      Pros

      1. Good Pay 2. Brand Name 3. Unlimited sick leaves

      Cons

      1. Old technologies 2. Hire and fire 3. Bossy people 4. Micro management (report status every few hours in a chat group which has higher management) 5. Technical knowledge is not important here, only functional knowledge, that too PROJECT SPECIFIC. 6. You can get 0% hike too. 7. Don't be surprised if your manger threatens to escalate to senior management. 8. Don't be surprised if your senior management threatens to put in PIP program. 9. Existing people will be given more weightage over any new talented person. 10. No bond can be formed in the team, as people just try to save themselves. 11. Office politics and favouritism. 12. 0% technical growth over my tenure here.

      Pros

      Very good co-workers, Great technology stack. Lot of new technologies and integration with current work.

      Cons

      They dont even give you a MS cup. They ask you to buy it for 5$. So cheap! Management big on "Giving back", Immediate managers do not like it and are not supportive. Lay off employees twice a year to show profits. Only worried about shareholders and clients. Don't know the criteria for lay-off. So, you are always worried if it is your turn. They boast about mental health and wellness. No good, when they layoff employees like this. HR = Horrible Resources. When you are laid off, they shoo you away as if you are a fly. You feel miserable. They themselves say - "We are better than Facebook or Oracle. We dont fire you at 6 AM over email." Gosh! What a comparison!
