Pros

Stable work environment with decent work-life balance. Good exposure to global client interactions, specifically in the US banking domain. It is a secure place for freshers to learn basic corporate processes and communication.

Cons

Project allocation can be very frustrating. Despite having strong skills in Java, Spring Boot, and backend development, I was mapped entirely to an operations support role. There was absolutely zero opportunity to write code, work on microservices, or utilize my core technical stack for almost three years. Career growth stagnates if you get stuck in non-development projects.
