Pros
Good team and management structure
Cons
Fast paced and sometimes relentless
Pros
Supportive work environment and friendly colleagues Good work-life balance, especially during bench periods Opportunity to learn independently and explore technologies
Cons
Project allocation process appears uneven, with opportunities often going to a limited group Promotions heavily dependent on billability, without ensuring equal opportunities to achieve it Extended bench period without billable work impacts career growth
Pros
Extremely competitive remuneration package when you join. Work from home allowance (only looks good on paper). Technical training and certifications available (but only if you’re willing to sign bonds and restrictions). Relocation bonus offered (again tied to a one-year bond).
Cons
Promotions and hikes are virtually non-existent; leadership conveniently cites “company losses” as an excuse year after year. “Work from home” is misleading: only promised before you join. After joining, EM team members are forced to work from a depressing office (even on night shifts), while colleagues from the same team freely enjoy remote work. The environment is discriminatory within the same team—different rules and benefits for different people. Management style is poor—blame-shifting is common, with lower-level employees always taking the fall for mistakes. Forget work-life balance. You’ll be forced to log 8 hours even when no tasks are assigned, pressured with unrealistic “utilisation” metrics that no one understands. Feels like working in sales where you chase targets just to justify your paycheck. “Positive and fun environment” is nothing but lip service; in reality, morale is low and frustration is high.
