Pros

Actual Pros: - Top level management (including the CEO) help build inclusivity by opting to have lunch in the same cafeteria as the rest of the company. - Everyone throughout the hierarchy is quite approachable. - You learn to deal with all kinds of corporate politics and difficult people right from your early career. - Because the environment is so chaotic, you get to work on a variety of different projects and new technologies. Cons disguised as Pros: - They give you health insurance, but parents are not included and you have to pay extra for it. - They inflate your CTC by including gratuity in it to make the number look better. - Parking is available, but you have to pay for it. - They allow one day of WFH, but it can never be a Monday or a Friday. - They throw a good party on Diwali, but do not expect anything else. Not even a box of sweets.

Cons

- Management has absolutely zero interest in your personal career growth. They will go out of their way to prevent you from building any specialization or niche so that you always remain replaceable for them. - The only career path available is from entry level to senior and that too if you are willing to work on multiple weekends without complaints and not expect anything in return, - The working environment is ridiculously unstructured and chaotic. Projects are given with unclear requirements and almost no visibility. Their success will never be attributed to you but their failures almost always will. - The performance appraisal process is an absolute joke. You get one feedback session a year that too after your grade and hike has already been decided. There is no chance to actually discuss your performance or goals and they will end up grading you on KPIs you were not even in control of.
