ZS has been a nightmare for me. I left the company couple of months ago. My stress was high. I would never recommend anyone to join ZS. They hire people and then CO / or PIP them without giving a proper chance to learn. But, I am in a happy space now- personally and professionally.

To those who are in PIP/ or about to get into PIP/ or got COed/ or about to be COed, remember life is more than ZS. Zs don’t define your talent or skill sets. You are much better without ZS. Ocean is vast outside ZS.

It took me one year to bring back my life at a normal pace after leaving ZS. Nobody deserves to be in ZS. I suggest everyone not to stay in ZS for more than 2years. You will start getting diseases/anxiety issues.

You are lucky honestly. There are teams where managers want you to work overnight and expect you to be in office at 10. If you come late they will call you in their room and have a session . Managers and above don't have any empathy.
