Pros

Pros???? ... Not that I can remember of

Cons

.. No transparency .. No work culture .. Pathetic infrastructure .. Even though the core team is just about 7-10 employees, there are lot of undercurrents and politics and back-biting .. Nil growth plan - only castles in the air .. There is no structured HR process, hence, no definitive rules/regulations .. Salary NEVER comes on time - some times in 3~4 installments!! .. Employees aren't allowed to talk to each other - even during breaks (as a matter of fact, taking a break with a colleague is deemed offensive!!)

Sorry to hear about your feedback . Yes all organisations ( big and small ) , companies and governments go through financial challenges and sometimes payments do get delayed inspite of best efforts . On your other feedback , data is the only truth and yes we have grown , lots of students have got great careers in data science moving . Yes we don't believe in " fun @ work " etc employee engagement practices. The only aspect we like to engage in is data science and we will continue that approach as that enables all employees to have a good work life balance . By doing this we have been able to maintain a strict 9 am - 5pm office timings with no calls post that and regular weekends. We are bootstrapped so we make investments very carefully , so yes we will not invest in frills and great office space etc . What we provide is a set of solid client engagements , focused data science and digital work and a mature work environment

Pros

Exposure to major projects immediately Fast paced environment The employees are talented in atleast one particular area- so a good learning experience It's a good stop over to learn about analytics , running a business and working in a start up environment, but wouldn't advice a long term commitment

Cons

Lots of politics for a small team of 10. Not a transparent and open 'one family' culture that they tout to be. You may end up being thrown under the bus Elaborate HR processes - pick and choose which commitments they should honour based on personal judgements
