Pros

1. Being one of the initial members of tech team in Swiggy, saw a growth which is hard to find and enjoy somewhere else 2. Get to work on good projects with equal responsibilities between everyone 3. Great interaction with upper management, product team and CEO 4. DOT is the best coder, programmer and software engineer I've seen in my entire life. Highly technical and have fixed issues within minutes especially during crunch situations. Good to have him around for all the guidance we need 5. Free T-shirts with great designs. WOW!

Cons

1. Not as good as initial days 2. Management is playing game of thrones 3. Selfish management does not care about employees at all 4. Low salaries 5. Less outings 6. Worst work life balance, they can ask you to work every other weekend and they do 7. Nothing new and exciting 8. Herd mentality with upper tech management as herd leaders 9. And upper tech management is not so smart. Lacks ex

Pros

1. Challenging problems to solve. 2. You get to learn a lot of different technologies. 3. You learn to take ownership of a big scale project impacting millions of users.

Cons

1. There is no work life balance. Even if you are on leave, the manager will shamelessly point to others that they can call you since you are the only POC of a particular service. 2. No regard for employees mental health. Your manager is not your manager, he is a Swiggy's bouncer assigned to you to make sure you work like a donkey and nothing less. 3. You spend half your day in context switching. If a team has 8 people, they will literally be working on 5-7 projects at a time. Also, because of the overlap of ownership, you will be working on something and will immediately be called upon to look at a production issue, which by nature takes a higher priority than the work you had at hand. This ensures that you can get little to no software development done during office hours and have to burn the midnight oil. 4. Heavily underemployed. For God's sake, if you don't have enough employees, don't take up so many projects.
