Pros

Salary.. which you get for free

Cons

1. No work with senior managers and executives, forcing them to spend time on doing politics to justify their salary. 2. Every senior employee has adopted bootlicking to advance their career. Unfortunately, this has become the culture of the company. 3. Some employees playing their second innings and are not worries about actual work. They are okay showcasing work done in US as their own and guaranting their next few paychecks. 4. Everybemployee has only two choices - sycophancy or anonimity. 5. India offices are treated like trash ground by Us team.. the worst of projects or tasks are given to india team. Unluckily, many employees are okay with this as they just want to get another paychecks. 6. No real progress made by India office in past 2 to 3 years. Except for hiring a thousand plus employees in bengaluru who have limited and low quality work.

Pros

Easy going, nice benefits, free further education (masters/PhD). Great for an engineer starting out who needs to dip their feet in the pool of engineering for a few years and to get a great 401(k) match at the start of your career (compounding growth). Great for late stage career due to the benefits and solid enough pay in a low cost of living area

Cons

pay-scale lagging, no emphasis on learning new things, no punishment for people who are bad at their job. After working for 4 years, I feel like I should have jumped ship after 2. I haven't been given meaningful work that really challenges me in a while. Now I feel pigeonholed into staying because I have enough years of experience that I really should be considered senior, but I haven't been given work that reflects what I senior engineer should be capable of. Now I'm trying to jump ship before it's really too late. If I stay here another 2 years I think I will be genuinely unemployable and will have to stay at this company forever.
