Hehe - I got this email update and was surprised to see some negative post activity after one year! Disclaimer: I joined Krawler two years ago. Here's my experience:
Good things:
* Techie people, good solid strong technology. Not a web startup, they are into enterprise applications (go figure).
* IITians as your bosses who work 18hrs a day and make you work hard no matter what.
* I was weak in Oops concepts - but having worked here I can beat any you infosys shits out there hands down.
* My friends in TCS asked me if I could merge queries and inner-join tables as he having worked there for a year still has no idea how to. He works in a team of 8, codes in HTML and basically has zilch knowledge on systems. I pity him. I own a product here.
* I have worked on java, js, gwt, nGinx, Jetty, Tomcat - for you who have no clue, go google. I don't know of any single soul in my network who can administor nGinx so I consider that a big deal - so **** you if you work on IIS.
Bad things:
* The climate is tough.
* Your bosses are 27yr old who know every trick you can fake. So no faking
you actually gotta code
* People get fired routinely if they can't code. Just last week two were asked to look for another job because they couldnt perform at all. So its kinda perform or perish here. That ofcourse is both good and bad - only real techies survive. This keeps me on toes but frankly make me a little nervous as well. But a lot many don't take this pressure positively. For instance, I suspect the one post above has been made by a guy fired recently.
and
* IITians as your bosses who work 18hrs a day and make you work hard no matter what. hehe - this is a real negative for any of you lazy bums
(hope google doesn't index this!!)
Yaar pata nahin...mere digitforum main...pahle se hi...T159 se login tha.....Lekin mujhe poochnaa hai ki Krawler network jaisi Company theek hoti hain ki nahin........Kyunki mera bhi campus Placement start hone wala hain.......thats y asking...ne 1 have answer to plz bata do....aur agar aapka koi dost hai wahaan to unse pooch kar bata do....Plz.....
Agar time pass karna hai: INFOSYS, TCS, WIPRO, PERSISTENT. Koi bhi big company main total time pass hoga aur acchi salary milegi
Agar Techie ho and career types banana hai: Krawler
or koi bhi 100-150 employees ka startup with preferebly a product company ho (and not services) Pooch lo kisme kaam milega - and then join karo. But kaam bahut milega and karna pardega. This experience is priceless if you seek real knowledge but its upto you. Krawler main ab shayad bond hai because bando ki fat leti hai kaam dekh kar
MBA karna hai: CAT prepare karo
Lekin yaar pata nahin ye Choti product based Company kab band ho jaye.....Aur inmain kuch facilities bhi nahin hoti....(Food ,transport etc)....to log in companiyon main kyun aaen?
Tichyamari...food transport..tula kae pahije ? Tula tya foodacha kai ghene dene ? Ch*tiya tereko kaam se matlab hai ya food transport se ? Saale abhi is umar main tereko yeh sab chahiye to baad main kya karega ?
Tere jaise ch*tiya techies ki wajah se techies ka naam kharab hota hai...I'm shocked you're looking for these superficial ghatia things. Kya IIT se ho ? Agar nahi to thorda hard work kar lo. Any way Infosys apply kar...Krawler main teri g*aad maar lie jayegi
