Pros

1 - Free food with option between north Indian, south Indian and combo. 2 - Flexible working hours although it all depends on the team.

Cons

1 - Pathetic HR. Highly unresponsive and lousy. Expect no response to any query that you may have. 2 - Managers are extremely stupid. Atleast in my team they know absolutely nothing about management and even to write a main they take help from developers. 3 - Managers have absolutely no idea about current status of resources under him. In some cases your product manager will be someone else and your review manager will be someone else and I never understood how the review process is done with such stupid setup. 4 - Senior managers are stupid enough to shout at even junior managers in front of their whole team. 5 - Freshers are treated like dirt in my team. The mind set is that if you don't beat them with can they won't learn. 6 - Recently hiring standards have gone extremely down. Hardly anyone is being hired from colleges like IITs or NITs. 7 - How bad this company is can be clearly found out from the fact that they make freshers sign a bond of 2 year for 2 lac rupees because there is absolutely no other way they can make people stay in the company. 8 - Work is mostly on outdated age old products which are based on outdated technologies which is not being used anywhere except amadeus.

Pros

- Learning opportunities, every day brought something new to tackle or explore - Decent benefits package that covered the essentials - Competitive salary relative to industry standards

Cons

- Management is aggressively enforcing a hybrid model, even for remote employees, and is rescinding previously agreed upon contracts. There's a glaring lack of strategic vision from leadership. - If you're based in Europe or North America, job security is virtually nonexistent unless you're in upper management. Roles are being shifted to India, Colombia, and the Philippines, with cost-cutting prioritized over talent, experience, or loyalty. - The forced migration to Azure, compounded by poor planning, is draining resources. And employees are paying the price — not just through increased workload, but by being let go in recent layoffs (October '25). With many of the positions eliminated quietly transferred to offshore. - Layoffs are being justified as “market alignment” and financial necessity. Yet at the same time, the company continues to absorb small to medium-sized companies, raising serious questions about transparency, priorities, and long-term stability.
