Pros

Very professional onboarding. Office hours - 2 days / week with flexible timing of 5 hours mandatory in office then as per traffic go back and login to complete rest of the work.

Cons

Please note that while hiring promises are attractive, they apply only after project onboarding. You will initially be on the bench, with your primary assignment being a major BFSI project. Delivery managers are real fun to watch in context to execution and planning. While I respect the military, my MD’s obsession with office drills and constant army references feels misplaced. It’s an IT company, not a barracks; this performative "motivation" is simply frustrating.

Pros

Fast-paced and dynamic environment that keeps you engaged and continuously learning. Strong sense of momentum, there is always something meaningful to work on. Great opportunity to stay up to date with modern tools, workflows, and industry practices. Exposure to diverse projects, which helps you grow quickly and build experience in a short time. Supportive and professional colleagues who value ownership, problem solving, and delivery.

Cons

The workload can be intense at times, especially when multiple deadlines overlap. Work–life balance may require extra personal effort, depending on the project phase and expectations. The fast-paced nature of the work may feel demanding for those who prefer slower or more predictable rhythms. For contractor-based roles, compensation and benefits may be more limited or not standardized, and may require clearer upfront alignment depending on the engagement model.
