Pros

1. Working in new technology 2. Better pay compare to other small companies of Kolkata

Cons

1. Very poor work culture. The CTO behaves like a king and ARC is his pet company. He used to bring his mistress in the office and give her a private room that actually meant for office meetings and always talk about how powerful he is. Sometimes I wonder is it a modern software company of a privately held illegal business by the company CTO. 2. No respect for employees. You never know when you will be insulted (literally insulting) in front of your Juniors, seniors event office security guard. I saw it happening with many senior developers inside the office. 3. You literally need to beg for the variable payments and increments and the delay was so obvious that even HR said it is not event 1.5 years from the last variable payout or increment so she will not start the process. 4. Total tyranny no ethics no culture, not even like regular a service-based company. HR directly asked everyone to give good feedback on glassdoor so that she doesn't face any difficulties to hire people. She also monitors whether the employee gives a minimum of 4 ratings or not. Anyone can observe that the sudden spike in the glassdoor rating from 2.6 to 3.7 within a month. 5. The ARC notice period is 3 months and it asked candidate to join within one month. 6. Working on Saturday is like a normal thing and you can't say no.

Pros

A pulse is all that is needed to qualify to do this work.

Cons

Weekly policy changes were implemented without advance notice and applied retroactively to all staff rather than addressing specific individuals. Dress code memo prohibited tights for all staff in response to specific individuals, further limiting appropriate clothing options in a warehouse environment. YouTube and visual content prohibited a month into tenure, with audio limited to music only, eliminating mental stimulation (e.g. news, podcast, etc.) during repetitive, isolated work in a locked room. A water bottle used every day for a month without issue and was even complimented by one of the supervisors, suddenly became prohibited according to the same supervisor weeks later (there is no exaggeration here, unfortunately). Book tracking quota requirement was introduced despite significant daily downtime — approximately forty-five minutes each morning and after lunch, waiting to be logged in or for books to arrive yet a daily scanning quota was imposed despite these systemic delays. Management is fickle, unorganized, and lacking competence. The work environment is unpredictable, and staff are set up for failure.
