Pros

Salary is the only good thing since they know no one will stay in this place if they don't pay well

Cons

Too much politics at all the levels, they don't want intelligent loyal people but rather someone who does what they ask without complaining, it's more important to come to office on time than completing the work. If you are working for this firm be prepared to be laid off for no reason or rather for doing the right thing .

Pros

Very good co-workers, Great technology stack. Lot of new technologies and integration with current work.

Cons

They dont even give you a MS cup. They ask you to buy it for 5$. So cheap! Management big on "Giving back", Immediate managers do not like it and are not supportive. Lay off employees twice a year to show profits. Only worried about shareholders and clients. Don't know the criteria for lay-off. So, you are always worried if it is your turn. They boast about mental health and wellness. No good, when they layoff employees like this. HR = Horrible Resources. When you are laid off, they shoo you away as if you are a fly. You feel miserable. They themselves say - "We are better than Facebook or Oracle. We dont fire you at 6 AM over email." Gosh! What a comparison!
