OYO is NOT a tech-driven company, Tech org here is IT support for business
Pros
1. 'Business leaders' at OYO are great and inspiring. . 2. Company will definitely do good in coming times, might become a unicorn in 1-2 years. . 3. Competetive compensation ( but all your compensation will come in form of salary, Insurance/PF/Stocks are bare minimal, you even have to pay for parking and lunch ).
Cons
1. Tech team do not get enough time or independence to provide creative tech-enabled solutions for business problems. You will not get to learn much about technology as you will be dealing with overwhelming business requests on same technology and a defunct tech management most of the times. . 2. Some EMs do a lot of micro-management. The HR here is just for hiring new people. . 3. The new CTO is smart, but smug and lacks a strong personality. He has surrounded himself with sycophants and only interacts with employees 1-2 levels below him. Compares everything to how 'Amajon' does things. While his vision is big, I never found him inspiring. . 4. Corporate office is far and outside Gurgaon. It is now so crowded, you become part of other teams' meetings even if you do not want to. There is serious space crunch, I had to go out to take some personal calls. There is NO personal space at the office. Forget any fun activities for a respite here. . 5. Very rare lunches/outings(once a year maybe).
