Pros

Flexibility in moving across domains/projects, Some of the colleagues are highly talented and experienced

Cons

Tech Mahindra - Mahindra Satyam is a company without direction.Although top management tries to implement innovative ideas, the layer from Senior Managers to VPs are resistant to change and nullifies any improvement. TechM recruits from institutes like IIMs and give them substandard work. One of the last IT companies where you are expected to address managers as Sir/Madam! "Boss is always right" mentality is widely prevalent, and that is the only way to succeed in this organization. Hyderabad DC is especially notorious for this, with strong parochialism and language dictatorship. Merger of Tech Mahindra with Mahindra Satyam has started a cold war between senior managers of erstwhile entities - to the point where some of the teams refuse to work with each other. In short, this company is a classic example why Tractor makers shouldn't do IT,unless they understand the difference in culture of the respective industries.

Pros

Depends on the project, I got one which was completely self sustained (no managerial politics in day to day work) and my India team and client were decent .

Cons

1. Low Salary, hardly any bonus or increments annually 2. Mismanaged HR and WFM (work force management) team they block employees from searching jobs till their skills which need to be approved each time by their manager match at least set number of skills in each internal job posting 3. Expect visa holders to find an internal job+ have the H1b transfer done in 2 weeks else they send you back to home country 4. Mandatory work from office 5. Forceful and rude managers with no compassion 6. Most resources are very low quality
