Pros

Friendly env No dress code mandatory

Cons

Employees are not provided laptops but if put pressure from client, are given work desktop for home with no one to take care of setting it up. Doesn't help much in working from home Difficult to get relocation to offices. No concern shown for employee health at all. Promises made at the time of recruitment not kept.

Pros

* They train new grads, so you get a lot of valuable training * Depending on the projects, it has the potential to have a good life balance *Hybrid and Remote opportunity Will recommend to get your foot in the door

Cons

* Pay is not very competitive. Needs improvement * Depending on some client projects, the work-life balance can also be very bad * The culture is horrible, the outlook and appearance of the company is so different than what is on the ground—cutthroat culture, pushing culture. * Sometimes it enables a rude and disrespectful culture * Career growth is very minimal * tend to hire lots of indians, and an indian dominated culture/circle can make a non indian feel left out
