Pros

They are experimenting on new technologies such as ai agentic workflows etc and present a good learning for the employees

Cons

1) You need to be able to deliver on ideas, and as there is no such bench concept in the organization, you shud find projects before your previous project ends 2) Increments are low but still if you can negotiate during your switch , they do provide good pay

Pros

I’ve honestly felt that the company is good at work life balance and offers competitive pay.

Cons

Anyone must follow the hybrid work structure that involves attending office for 10 days in a month (in any order)
