Pros

You'll be seeing the same pros, all over the reviews, nothing 'pro' about the actual work/product/growth and satisfaction. Great Work-Life Balance: -Most of the tasks are outright pathetic, not worth the effort/thinking. -Most of the tech stack is something one wouldn't want to touch with a stick. -Generic nonsense about cafeterias/other 'perks'. The Work: -Varies from team to team. -I managed to at least find exciting tasks/domains to explore and extract as much learning/knowledge I could from the masters in the domain. -Some teams/sub-teams do most of the heavy lifting while others just leech.

Cons

"Cons" -The whole org seems to be running a very long con. -Mergers after mergers, Renames/Rebrands -Sudden 'planned' team-wide layoffs/outsourcing, and then randomly re-joining the offshored team. Almost as if there is no actual planning happening. Additional Facts: -Hikes: The org did NOT pay out a hike for the 2020 fiscal year citing various excuses. This should be a RED flag enough if you are joining based off the MNC/Tech/Software labels. -Some people did get the hikes based on whatever criteria. -Lack of transparency, ethics and standards. -Politics galore -Company just had a Merger/Acquisition(s) and is still open to splitting itself and selling off it has 2 entities. Kindly upvote if you found this useful/caution worthy.

Pros

Good benefits and casual environment

Cons

Got laid off despite being one of the best performers while a lot of employees with mediocre performance got to keep their job during Covid 19. They punish their good performers and reward mediocrity. Layoffs are based on sycophancy and not performance.

Pros

Now there are no pros due to management.

Cons

No employee benefits at all except free food two times a day. That too, is of poor quality. Regular layoffs. Over the last 2-3 years, every 6 months (usually during bonus or hike season), they lay off a huge number of skilled employees. Management doesn't take any responsibility. Doesn't look like they have any plan to revive the company.
