Employees at OYO appreciate the excellent teamwork and supportive colleagues, along with a comfortable and creative work environment filled with young, talented individuals. The flexible working hours and remote work options allow for good work-life balance and independent time management. Competitive salaries and attractive benefits, including commissions and bonuses, are well-regarded. Additionally, employees value the learning opportunities in marketing, operations, hospitality, and the start-up ecosystem, which contribute to career development.
However, there are some potential challenges, such as the fast-paced environment that often involves overtime and extended working hours. As a start-up, OYO experiences frequent policy changes that require quick adaptation. Centralised decision-making can lead to longer resolution times when escalation to head office or India is needed. Working with property owners may present challenges as some partners navigate digital transformation or have brand concerns. Employees also note that targets can be ambitious, and management processes could benefit from greater consistency in direction and evaluation.
