From day 1, you will be expected to learn about the product and work. You will be assigned a mentor who will be guiding you and helping you along the way.
Any problems called out are immediately looked into and resolved with priority
Great work life balance and good environment to learn. Employee caring company.
Great care for the employees. Perks are nice. Overall company vision is good.
Freshworks gives you an opportunity to explore other roles. I've seen people without an MBA becoming an HR. Sales Rep turned into a Product manager. QA person becomes a software developer. All you need is passion, dedication and hard work.
