Pros

Good work life balance Leave policy Work from home policy

Cons

In India Bengaluru office (IDC), there are multiple operating companies under only one company’s payroll. It is complicated to tell outside where you work. Weak leadership, many managers are non technical, they are surviving learning DBS tools. Layoff happens they are untouched but the team is fired. Frequent layoffs in organisation, you can’t trust future work they show. They may say we have roadmap till 2027 and next month they fire team.
