Pros

Free cab facility. Employee stock option

Cons

Way higher variable pay. Pune office is cost cutting center, hence piece of work that US people reject to do is typically delegated to Pune office Talent is not at all appreciated, rather discouraged

Pros

The team in San Diego is amazing. The Managing Director, Gary Lu, puts his advisors first and would do anything to help us with support. Having been with several other companies, Principal is the best out there. Great environment, awesome leadership and the best support in the industry!

Cons

It seems like the majority of the support comes out of the Irvine office, but the seniority and team to work with is in San Diego.
