Pros

The pay is on par with other tech companies, and the offices are nice. The working staff is also very competent.

Cons

The new culture is to be a 24/7 365 company. Doing an excellent job 9 to 5 is considered slacking.

Pros

1. Some of the R&D teams work on cutting-edge tech stack. 2. HR team in Bangalore is very proactive, employee friendly and focused on employee well-being. 3. E.g. I wanted to quit my job a couple of months ago due to some issues. The HR he intervened and provided a different prespective and I stayed back in the company. 4. Growing company and bright future. 5. Lots of long tenured employees. 6. Very engaging employee engagement programs. 7. HR focuses on corporate social responsibility and I have worked in 3 MNC companies in the past and out of which 2 companies had social responsibility by the marketing team. Here HR focusing is very nice and they engage a lot of employees. 8. Employee benefits and options are really cool.

Cons

1. Some teams work on legacy technology. 2. Some managers are outdated and they don’t make any attempt to change or improve with the current scenario. 3. Managers are not empowered and they micromanage. 4. Finance team here needs a overhaul. Very unfriendly policy and programs and very slow and outdated in every aspect. 5. You will be disappointed speaking to the finance team as they donot provide reasonable solution and they will confuse too. 6. Not much of onsite travel opportunity 7. Most of the interesting work in and around technology and process are done in R&D US based teams and hence they are not using the skills and talent of the team in bangalore

Pros

Clients are typically very interested in products and services although they tend to believe the price for such services is too high. Coworkers that sell or deliver services to the clients really do care! Benefits are in line with what one would expect, no issues there. Work flexibility typically very good.

Cons

Management is still out of sorts since the merger several years ago. Most managers are typically 'yes men' and only want to ensure their butts are covered. Leadership style ranges from dictatorial to fake caring. Too many managers. Lastly, the consultants are mostly contractors as the inhouse folks are overworked and under appreciated.
