Pros

Chilled out environment (If you boss is not from a small ex-company n expects you to follow rules like kids). People here have a casual attitude towards work. What may motivate you is theygive car pick up n drop for permanent employees. Lot of leaves but u cant take them and they dont get carry forward.

Cons

located in outskirts of the city, shady area post 6 pm, difficult to get a transport , annual hike is in least single digit number and bonus is two weeks salary for base two levels( Also there are teams who dont get hike at all). No medical coverage for parents, no in house medical support in office.

Pros

The salary is not bad.

Cons

Awful strategic planning. Managers are just looking for trendy keywords to apply to what they’re doing so the can get the budget for their team in the companies internal market but don’t actually intend to do the job (like machine learning or deep learning). The internal market makes it almost impossible for teams to collaborate and you wait a huge amount of time for other people to deliver on what they’re supposed to do. There’s no budget for innovation and whichever proof of concept gets created it always ends up in the pile of ‘good to have but will never move to production’ projects.
