Pros

1. Good place to work for if you are into following skill set: -BA -Testing -HR -Manager -Senior Management -Contract Employees -Murex related technology -Freshers (Freshers are treated as angel's here. You will enjoy like anything) 2. Good package 3. Small company, so growth will be good. 4. Lots of parties, if you like to party 5. Fruits will be served every day 6. Cab/Laptop/Company Sim/Car Loan/House Loan facility 7. Good infrastructure

Cons

1. If you are out of a [Billable] position, then you will be thrown out of the company. 2. Firing rate is quite high compared to any other company [As this is a small company, rate of firing is high] 3. They treat employees as contract resources and play with their career. If you want to join as a contract employee then its a best place to work for. 4. Not many technology projects. As of now there is only one .Net project & very less number of java projects. All other projects are related to business consulting / management consulting/ murex, so not a good place for .Net/java people. 5. Lots of politics 6. In-competent managers 7. No Technical training's 8. No in-house tools means you need to install all free evaluation version of software. Company has no vision to build technology in-house tools instead spends lot of money into partying. 9. There is no strategy to grow. Its like as and when you get a new project hire people, and when project completes, if there are no other place to fill the resources fire them. This is the only strategy / vision. I am a technology resource, so my reviews are based on personal view and may not match with skill set mentioned in Pros. as all the above points in Cons may not be applicable for them.

Pros

Varied client work — Different clients and project types, which keeps things interesting. Real project mobility — You can move between projects when you advocate for yourself (within reason). Approachable leadership — Senior leaders are open to conversations if you reach out. Good development resources — Plenty of training and growth opportunities if you take advantage of them. Strong teams — Colleagues are smart, capable, and great to work with. Entrepreneurial environment — New ideas are encouraged, and there’s room to take initiative.

Cons

Long hours vary by project — Like most any professional job, some engagements require extended hours for prolonged periods, but work–life balance really depends on the client and team. Additional internal responsibilities — Depending on level, there can be a significant amount of firm‑support work outside of client delivery. Domain alignment not guaranteed — You may not always be staffed on projects that match your domain expertise. Coaching alignment constraints — Coaching relationships are tied to domain, which limits flexibility in choosing formal mentors. Long engagements (sometimes) — Some projects run for long durations or through multiple extensions. It can provides stability but may reduce variety in client and project experience depending on what you’re looking for.
