Pros

Great Pay and benefits, work - life balance ,

Cons

Very unproductive environment, needs to go through a real " lean " program, internally focused , not on the customer. Top down management is obsolete. Too many VP's, need to simplify and reduce needless meetings, reports and presentations.

Pros

positive points are flexible working hours and weekends off. generally u dont have to work more than 9 hours in a day. reasonably competitive pay compared to other IT companies. reasonably good canteen facilities, subsidized food and transportation.

Cons

poor job security, bottom 10 - 20% or so are axed every year. american policies are not sensitive to indian culture. priority of procedure and policies over people. people are treated more as 'labour' rather than 'talent'. is not able to attract highly qualified people from top schools nor is it able to create an encouraging atmosphere for the highly qualified people it does manage to attract. too much peer competition and evaluation is not able to create atmosphere of collaboration and teamwork. american policy provides too much encouragement to women who may otherwise be incompetent or not so deserving. funny work culture and mind games. incompetent HR.
