Pros

There is nothing of worth to mention of this company which has managed to hide its ugly inside politics from the outside world. The unfinished tower in Thrivendrum is the "shining" example of what happens if the owners of a privately owned company outsource the management( may be with good intentions) of the company to a bunch of self seeking chaps who are still milking the company for their personal wealth.

Cons

Everything is bad about this company: The worst part starts on 1 st day itself- all formal attire even in the heat of Kerala, on all 5 days along with tie and black shoes!! The company is a glorified recruitment agency with people recruited from outside and given for staff aug positions in various places. More money comes( not to company of course) from all the underhand deals in recruitment, placement, building maintenance, the many shows and festivals including elephant parades inside the campus etc. There is no formal sales force, all business is through "advisors" who are said to "influence" clients to give business. There are many more cons, do join this company and talk to some old timer to know more!!

Pros

The company is already shifting from services to products and platforms business, with the CEO driving the change directly. This transition is visible and is steep. The upside to this transformation is the company already creating meaningful opportunities for people to grow new skills and take on more strategic and value-added work. The key is to lean in and make full use of the resources available, including client universities, hack-a-thons, ideathons, and skill transformation programs, to stay ahead. For internal talent, the opportunities in product, platform development, and consulting are abundant, across both existing offerings and new solutions.

Cons

the organization is going through a painful transition unlike anything it has experienced in its 26-year history; while this change is necessary to win in the market, stronger support through the transition is an area where the company can improve and focus.
