Feedback on culture at Ola Electric

I got an offer from Ola Electric for a Senior Engineering role in Backend dev. Pay is good and team looks interesting too. But I am very apprehensive about their culture. Their glassdoor reviews are horrible and the recent interview in YS Bhavish gave was cringe max. I am a hard working guy, will do solid 8-10hrs 5 days a week. But it looks like that won’t be enough. One might be made to work late nights and weekends routinely from what I heard. And Bhavish saying he doesn’t believe in weekends has made me a lot more anxious.

My current company is going through financial troubles. I will definitely have to move. I will get some other role though if I wait for a few weeks.

Could someone working at Ola or with recent experience advise me here.

High attrition. It runs on bhavishs whims. You wont be getting your 5 days for sure. You can always jump ship for now and move to something better later

Join ola so that you will value every other company out there.

Bhavish has hired people like him in leadership who don't care of you, just need money and valuation

A friend who joined from tier 1 MBA wants to leave within 1 month of joining because the boss calls on Saturday if you leave early 😂
