Pros

Overall good company to work for. Offer good work life balance and good benefits. Provides good career advancement as well.

Cons

Don't expect to earn what you are worth they don't reward employees for hard work they only reward the senior executives and ignore the hard working everyday employees.

Pros

It is a pretty decent organization if one is looking for a long term career. Some part of the management is pretty good. IT teams have a decent salary.

Cons

The work is pretty monotonous and nothing new and challenging that one can learn. Management is not very approachable but completely depends on whom you are reporting to. Some individuals are really nice. Overtime is a big-time issue which is not on the verge of getting resolved. Salary structure is not very impressive especially if you are with RIS team. IT team gets a decent salary.
