Pros

They have a good selection of tea in the cafeteria. It taught me not to chase money and choose happiness over what I can only describe as the worst experience of my life. Some team members are cool and you'd have a nice time hanging with them during company trips.

Cons

I felt like I have regressed in my career in the time I've spent here. Almost everyone here is miserable and most are hanging on for the money. I am surprised a company as big as this can offer so little. They have a heavy 2 month notice and I count down my days by scratching days of a calendar like a prisoner counting their days to freedom. The tech stack is basic, bad code is allowed through without any review, management does not have any idea of the internal workings of the product or the condition of their employees, they have substandard internal tools that they force you to use so you'll spend a lot of time integrating and not so much coding. Not to mention it's office is situated in Belandur which is a not so great part of Bangalore (strict WFO). One thing to note here is that PhonePe has various different pods, and the one I am in is not the core PhonePe application. I would not wish employment in this company to my worst enemy.
