Pros

-Its all about looks here. Everything in the company is shiny and bright. -Perks used to be very good but most of them have been removed

Cons

-Almost no growth potential. -Impossible to get into management unless you are blessed by folks who have been there for over 20 years. -No work life balance. You will have to take support calls after midnight, about 2-3 times a week. -The skills you acquire here are of very little use outside. -Join only if you are very political and want to work there more than 2 decades.
