Pros
It's a job. PTO was generous.
Cons
Very bureaucratic. Not much investment in technology stack. MBA / Corporate finance types still rule the roost even as universities are shutting down MBA programs. Digital transformation has been stuck for years because of this. There was a lot of lip service about diversity, but islands exist that only hire specific races. H1-B program is highly likely being abused and possible that some of the teams that only hire from their home countries are guilty of the common practice of demanding a portion of the salary of subordinates be given to their managers or risk having your work permit yanked. Forget wasting your time trying to work with them if you're not an H1-B. Annual reviews require negotiation amongst managers to give out decent ratings for their team which are strictly rationed by HR. You could imagine how broken years of ratings are if the H1-B groups are gaming the system.
