Pros

1. Timely salary 2. Free Breakfast & Lunch 3. Cabs 4. Good CEOs 5. Helping crowd - Technical and HR 6. No leaves problem

Cons

1. Estimations of projects is not fair w.r.t timelines and so ultimately pressure builds on developers to accomplish the task in less time . Almost all projects , be of any kind and difficulty level , is expected to be completed in 2 to 2.5 months. "Bugs" you owe them , fix on your own time . 2. Delivery side is getting domineering day by day . The real players , the developers , are given least respect . 3. No matter how much good you are doing, how much effort you are putting , in your Flash reviews you are made to feel that you are the only culprit if the project deadlines are not meeting. No one care on the flaws that has been made while estimating the project. 4.Appraisals are not good 5.work life balance gets disturbed as you are expected to stretch for the timely delivery

Pros

Appster is an amazing company which is in the early stages of it's international plan for world domination. We only hire the most amazing people in their respected fields which allows us to take pride in what we execute. We have an extremely transparent work environment with a flat organisational structure. Our success to date is largely due to our training and recruitment models which increases productivity by alleviating micromanagement. We get to work in an environment which is always changing and adapting to the current trends which creates the ability to really utilize creativity. If you are lucky enough to have the opportunity to work at Appster I STRONGLY suggest drop everything and do whatever is in your power to lock in a position. This is an amazing opportunity I have been lucky enough to receive and I know that this will be my last stop before retirement!!! Appster is the future so show us what you can do to help lock in a spot to help change the world!!!

Cons

I have to break it to people in some cases that their idea isn't feasible, original or potentially viral. This is the only thing about the job which I don't like however people appreciate the honesty so it really isn't as issue at all and is a great place to be as a business.
