Pros

1. Responsibility given on day one. 2. A lot of mobility across divisions within the back office - both geographically and functionally. 3. No hierarchy in the company. You can speak your thoughts any time.

Cons

1. Personal development totally depends on the team you're in and who your manager is. Sometimes management are not very supportive and interested in your personal development. 2. Very rigid in academic performance for Graduate students. Cannot get a return offer if you missed a 2:1. 3. Training is quite poor.

Pros

Very good co-workers, Great technology stack. Lot of new technologies and integration with current work.

Cons

They dont even give you a MS cup. They ask you to buy it for 5$. So cheap! Management big on "Giving back", Immediate managers do not like it and are not supportive. Lay off employees twice a year to show profits. Only worried about shareholders and clients. Don't know the criteria for lay-off. So, you are always worried if it is your turn. They boast about mental health and wellness. No good, when they layoff employees like this. HR = Horrible Resources. When you are laid off, they shoo you away as if you are a fly. You feel miserable. They themselves say - "We are better than Facebook or Oracle. We dont fire you at 6 AM over email." Gosh! What a comparison!
