Pros

Happy place if you just want to enjoy life.

Cons

There is rampant compromise in values and impunity in every act of disgrace. The value-adherence once long cherished by the founders is long gone! There is exploitation of every situation. Clients are cheated on delivery front with mismanagement. It is shocking to see, some of the clients are also convinced to allow billing for projects in advance - who readily oblige as their budgets won't get consumed. In return favor, the delivery team helps such clients with extra work later. While doing so, the delivery team exploits the staff with multiple assignments by overloading. It is done particularly for on-site deployment with multiple deployments short staffing and overloading the real good and docile staff members to maintain profitability of projects and account. The lame-duck staff either falls in line and smart lot leaves. The quality of staff has deteriorated and the right thinking managers have also left the company in recent years. Now it is a porous and hollow organization with even the CEO level official accused of making millions in takeover deals and leaving the company under the cloud of doubts. The dishonest staff offers expensive gifts of gadgets and even money to managers during the performance reviews. The people who are willing to engage in such practices get good performance ratings and well paying onsite assignments. They are the ones who don't run risk of getting offloaded from projects when in the overseas posting. Managers openly threat their staff that would resist any wrongdoing about sending back to India, removing from project assignment in a brazen manner. Much recruitment is by personal favors. Quality of the most of the on-site staff of immigrant H1 employees is horrible. There are many people who are on US assignments who cannot talk two proper sentences in English. Spouses of many managers are accommodated in job for doing NOTHING!

Pros

The co workers were nice.

Cons

Low salary Terrible company politics Made fake promises around h1b filing but had to get exceptions and so much follow up and stuff to get it approved. Most managers dont give a s**** about your well being at all and they dont take your side when you are working with clients. If your client is miserable then your life is also miserable. The HR is also useless and incompetent for the most part. You cant even get screens and other equipments for your work. You need to go through ten rounds of some dumb approvals and what not and then even after that its not guaranteed. All the benefits I got were because I had good relations with my manager but this shouldnt be the case. Every employee should be treated equally.
