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.
