Bad paymaster and lot of regional office politics
Pros
Laid back culture Job security - they did fire anyone even during the recession in 2008. Moderate work life balance, more dependent on the kind of project manager you have Employee friendly policies (except in the case of compensation)
Cons
Bad paymaster - pay way below the market average, because they have a local employee base who are loathe to leave the organization, no matter what, most good people leave in some time as a lot did, moving to Cognizant back in 2010-2011. Office politics - majority workforce is from kerala/Tamilnadu and if you are not from these locations, then things become difficult, communicating with the team, getting a good appraisal Need to wear a tie every day (even on Friday!!!!) Career growth opportunities are not very good.
