Pros

If you can negotiate on your salary and a get a good package, you are in luck, as thats the only one good reason to work there

Cons

This company has no proper policies in place. The HRs are non existent and do not even reply to emails.Everyone works in cylo and has no connectivity whatsoever. Projects are scarce and that makes the job a constant risk , specially if you are a technology expert. Managers have a tendency to survive on the cost of the developers. Their verbal promises hold no value, and everything resets of ur manager changes. All starts from scratch.

Pros

Good portfolio of clients. If you're in client location, you may get oppty to work in some good areas. Some really nice people.. Good place if you're a lateral hire in the US... you can spend a couple of years, make some good money and then get out

Cons

Horrible politics. No consistent organization. Keeps on reorganizing with no consistent messaging. Some people get a free pass where as others are penalized for no fault of theirs. There's a huge focus on margins (apparently), so if you don't keep billing you're let go. Best bet is for you to reposition yourself as a support function. In orange county corporate office more and more people are being added to HR, Finance and support functions at a direct hit to margins. People in support functions are transferred from India, even though they can very well function from India itself at much lower cost like Infosys and Cognizant do. These function-level people are never let go or transferred back to India. Instead people with potential to bring revenue are let go quickly if you're not billable. Such a dichotomy! Terrible pay disparity - new people are hired at much higher salaries than the people who have been in the company for a few years. Also senior-level people and industry specialists are hired at exorbitant salaries and then left to fend for themselves with no clear direction amidst the politics No consistent long-term vision - extremely short-term strategy, if at all there is a strategy

Pros

One or two great leaders who have been dismissed and replaced with foreign individuals after 6 months and the use of their years of personal contacts and relationships. Obvious undermining mental thoughts, especially behind closed doors. Want to take advantage of the US industry and send it home. Direct quote from senior leaders.

Cons

Destructive to senior leadership and their careers. Use people for all the wrong reasons and could care less about new employees until they steal all of your contacts and business relationships. Only interested in getting new contracts via unscrupulous means. Scary and damaging all the way around.
