Pros

None that i can think of

Cons

Almost all units have same work culture and everyone is overloaded which boils down to work on weekends. Outdated Product management who has no clue on whats happening in industry and keeps on bluffing. Legacy architects whose superficial understanding of technologies has resulted in major design goof ups , the consequences of which are faced by developers who have to slog many day and nights to correct the wrongdoings. No proper leaders most of them are micro managers. These MBS unit legacy product managers/VP's are outdated and have no clue how other companies are functioning.They have their own draconian style of functioning which involves terrorizing subordinates. The companies relies too much on freshers and is consequently bearing the brunt of it who have produced products whose quality is not so good ,which in turn leads to lot of frustration. Have seen many experienced people leave and they just replace them with freshers. No proper hikes.. In the name of so called learning people are dumped with huge activities.This in turn leads not learning anything as people multitask across activities gaining only very superficial knowledge. Plans are changed on whims and fancies of leaders You have to clock minimum 9 hours and that is tracked.You will get mail if you work for less than 9 hours the very next day. Horrible work life balance.So called product development team has one team coming from six months continuously for every weekends and also "stretching" late on weekdays i.e upto midnight. Almost every 2 weeks there are last working day of some employee.. Salary is inflated and made to look big , but there are loopholes..Like for example TAB(Tenure assured bonus).This is 10% of your monthly salary and will be taken back from you once you leave company if you have not completed so called milestones..These milestones happen on May 31 and Dec 31. So if you quit on Sep ..Then TAB from May to Nov will be recovered which is like your whole month salary. HR is not at all bothered why people are leaving company?Basically they are powerless and just dummies.The whole show is run by VP's and managers. Overall an horrible work experience. Just join if you have no other option left.But again then it will be a big mistake
