Bharat Pe - Culture check

So I received a call from a recruiter for a PM role at Bharat Pe. What seems odd to me is that the recruiter messaged me on LinkedIn at midnight and called me today (15th August) to schedule for tomorrow. Is it a red flag? I mean who’d do office work at midnight or on a national holiday. Am I overthinking? How’s the culture in general since all the drama that happened? Insights/Opinions welcomed.

So I cant say about Bharat Pe, but my experience says this overthinking is generally true. The culture might be shit, with too much pressure on monthly targets I have interviewed with many red flag companies, like the interviewer is only available post 10 pm, call from hotel room while vacationing, unavailable during work hours as they are busy with office celebrations, etc. We generally overlook these thinking all of them are similar. Really shouldn’t normalise such things.

Maybe the person just loves his/her job so much that they don’t have a life beyond work.

Is this toxic work culture or I am overthinking

For context: Weekends are off. So just fri WFH. This is a Series B startup. I am not even asking for a leave but WFH for just 1 day. I joined recently. The only thing I did wrong was possibly informing a little too late. Want to get opinion if I am overthinking or this classifies as toxic culture in startups where you are expected to push limits above and beyond regularly and sometimes weekends. ---

Review of Juspay PM role

Hi everyone, can anyone please help how good/bad the PM role at Juspay is? I have been made an offer. I went through a coding round. The money is okay but not sure about learning.

Rant about recruitment in startups

Hello people, We are building a recruitment platform to make hiring easy and fun. Having worked with a recruitment startup, we weren't able to hire for our own team. Hire first, fire faster mode ON tha humara. So, we found this gap mostly in the early stage startups who don't invest in their recruitment properly. So can you guys please share your experiences with landing a job with early stage startups.

That job you applied for, might not exist !!

Corporate catfishing? More companies are posting realistic job listings that don't exist. Companies doing this are trying to trick employees into thinking the company is growing and that they are hiring more workers to alleviate their workload. This is not only manipulative, but immoral. If you want to increase productivity and alleviate stress in your office, start by showing appreciation for your employees and encouraging them. Share some companies you might know that have been doing this.
