Pros

You will get brand name. Little bit flexibility in terms of working hours and work from home.

Cons

You dont get much freedom to work independantly. Dont get enough opportunity to grow and use your skills. Salary structure is not tax friendly most of your earning will go in paying taxes. Parents will not get covered in medical insurance and getting additional insurance for your parents is very costly in shell it will make you fell a bit insecure financially if parents are dependent. Work from home is not there like in other IT company so again achieving work life balance becomes difficult for people working from home

Pros

Early career engineers are given significant ownership and exposure to complex operational challenges. Strong focus on safety, technical development, and collaboration across disciplines. Opportunities to work on high-impact projects, interact with senior leadership, and contribute to decisions affecting major assets and infrastructure.

Cons

Workloads can be demanding, and priorities can shift quickly based on operational needs. Decision-making processes can be slow due to organizational complexity, and geographic mobility may be necessary for certain career opportunities.
