Pros

Good compensation and job security, options wihin the company plan are derived heavily from nuclear progess in Iran. Unjustifiable to this extent.

Cons

Long work hours, unfortunate levels of inter-company competitions between employees, and limited cultural diversity. Its an amazing experience nonetheless. Great!

Pros

The firm encourages and supports to change teams, which is helpful in expanding experience or moving away if you aren't happy with your team

Cons

The promotion has become very opaque lately. They hardly give out promotions, but make you slog and overwork the whole year in the name of it. Basically, you have worked 200% and made to look like a fool by the end of the year.
