Slice
Was doing some research and again stumbled upon Slice’s glass door. Is this company really that bad or is it some kind of revenge against the company by few angry employees? I haven’t seen any companies review this bad who names their CEO, COO and acting CTO in every other reviews. A thread below to share your views. Let’s be honest here!
Grapevine or Salcringvine?
Just a normal observation! I loved the concept of Grapevine but don’t you guys think every other thread is like: a) I am getting Xx , how many years it is gonna take to reach YY? b) Why x is getting paid y with Z yoE while I am being paid c with d YoE? c) How many of you paying xx tax? d) How many of you spending Xx /month? e) How much salary a SDE3/PM1/PM2/EM1/XXXX should ask for? For Ffs , why don’t I get to see questions like: a) How did you learn execution in the Product management during the initial years? b) What is the basic difference between Webhook and polling? c) Why and when should one use JWT? d) what are some of the problems that are unsolved and can be unriddled using Generative AI? e) Criticize moron founders who are still copying apps in 2024 like literally stealing UI ( Check the Sasta Duolingo from Gaurav Munjal, bhai Matlab bas colour change kar diya and copied Duo lingo ka interface) f) Why checkout finance is shit product and destined to fail? g) What exactly happened with Slice? h) What do we use Kafka for? I) What is platform economy? J)What is aggregation theory concept and how Internet completely subverted that paradigm? k) What are Kubernetes? l) what are some good documentary and channels to watch/follow if you are in tech space? M) What exactly happened at FTx?( I am sure 99% of you guys don’t) I can go on and on and on and on….. ….,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Rant is over, 🙏 Please put an end to stupid salary related polls and threads.
What’s Pazcare now?
In the last 2-3 years have been witnessing a tremendous influx in the credit card (new gen) market with One Card, Uni, Slice to name a few. The credit card market is pretty synonymous to insurance market in India with single digit penetration levels and predominantly governed by metros and Tier-1 cities. Asking experts on how these new gen card players are planning to survive without any kind of innovation
