Gainsight reviews

1. Most of the reviews are fake on glassdoor, how can everything be perfect in a company? check the reviews, everything seems so perfect. 2. No planning, no process, no clarity on items to be delivered. 3. PMs have no clue what they want out of a feature, no requirements docs, no mocks. 4. Product teams work on the fly with changing requirements. 5. No one knows where the product will be 1/5/10 years down the line(no clue about next 2 months as well). 6. Everything here is about politics, mostly all the people here have ego issues, and the environment in the company encourages that. 7. There are few favourites here, who are the stars and rest of the people are just normal day labours. 8. Policies vary for different people in the organisation. 9. No outing policy or budget.

The people that came in during this growth phase, half of them are literally useless. Still in case of production issues/releases, company relies on handful of people to step up and do the work, then what's the use of hiring so many people. With personal experience the leaders/coaches that India team has, is absolutely of no use. Its more of namesake manager/coach for approvals, they don't understand the product/technology or even take effort to do so. People are also hired based on bias, you can literally group people by previous company they have worked and its like 3-4 companies they come from. Company somehow doesn't believe in firing/getting-rid of under-performers they continue to stick in top level position and bring the team morale down. It would be ok, if they don't contribute at-least other people can work but these people become bottleneck and least cooperative in solving problems. Product Management/Engineering team continues to suffer, Its not like the CTO/CPO don't know about it, but still no actions are taken.Few of them are excellent example of "Leadership by Absence".
