Pros
Fast-paced environment that may suit people who prefer constant engagement
Cons
Extremely poor work–life balance; work often starts around 8 AM and can extend till 11 PM or midnight to align with Redmond During escalations, employees are expected to stay online until resolution, regardless of personal time or health No flexible working hours; office attendance by 8:30 AM is mandatory, and leaving after 8 hours is frowned upon Work from home is practically unavailable and requires repeated requests with no guarantee of approval Heavy micromanagement with limited trust and autonomy Visibility and self-promotion are valued more than actual backend contribution Senior members often take credit for juniors’ work Strong politics and favoritism; respect often depends on designation Poor communication culture—some seniors don’t respond to juniors Many senior members have resigned, raising concerns about long-term stability Recent overly positive Glassdoor reviews do not reflect day-to-day reality and appear influenced by pressure on interns/new joiners
