Pros

- Young team, nice people except the higher management - I started using bullet points hoping that there would be more to write here

Cons

- Terrible management - The CEO is very rude, insulting and almost humiliates you everyday. Has crazy expectations generally. You get to work closely with him, but he really doesn't listen to you, so what's the point? He wants employees from big institutions and companies to join Promolta and then treats them like dirt. - Unethical Eg: Made me hire a few candidates who were fired within a week of joining, we co-hosted and interview and he asked such sexist interview questions that made me cringe and apologise to the candidate. (Note one of the interview reviews which says "you get the job if you don't plan to get married in the next year") You realize he really needs help with the management. - Risk of getting fired (I was too. One of the hundreds that got fired in the year. This wouldn't be surprising for a startup but for a small company of 10 people, the attrition rate is crazy) - Expecting crazy work from you from the first day (No exaggeration here) with NO training. - The cofounder is relatively nicer, but you realize she has no say in any of the company decisions. - If you don't come on weekends to the office with a smile, they assume you are not a "hustler" (Yes, sometimes Sundays too)

Pros

Promolta is more than just a place to work; it's an environment that fosters a strong work ethic and encourages continuous personal and professional growth. The emphasis on "learn today, not tomorrow" creates a dynamic atmosphere where individuals are empowered to take initiative, embrace challenges, and constantly strive for improvement.

Cons

A workplace that is not meant for the feint hearted. Promolta cultivates a highly skilled workforce that is well-equipped to tackle the ever-evolving market demands.

Pros

I learned way more by working here than I did at any other company. Vlad is the best teacher. He taught me the basics and showed me things I never knew. He will also push you hard, so you can get better faster.

Cons

No cons for me! I learned a lot here and I am very grateful.
