Pros

Great benefits, good work life balance.

Cons

Your success in the company depends on your direct manager. If you have a terrible manager, you will not progress up the ladder. If you have a good manager, your career will flourish. Too many downsizing/restructuring programs. The CEO is fixated on EBITA, the bottom line is more valued than the "human element".

Pros

Work Life Balance Trainings Office layout & facilities CTC compensation

Cons

Entire career, promotions, recognition depends on whims & fancy of your supervisor Zero accountability / feedback for supervisor "Select identified Top 5%tile" have stupendous career growths @ cost of the rest 95% !! Operational cadre "Empowered" without authority - even a meagre $1 spend needs to be approved Highly fluctuating career / technology path Bottom up approach in everything... including defining goals, projects !! (except taking in any suggestions for improvement) Too many leadership changes in short spans - as low as <1yr Cross-collaborations, Innovations, Employee development, Take ownership - only buzz words in board room meetings
