Great Place to work

Great Place to work- Grapevine

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Does anyone else feels that whichever company gets the certification of "great place to work" actually turns out to be a shitty toxic place? 

The irony of this!! The places which didn't bother about such certifications were so much better in their policies and employee first culture. No fucks given to any external validation.. just casually going about their business and letting the employees become their ambassador for postive word of mouth.

Saw a great place to work org sending a delivery guy to deliver door to door at 9.00 pm 
It was raining bad in that area here in Bangalore so I asked “no raincoat?” 
Guy says - no sir.. my company doesn’t give.
my friends - only Zomato and Swiggy have got.
Baaki.. ko .. Farak nai padta..

So I got to ask .. Kya karoge itna shareholder return deke, itna profit banake? Ki ek raincoat bhi nai de sakte.

Branding to wo aadmi kar Gaya Zomato aur Swiggy ka Jo Wo Khud bhi nai kar paaye.

Great place to work 🤬

The entire Great Place to Work is a scam, right? One of those 'you pay, you claim' memberships. Can someone enlighten me?

Everybody has the batch of GPTW but when you get inside you understand how shity the culture really is. The Indian companies are manipulating the survey and getting this batch easily. No credibility for the batch.

The biggest scam in the 21st Century is the "Great Place to Work" batch.

Product Manager

Housing.com (REA India) ranked 3rd in the GPTW survey this year. They provide several awesome perks like, laying off without any notice, fucking their reviews just so that they could justify the lay offs, and threatening actions if anything came out on social media. 

10-15% of the whole tech team was laid off (mostly freshers) apparently on the basis of low performance.  It was all carried out by the higher management, not even the managers had any clue about the lay off happening. 

The performance rating was rigged by the higher management who had no interaction with the tech people. They had this awesome idea of getting reviewed by people who we had never interacted with. Managers were merely bystanders who had no say in the performance review whatsoever. 


PS: A note for the management -->
Housing.com would be an employee friendly company only if you guys would give two fucks about employees, instead of Caring so much about the GPTW ranking like conducting hands on sessions and literally forcing people to put in good rating.

Anyone heard of Pagarbook and it's culture? 
How is the team and overall culture

Pagarbook, any ideas?

Layoffs started in April which are still continuing. CEO says in all hands that reason for many people leaving Yubi is not because of cost cutting, also says they are going ahead with hikes & bonuses.  On last day of June payout when hikes/bonuses were expected HR announces that hike/bonuses will come in July payout. Diplomatically they just told that some people will get 0 hikes/bonuses. They want project to Go-live in 2 months but can't complete hike/bonus process in 2 months ?

Very high chance that they will give zero hikes/bonus to all employees this year.  HR recently started this shoot out thing where names of good performing employees is called out. What for ? Are they giving any benefits to employees? Vacation leaves are reduced. CEO lies openly.

 They just  seem to be making fool of employees.

Yubi fooling employees ?

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

I joined Zomato for a work life balance as I was from the Finance industry and used to work 6-6.5 days a week for 10-11 hours a day. I'm enjoying my time here but it's an individual role in sales and I'm provided 8 LPA for Tier 2 city. My peers are getting a little higher but my colleagues from the previous industry are making 12 LPA on average. I don't want to go back to finance, plus I want to engage in a team leading role. Can anyone suggest?

What after Zomato?

One of the most toxic workplace I know just got awarded with the “grrr place to work” award (you know which award I’m talking about) 

Doesn’t make any sense whatsoever looking at attrition numbers and performance issues in the organisation.

We need better way to identify companies with good culture as these awards are no longer reliable

Grrr place to work is a farce !?

I’ll go first, I’m a dev and have an unlimited hardware budget to buy any device/accessories that I can justify for my work 😎

What are some cool perks of your job/role?

I have for the past couple of months gone through really pathetic and exploitative behaviour of the Indian companies (especially startups). 

> They ask to do extensive assignments, wasting a lot of time, just because they have an upper hand
> Then they completely ghost candidates with no response (most times) / delayed response

This is really pathetic. Lack of empathy just shows how immature and under-developed you are. If you ask someone to invest their time, you have the responsibility of timely and proper communication.

ALMOST ALL STARTUP HIRING MANAGERS AND HR TEAMS NEED TO UNDERSTAND THIS.
