Pros

There are few good experienced people. The projects with the scope of development technically and good work culture are found at the branches located at important cities.

Cons

Working in the projects in smaller cities do not have any scope of improvement technically and do not help in professional growth. The work done is not properly recognized or rewarded. The time management of the employees is bad. You are expected to work 16 hours a day and during weekends. There are very few development projects in smaller cities.

Pros

Professional, good work/life balance, management commitment, customer focus, reasonably clear flow of information to associates, catering to employee's career aspirations, etc.

Cons

Nothing in particular. It has some of the commonly cited downsides of working with a large IT services & consulting companies. Like - Needing to stretch working hours on need basis, travel, etc.
