Pros

- Excellent work environment - knowledgeable people, peer groups is quite learned, best folks from different colleges/institutions across the country join as freshers - facilities are good at the bangalore campus (not sure about other campuses) - technically there are loads to learn from everyone around you, the environment is good where knowledge sharing is encouraged, and one can get very good exposure to different areas beyond their own domain

Cons

- I've seen it in numerous people now, but even the best of them become useless when they become managers, as if becoming a manager gives them the license to retired life, this is especially true for the domain I'm in. - not many folks are hired every year, that often means most teams are quite short staffed, one continues to do the rigorous routines year after year, quite a lot of folks look quite stuck with what they're doing, and they just stop growing - Compensation packages are definitely below average in this industry as compared to its peers. One of the very few companies which doesn't give RSUs or other such options as a part of package - Communication: some so very important decisions get communicated suddenly overnight which clearly couldn't be an overnight decision. I don't understand what's the problem in sharing info. - Extremely discourteous of late, no intimations of people leaving the organisation. - Even the smallest and most innocuous of developments are hidden by the management in that manner as if its like the operation to kill Osama, just that people get to know through rumours anyways. Often after knowing folks wonder - did this really have any importance to be hidden so much? - No focus on talent acquisition or retention

Pros

1. Good quality of technical work, competent colleagues, managers are knowledgeable & supportive. Work processes are very well defined. 2. Campus is well-maintained with lots of facility 3. Work hours flexible, and mostly 8-9 hours except for a month before release. 4. Hire mostly at entry level, and try to grow them in a TI setup, so that there is no work culture mismatch with an employee and his manager (happens in a lot other firms)

Cons

1. Very laid back work. Very few team work, you work alone on your module. No importance given on growing soft and communication skills of an employee. So even a number of managers lack communication skills badly. 2. Since managers are mostly technical people grown up the ladder, the fits well in the organization. But same time, they lack exposure, and at rush hour time takes wrong directions. 3. In India they pay lower than most of their peers. 4. Performance is appreciated, but not reflected in salary.

Pros

1. Diversity of the company makes it a great place to learn from others while delivering in your area of expertise. 2. Management is aggressive about new market opportunities and tries to make transitions as smooth as possible.

Cons

1. Large company means bureaucratic structures in certain situations. 2. Not being in Dallas at the headquarters means that there are less opportunities for growth. 3. Management is too focused on near term goals and revenue sometimes.
