Pros

I don't see anything special, it is just like any of the Indian IT company, what matters is only "billing", no quality or no ownership application being developed

Cons

Employees have to slog for 12 hours a day, Whatever customers say, however bad the idea may be, we have to implement. The infrastructure gets a big thumbs down, Developers are asked to work by logging on to remote desktop (Citrix), which is down most of the time - people code 2 hours / day but fight against Citrix and TFS 10 hours a day. Crazy deadlines by high ranking customer who gets on the call scold the vendors - I have never seen so unprofessional attitude. The application architecture is really bad, lot of bad designs and coding standards

Pros

Some good people/employees. Hybrid work.

Cons

Lack of diversity. There has never been a female on the homogenous executive team, with most members of the executive team having been with Tavant for 10+ yrs in that role. Commission - Never paid. Management uses "Management discretion" to keep your sales commission down so they (the division president) can allot more of that bonus pool to themselves. It used to be more fun at Tavant, events were engaging, but that all ended when the marketing guy left. New person is a bland in terms of how Tavant was selling its offerings. Great place to sit around and work. No upward mobility. Maybe would have upward mobility if you moved to the big office in Bangalore
