Pros

Good work life balance; Good pay as comparsion to other market players; Global experience with multi culture environment; Great people with good technical skills; Management is employee friendly; Work from allowed; Better chance to grow more; Great chance if you are HCM(home country mobile)

Cons

Medical component in CTC weird. This component must be out of CTC. It decreases employee's take home. This component is reimbursed by Insurance company on submission of original bills & it is reimbused by 90% only. Travel policy is not clear here. There must be clear cut expense limit defined in policy so that manager cannot argue with employee over expense when employee returns from Onsite. HR should be more organised

Pros

Good people at the local level. The work is engaging and challenging.

Cons

Too many to count. Career advancements are extremely limited. Pay raises are minimal and don't get close to keeping up with inflation even for top performers. At the corporate level they are using acquisitions to hide massive layoffs. They return billions in profit to investors consistently, but there is still a constant threat of layoffs and multiyear freezes on pay raises even with inflation and solid corporate profit.
