them or break them

● Ability to think strategically and contribute to ideation, not just design

● Comfortable working under pressure and managing multiple projects with tight deadlines

Perks:

Apart from the compensation, you will be a part of a crazy culture and people to work with who don’t

believe in working in a monotonous & boring environment and believe in having fun along with work,

an environment where hierarchies exist mostly on paper and you can reach out to anyone at any

point for any sort of help [though don’t forget to treat the person with a chocolate later on ;) ], and

yes, we take office parties very seriously where you don’t have an option to skip it for any reason

whatsoever :P
