Pros

Some clever and genuinely nice people still work there.

Cons

$1.2 Billion in debt. CEO has torn the company apart and the EC has been complicit in this. Eliminated hundreds and hundreds of jobs in the US and shipped them to India to make it seem like the company is growing and is more technologically savvy on paper. Pay is lower than market rate across the board.

Pros

Honestly none that I can say.

Cons

After two decades there, the company lost its caring culture and direction. Morale now at an all-time low: -US staff were laid off or pushed out, a large Mumbai office was opened to cut labor costs, and C‑level leader leadership prioritize profit over people. It’s become a toxic workplace. My team alone witnessed well over a century of some of the most skilled experience in the industry walk out the door without any urge to retain. It's a damn shame for all involved.
