Colleagues were good and helpful. Good if you join as intern. If you are having 1+ years of experience do not join. You'll not have anything new to learn. You'll regret joining this.

Dislikes

Too mich micromanagement, appraisals are pathetic. Some seniors are very toxic. Salary is very less now. Do not join if you have 1+ year of experience as there is nothing to learn in this company. No personal growth, the company does not have vision.. they don't know where they are leading to..

I used to appreciate the work culture and the people here at GeeksforGeeks. It was a place where teamwork and growth thrived, and we looked forward to events like Fun Fridays that brought everyone together. However, things have drastically changed. Many of my colleagues have been laid off, and now, the environment feels tense and uncertain. Job security is a major concern, and what was once a collaborative atmosphere has turned toxic. Ironically, Fun Fridays now seems to be exclusive to the top management (4 people), while every week, at least 4-5 employees are getting surprised layoff....Read More

Dislikes

I literally don't know what to add and what to leave out, but here are few key points: - No Mental Peace: The stress here is overwhelming, with zero work-life balance. - Micromanagement: Everything is monitored, even restroom breaks and sitting time. - Cost Cutting: Basics like coffee machines and tissues get removed often. - Job Insecurity: Salary hikes are rare, and people are just trying to hold onto their jobs. - Team Shuffling: Teams are frequently changed, and layoffs happen under the guise of performance issues. - No WFH: Work from home is no longer an option, expect 10 WFH in a year, because they have mentioned a flexible WFH policy in offer letters. - Excessive Control: Restricted access to the game room, hidden pool sticks, and removed balcony chairs - like being back in school. - No Fun Events: No Fun Fridays, annual parties, or celebrations like Diwali this year. Instead of improving the business or culture, it feels like they're focused on controlling employees....Read More

Liking there nothing to like in geeks for geeks. I’ve had a horrible experience working with them.They’re very unprofessional.HR of this company is not HR’S they’re firing machines.They have fired 100s of people since January to till date without any prior notice.This happens with me also last Friday they announced there are some UPS installations happening in the entire floor so everyone will working for home on Friday. I was not aware that in mid of afternoon they’ll revoke my access to my mail id without any discussion also they have that much of audacity. I was shattered at that time I don’t how to react what to do??? Still i coping with this trauma trying to get out of pain and applying for company. I hope they’ll get what they deserve....Read More

I feel compelled to share my experience at GeeksforGeeks to alert potential employees about the challenges i faced. During my time there, I encountered an extremely unprofessional atmosphere with a concerning lack of regard for employment welfare.There was a prevalent culture of strict micromanagement and no appreciation for the hard work pit in by team members. Unfortunately, this environment did not foster growth or support for career development. Employees were not adequately rewarded for their efforts, and there was a notable absence of initiatives aimed at promoting a healthy work-life balance. My intention in sharing this is not to disparage, but rather to provide transparency for those considering opportunities at GeeksforGeeks.It’s crucial to carefully evaluate workplace culture and values before committing to a role....Read More

I didn't like anything for gfg.

Dislikes

There is too much politics in this company. Especially in the sales department, No one lets you move forward. There will be unnecessary gossip about you, there will be gossip about your personal life because the manager here is so free. They make fake promises to do this or that but do nothing. There is just zero in the name of learning. Team grows only where managers are good.

No knowledgeable manager. Focus on quantity and not quality, hell lot of micromanagement, no job security as they lay-off anyone anytime. The company basically runs bcz of interns and any full time employee having a decent salary is in danger of layoff. 6 mom the sofa probation period and minimum 45 Days of notice period. Toxic work culture.
