Pros

Large Campus and Ambiance of the work place. In the current downturn when all employee benefits have been cut, Management continues to spend a lot of money on constructing fancy building.

Cons

1) Incompetent Middle Management 2) Be prepared to pay for everything on campus. Company makes money from Bus service it offers the employees, Car Parking, health club facilities etc. 3) No work and personal life balance 4) Unrealistic expectations - Employee is expected to deliver the project, work for least 9.15 hours and still drive initiatives, write papers, point of views, contribute to the knowledge store, Complete mandatory certifications, manage proposals. 5) Highly political work environment 6) Promotions are not merit based. 7) NO communication to employees. Employee has get employee related policy information and news from the media. 8) Even if the senior management spends 10% of the time they spend with the media with employees, the company can be a far better place to work. 9) All employee benefits have slowly been removed. 10) The value system has eroded. The company is only driven by Monetary Value.
