Dog eat dog & bad office politics

Pros

Moderate to good technology and an interesting company size. It is also good you get exposure to customers in all over the world. Though that depends on the role.

Cons

There's a culture of dog eat dog, very bad and sickening office politics. I saw some good people being bullied and traumatized simply because they were too competent and trying to actually help their customers!

Pros

Company has lots of smart people that create very creative and innovative telcos solutions. Resilience is the word that I would use to describe this company.

Cons

Too bad company decided to close down an entire R&D department last year and by doing so completed transition of every product development to multiple outsourcing centres across the globe.
