      Pros

      Variety of clients, exposure to different areas of business. Short term necessary career move, but don't think you'll benefit your career

      Cons

      European opportunities limited and no chance of promotion.

      Pros

      Recruitments from best institutes - IIT, IIM. Intellectual colleagues, Hard working environment, Go-getter attitude amongst majority of the folks across all levels.

      Cons

      Since the acquisition by Cognizant Technology (CTSH), the "body shopping" culture has permeated. Ex-Senior Management of marketRx has taken a back-seat and is busy counting their payout $$$. Some folks are in senior positions simply due to nepotism and should be fired ASAP!

      mediocre company - Not for professional growth

      Pros

      Good paymasters compare with other Indian firms operate business in US

      Cons

      I consider this company as a stop gap , but never be the company for professional growth. You come across ruthless BDM's, some time morons who can not value to technical expertise of the consultants, but ready to lick the shoes of the clients. But feel there would be more professional way of dealing clients. One point we should mention about is that dirty politics and incompetent operations team who do not even take rational decisions on deployment of resources on assignments. There will be lot to mention but in nutshell its just not the right company for career.
