Pros

Free food and cab facility, Insurance.

Cons

Company has only one product which is mainly for Covid tests. During covid, company was successful and now no market hence less hike and bonus. No growth opportunity as middle management is full of politics. No work life as your manager always sits on top of your head until you deliver work. No estimation, no planning. you just have to deliver as per your manager. 3 days office, lots of US dependency on work so work24/7. After doing all the hard work don't expect any hike or promotion. Very pathetic work culture, better to say no work culture. No job security- very poor vision. Trial and error.
