Pros

- Gaming sessions ONLY if projects are not in crunch. - So much to learn about technology if you are an intern or a fresher. - Tough competition among your peers which is sometimes good and bad. - pick and drop facility from home - Finally you will be good here if you are happy with less salary, in good books with your leads,HR and manager.

Cons

- Starting with, taken the advantage of monopolization in Northern area exploiting jobs and salaries. It may have several tie-ups with other outsourcing companies to not to exchange employees. - Management will keep you glued to work for 10 hours daily on some projects which is normal. They will hate you if you are in love for work/life balance. Meaning less payment for longer works. - Appraisal meetings will be painful even if you think you are management friendly. They have to take you down for any minute reason or fault. - Its an outsourcing company, look for some where else if you are dreaming about Nintendo, Bethesda, Bioware, Blizzard or other creative and art oriented game studios. - No growth whatsoever if you are concentrated on developing your skills. They may tell you to do so but with their unrealistic expectations. - Very less help from the seniors/leads/art directors. They are just for reviews. No growth related big workshops. Just learn while on projects and if you fail, you perish. - Only art leads can give the pictures about the whole working environments. They are not very well trained or talented either.

Pros

Working with people around the world and seeing and hearing new ideas and perspectives was great

Cons

Where do I start? I was making 20/h , my lead said this was just an onboarding salary. It was not. I had become "real" full time employee hung over my head and was promised the role 3 different times, but it never happened. When my little sister passed away I was only given 3 days off. This was absolutely hell and destroyed my mental health but the medical coverage here is so terrible I was on my own and too broke to pay out of pocket. Mandatory unpaid holidays should be illigal. How do you pay rent living paycheck to paycheck when you're forced to take 2 weeks off at Christmas time!! This was a disaster. Some of the management (like HR) says some very racist things twords Indian people and their work ethic... When I brought up how little I was making and upcoming students loans and my rent going up a few hundred dollars, HR told me I couldn't talk about that in requesting a raise. HR told me to "move to Montana" if I can't afford to live where I do now.
