Oh, absolutely! At this point, finding an employee at Paytm who would say it's a good company is like finding a unicorn in your backyard. If you still want to join, then congratulations! You've won a free consultation with a top psychiatrist. You’re going to need it.

Oh, Paytm! The utopia of modern employment! Let's talk about the wonders: 1. **Salary Raise / Promotion**: Ever dreamt of a zero-percent hike? Welcome to Paytm! Promotions are mythical creatures here. 2. **Full of Politics**: If you love a good political drama, look no further. Our office could give "House of Cards" a run for its money. 3. **Career Growth**: Imagine a tree that never grows. That's your career at Paytm. 4. **Overtime Work**: Ever wished to live at your workplace? Your wish is our command! Overtime is our middle name. 5. **Work Culture**: We redefine 'third-class.' Even startups laugh at our work culture. 6. **Job Security**: Job security? Ha! It’s so secure, it’s practically non-existent. 7. **Codebase Level**: Remember your college projects? Yeah, they were masterpieces compared to our codebase. So, when do you start?...Read More

Work life balance and salary hike on joining is much better as per other company standards.

Dislikes

Job security: As such not available, in every town hall meeting, VSS will ensure nothing to be worried orbit just after 2 weeks, silent layoffs would start every year in multiple rounds.

Sustaining 1 year is easy, but from next year onwards, all team members would be worried for the list. Appraisal: Average appraisal would not even beat Indian Govt. inflation %age. If luck would get somewhere around 8-15%. In my team, many received appraisal ranging from 2-5%.
