Pros

Good salary above market average. Free Cab facility even within the city. Food at reduced price. Groups for sports/culture/talent if you are interested. Work from office - 3 days a week (September 2024)

Cons

This review is about WIMT LOB. There are small applications (UI with 1 spring boot instance) with very little scope. Mostly back-office applications. If you are lucky you will get a good application having microservices and latest technologies. Mostly maintenance applications with only technical changes. Software engineering managers are supposed to be technical owners but they will push all technical work to lead/team members. Mostly manager centrist teams even though Agile is followed. They still don't use public cloud. As a lead you will feel frustrated to work because you will be stuck doing the same work as Senior Software Engineer. You will be the only person working on a small maintenance application sometimes. If you have end-to-end full stack and devOps skills, they will go waste. No work satisfaction.

Pros

Benefits (but cost creeping up and coverage creeping down each year), Good Morale Both Management and Coworkers, and Honestly a Great Company.

Cons

Cross Selling is the only focus now, firing employees who are great at their job in every area that should matter but if the cross selling results are not meeting the ever ridiculous quota (which continues to rise) than you may not have a job next month. Expectation for customers to say yes to cross selling, leaving you with no real control of your job security. Stress!
