Recently, I gave interviews at Flipkart for SDE-1 and was informed by the recruiter that I am selected. I have 1+ yrs of experience. The compensation negotiation is still pending. How is the WLB and the culture of the teams at Flipkart? And do we need to work from Mon to Sat or Mon to Fri?

    Nothing much just learning and programming. Can cook sometimes. Mostly anxious and stressed out.

    From my experience in UAR org (at least in my team) wlb is quite good. We strictly follow no meetings friday and avoid long meetings after lunch hours unless it's for sprint planning or retro.
    My day starts at 10:30am and by 6:30pm I'm usually free. Our manager actively encourages us to explore new concepts, optimisations to existing workflows, identify and solve for tech debts and bad customer exp among many things. In my team we actively motivate each other to ensure that we write clean code and build stuff in a sustainable manner which will require minimal maintenance in the future. As a result of this, on-call is very trivial as we usually don't face many issues.

    What grinds my gears, however is the central infra that is there. The CI/CD platform is a big source of frustration due to added unnecessary complications. Apart from that, frequent moratoriums due to various sales throughout the year greatly reduces productivity around the OND quarter as good portions of Sept, oct and Nov are locked down for most services and deployments.

      OP
      Thanks! What is the tech stack in the UAR team? Are we allowed to choose a team after joining or the team is already decided for new joinees?
