Pros

can learn a lot since you will have to do multiple tasks in different area

Cons

You'll have to work in morning and evening to communicate with japan and India members, and working during weekends to reach the ddl. And be prepared to be laid off after project finish. My teammates got layoff at the next week at type out. The management is a mass, I changed 5 manger in 7mouths.

Pros

- The company itself is doing well financially, allowing departments to take on bigger projects - Great work-life balance culture and unlimited PTO that actually allows for generate usage - Casual culture that encourages collaboration - Non-salary benefits are strong, with even lower-level employees benefiting from the stock purchase plan

Cons

- Despite its strong position, the company does trim headcount for the sake of efficiency - Work ethic seems complacent, but is offset by company's strong financial standing - Management can be cut-throat, but strong performers usually do well - Salaries are below market rate
