Pros

Great people, great vertical, great location, above-average remuneration, great learning opportunities, great opportunities to engage with clients, patient client base, clients are mostly joint-stakeholders with the company on product development.

Cons

* Constantly changing technology policies- flex, zk, java, jquery... * Strategy seems confused and trying to do it 'all-at-once' - cloud, mobile, accessibility... * Revolving-door higher management - top management seldom stays around long enough to implement their strategy or technology vision, probably the reason for the above-mentioned cons. * Clueless HR - seems to exist just to do whatever middle management wants, irrespective of whether it helps employees or not. Management more focused on generating buzz as a means for career advancement rather than work on meaningful employee-friendly policies. * The air around the Bangalore office is more like a vendor company for the US office rather than an equal development office. Primarily because of the attitudes of Bangalore management who have never worked elsewhere and cut their teeth under such an outdated 'outsourced' IT climate. * Middle and senior management at the Bangalore office have been around forever and have no clue how a modern IT company works. Power structures are well entrenched and jealously guarded.
