Pros

nothing really. Good facilities like AC/chair ,system

Cons

No salary hike at all If you are "client" it's best place for you. If you are an IT professional ,then this is _THE worst one.

It was good when I joined 6 years back but current management is screwing reputation. Process Green Card High onsite oppurtunities and no rotation policy

Cons

Client is everything, employee is nothing Poor Pay, Hike, Recognition, Promotion Make you work like Slaves Extended work hours and unreasonable compensation Middle management is very bad

Pros

- large number of projects - variety of jobs - decent salary after a certain designation - in this culture of hire and fire, relatively a little more stability here( not that hire-n-fire does not happen here)

Cons

- constant relocations, even for 2 weeks projects. this limits your job life till you are a bachelor or married with no kids. - job security but no role security. your designation or title does not matter. if you are manager and the next assignment is data entry, that's what you do to keep you billable. - management structure designed to incentivise working slow. slow means more hours. more hours meaning more dollar to company.
