Pros

good insurance, they offer standard market pay

Cons

Workload of 3 people to be done by 1 person. No work-life balance. Career progression opportunities are very limited. Management is set in their old school ways. Product cannot compete with other alternatives/competitors.

Pros

Amazing insurance policy - unlimited claims Central office location at Raffles Place

Cons

Upper management are there for more than 7 years and have a way of doing things that isn't forward looking - alot of whispering and politics play in the upper management, finger pointing is a common play, very hierarchical - you basically tip-toeing around the few top people all the time (who are white people and do not have a good understanding of APAC) Very disrespectful to junior staff - they are treated very poorly and looked down upon, lack of diversity in terms of hiring Team is not well versed in product

Pros

1. Fast pace company. With lesser processes that slow down work. 2. The average age of the company must be in 20s. So work becomes fun. 3. Office Lunch. 4. Not extreme work pressure. Work pressure is fair, at times things need to be done urgently. 5. Well, spend, team outings.

Cons

1. In house promoted management. Almost all teams have directors, who once joined as interns when PubMatic was a startup and made it to high positions in just about 10years. No outside world exposure. Most have frog-of-the-well mentality with no ability to think outside office politics. Expecting managers being interested in your career development will be lofty thoughts. 2. Don't be surprised to see a 6-7 yrs experienced person as manager. Crappy team vision is inevitable. 3. HR is frugal. With sudden awful policies like - -> not celebrating birthdays of people on notice period. Save money on gift cards. -> Eat away peoples tenure award money, just because they are on notice period. (mind you these rules were not there when tenure awards or Birthday celebration policies were declared.)
