Pros

Awesome workculture with very clear hierarchy. The senior most management are the best I can say in the IT industry. They plan and execute it well and with atmost transperancy. Best place to learn and build the competency.

Cons

The salary paid and the appraisal growth for the existing employees are comparatively very low. They recognize new employees with a big hike but very less recognition for the existing employees. This frustates and becomes a major cause for attrition.

Pros

1. The organization is divided into several verticals- and the workforce management group is flexible if you want to move from one vertical to another 2. Good benefits package 3. Pay on par with other IT outsourcing companies

Cons

1. Performance management process not transparent- too much power in the hands of your manager 2. Middle management not as strong as the founders- this could be a problem in the future
