...mplaining than finding solutions of your problems then it would be bad anywhere. As far as pay goes, its not the best but considering everything else given by company you'll be better off here than a couple lakhs more somewhere else. Its a product based company so there is a lot of internal innovation that keeps on happening. The office is insanely pretty and I can assure you this pretty office is very hard to find since its also built in 2020.
