Pros

Opportunities are many as it is a huge organisation.

Cons

More than talent its luck if you are at the right place (right project) to grab them. They dont consider training marks/score while allocating a project. Even an underperformer lands up into a good project and a good performer is left at the mercy of work force management (people who map you to a project). There are many projects that are screwed because of under-skilled people.

Pros

Good if you are starting you career as they give alot of new opportunities and support.

Cons

bad appraisal process and unfair salary at onsite. No hike in salary. only way you can get a salary hike is by getting promoted to next level which inturn happens only rarely. so dont expect any salary hike atleast for 3 years until you get promoted.
