Pros

There were things which were good many year earlier or at least we were thinking that few things are good. You may get some team parties when there will be no project pressure.

Cons

Being an employee of this company, I know how employees here are asked to post good reviews on Glassdoor to make things look better here. Some of the employees here are ready to do anything asked without thinking about right or wrong. You can't say 'No' to anything here and not even discuss about any of your problem with organization else organization will make sure to make things worse for you. After effects may include: - Rude behaviour of managers, - Minimal appraisal even when its clear that you worked exceptionally good than others, - Management will start backbiting you. As management here will always be very sweet in front of you in the starting that you can easily get fooled but you will realize the truth gradually. Taking to team lunches, having small gaming session, taking part in marathon etc (when project load is less) is few tactics of management here in order to divert employees mind from the real problems they have in organization. Management here don't care about their employee growth and are just too selfish to think only about their comfort. If you will talk about your growth, you will become their target. Once or more in a while, we used to hear from the management that almost all of the employees who left the company were not good enough and they were asked to leave the organization even when we all know that they resigned from the organization and very in their current organization. Policies and processes here can be changes anytime as per management needs with a note that suggestions are welcome but will be taken care next year only. (as we all know tomorrow never comes). As per management they have open door policy here which is actually open only for their very close employees. Doors are only open here when you don't have any complains or problems with management, with your salary/appraisal or with any of their favorite employees. Meaning of the policies here are too different than other organization, we have clean desk policy here which means not to leave coffee mugs on your desk. Just don't get fooled after seeing some management written good reviews and eye catching nice party photos.

Pros

I have joined last year and I was skeptic initially after going through the reviews. Company's direction since the last 2 quarter is changed dramatically. I am personally being cared for and that is what matters to me. Ignore the feedback here and make your own judgment after joining this company. I can now say that reviews here don't portray the true picture as I checked some of my friend's company's review as well where my friend is really happy but found there are always haters everywhere.

Cons

Have nothing at all.
