What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Their company culture aligns with ours, where we make sure all our employees have the opportunity to learn and grow professionally. They weren't a typical offshore HR numbers provider; they focused more on employees as individuals first.

Are there any areas for improvement or something The Scalers could have done differently?

Not really. Any issues we had (which were few) were quickly and directly discussed and remedied almost immediately. The greatest concern came from the nature of the job market in Bangalore, which made it difficult to hire people. The Scalers helped us pass this such that we filled our positions in much less than the expected 40-90 days.
