined a early stage startup as a founders office product intern, Basic Insights My age - 25 Industry - XR Stipend - 20k Travel time - 2 hours up and down Location - Banglore I rqstd founder for hybrid work as I don't see my real-time need in the office, Founder is quite rigid on the office point and wants me to be present in office no matter what and also on some other things. I kind of see it as a red flag, what's would you suggest can this turn to a full time offering or just a internship and then ask me to leave the org. Note - not comprising on my work by any means.

My background: 2024 grad, intern at an startup in Bengaluru, internship extended for 3 months recession is the reason told, no chance of fte. Now, getting an offer from a startup. Team of 15-16 people. Pre seed stage startup. Will be building product from scratch. Lots of learning. Offering decent hike and since i m part of first team...getting small equity too. Should I join this offer? I m confused. But also thinking...it is risky but a lot to learn and growth potential is v high. Tell what do u guys think??

I interviewed for a company called tooljet, cleared all the rounds. During the negotiation with HR, in the later stages of negotiation I had asked few questions like 1. Is there any Esops(no) 2. Appraisal cycle(it's a startup, depends on performance) 3. Promotion possibility(it's a startup so depends on the performance) 4. Performance bonus(it's a startup depends on performance) no range given 5. Medical insurance ( it's a startup so no) 6. Probation period(3 months) 7. Leave policy(21 days yearly, can't take more than 3 days consecutively) the head of product and tech lead said it will be unlimited 8. Public holidays(national holidays yes + 1 day for diwali) so 5-6 days I'm assuming 9. Work from home expenses if any?(no) 10. Working hours(10-7, it's a startup so you might have to work long hours) 11. Working days( 5 days) 12. Notice period( 1 month) 13. Joining date(tomorrow) lol, I asked her to defer it by a week 1st call was regarding my expectations ( she said she will give me 30-35% increment on previous) 2nd call was about her offer(gave me 23%) 3rd call was regarding all these questions 4th call I accepted asked her to defer it by a week 5th call she said no, saying you asked a lot of questions, we want someone who can focus on the growth of our startup and not worry about these things. I never got a chance to negotiate, she never accepted or even bothered to listen to any of my requests. I asked her to increase it by 30% and she didn't even bother to listen and refused it. Her entire attitude was , take it or leave it. She said she can't negotiate each and every day,and I barely got a chance to even negotiate. Did I say anything wrong or is the HR stupid?

I recently joined an early age startup but that place was nothing what they told it’d be. So I decided to quit in 2 weeks. I now have an offer from a listed organisation and I am joining on Thursday. However, I haven’t told them about the last 15 days I spent at this startup and have submitted relieving of the last 2 orgs I worked with for 2 yrs each. Can there be a problem later?

I recently got offer from an early stage startup in banglore. They raised a total funding of $5.19M over 2 rounds. My offer is 13 LPA + 1 lakh retention bonus 5k per month for commute and health insurance I have past experience of 2 years working with 2 startups and building apps from scratch for them. Honestly I'm really confused about this offer, it is for sure better than my previous offer but I'm not feeling satisfied. Any suggestions guys?

I am currently doing an SDE Internship in one of the startups in gurugram. Initially I was given a 6 month intern + full time offer, all went well, but in the last month this company is revoking full time offers of some interns and extending the intern offer to 3-4 months. What should I do in this case ? I am literally scared right now?

Hey Folks, I hope you all are doing extremely well. Wanna get some idea about market pay and the hike I’m getting in a e-commerce company. Worked as a DevOps/Software Engineer for 5 yrs and CCTC is around 30-32 LPA. New company is ready to offer around 42. Is it good offer or should I check for more companies? I know some startup’s are paying like anything and this offer seems to be trivial for 5 yrs experience, but just wanted to know if I should be pursuing this offer or not? Thanks in advance folks, Have fun! 🤩

Hi, I have been offered a PM role at Paytm. My overall experience is 6 yrs with >2 yrs in Product. The CTC they are offering is 40 LPA which is a 30% hike. In current company culture and wlb is good. If anyone can suggest, Is it lower/higher than market standards and how's the culture and wlb in Paytm Product team?

I got an offer from a big international bank in Mumbai. The project is in data analysis/engineering, which is something I have not worked in earlier. Another caveat is that I will be on a staffing company’s payroll and not on the bank’s. I am apprehensive about the 3rd party payroll thing. Is that something to worry about?
