Remember that browser called "Puffin browser" which was kinda famous in mid 2010's and is now dead ever since the developers had the brilliant idea of ​​making their browser pay-to-use.

Many people still use this browser despite better alternatives, and many complain in the feedback about it. However, it turns out that the developers of the company "CloudMosa Inc." take user reviews on the app store very personally. These developers respond rudely and arrogantly to users who complain about the subscription, the app's performance, and things unrelated to the app (like nonsensical comments). They reply their reviewers with common things like "Unwanted user like you (the reviewer)" "The cancer of society" or they insult them by calling them "cheaters", "parasites", "pirates" or "liars" They don't offer you any help, they just tell you to get lost and say "Thanks for uninstalling Puffin",And they have the nerve to insult those who simply say nonsense unrelated to the app calling them "idiots", no matter how absurd and nonsensical is the comment doesn't give them the right to insult users.

This company is very unprofessional and rude when reply their feedback and they should get better when dealing with bad reviews without using insults, a friendly tip if you plan to work at a corporation or company, If you can't handle with critism, then do not work at the feedback section!

The only good thing is that this company doesn't use bots to answer reviews and uses real people, you can find a lot of replies from the developers that are very rude and even harsh. If you're interested in reading them, go to your app store and search for "Puffin Browser." You'll find a lot of stuff there. I took some screenshots so you can get an idea of ​​the unprofessional comments they reply to.

So to recap, G2 is apparently:

1. A scam
2. Corrupt
3. Lawsuit-worthy

…but also important enough to quietly come back to four months later under a different name 💀

Hello everyone, so you probably got the idea from the title itself.

I joined this company around 3 months ago and already got introduced to office politics way too early 😭. My manager clearly shows favoritism towards one or two employees, especially one girl. She gets all the important updates, feedback, appreciation, and leaves without much questioning.

Meanwhile, I’ve never taken a single leave since joining, but when I finally asked for leave because of exams, he made comments like, “You look very happy today because you got the leaves.” 😭 Like… what was I supposed to do, cry?

I’ll honestly admit that I’m average at verbal English communication. I know what I want to say, but sometimes I struggle to articulate it properly. I’m working on it, but because of that they assume I’m not capable enough.

Recently, I got the chance to lead a project discussion in front of the client on a Teams call, and right before I was about to speak, one of my manager’s favourites interrupted and said, “I think she has some queries related to the project, she forgot to ask.” That completely messed up my confidence and I got nervous during the session.

Most of the time I just do my work, take my breaks, and go home without caring much about these people. But lately it’s getting too much and it’s genuinely bothering me.

How do you guys deal with managers and coworkers like this? Any advice would really help.
