Pros

None that I can think of.

Cons

- On boarding was not provided. - Crazy working schedule: They expect you to work from 10 to 14 hrs (which is illegal) - Too much micromanagement - Bad quality in projects - When you want to make improvements they just don't want to hear about it - Too much disorganization - Even getting your time sheets approved it's painful. - They just care about getting customers, they don't care about their employees

Pros

* They train new grads, so you get a lot of valuable training * Depending on the projects, it has the potential to have a good life balance *Hybrid and Remote opportunity Will recommend to get your foot in the door

Cons

* Pay is not very competitive. Needs improvement * Depending on some client projects, the work-life balance can also be very bad * The culture is horrible, the outlook and appearance of the company is so different than what is on the ground—cutthroat culture, pushing culture. * Sometimes it enables a rude and disrespectful culture * Career growth is very minimal * tend to hire lots of indians, and an indian dominated culture/circle can make a non indian feel left out
