Pros

-I was lucky enough to have mostly kind and helpful teammates and leaders. Each leader had a different style of leading but they did their best to cater to every teammate. -The Risk department offers 3 types of queues, and you would learn the basics first then progress to the harder queues -free coffee/tea/chocolate drinks and snacks -game room with darts, pool, boards games and carrom -weekly 1 on 1 session with your boss, which you can also use for yourself if you have no work issue -quarterly inter-team and department competition -depending on your teammates and leaders, you can even have weekly huddle games -my advise is to learn as much as you can from different departments, understand the SOPs and be proactive in your career goals

Cons

-strict 30 minutes break, this includes personal and toilet breaks. Depending on your Team Leader, they may make exceptions if you are over the 30 minutes break allocation, eg diarrhea, lift not working. Sometimes felt dehydrated as did not drink water. -as the company progresses, higher management seems to be making changes to SOPs without any proper feedback, which can be illogical, create loss and be demotivating -company was not transparent about decisions that would significantly affect employees, work-wise and financially

Pros

Great people but that may be team dependent.

Cons

Culture is very team dependent. Slow to build things but that's probably to downside to corporate... it all depends on the team that you're on
