Pros

- Good Brand Image - Excellent training sessions to attend - Top class clientèle through out the world especially strong in Europe

Cons

- Middle mgmt is worst, they will never listen to the developers - Managers feel themselves like CEOs - Performance review is worst and many managers not even discuss with the developers and instead just put the default ratings. - Lack of career guidance from the managers and they are least bother about developer's career. What managers simply look is billing of developers...that's it - There is no forum for employees to raise their voice - Highly impossible to get into any project which is different from your geography - Worst thing is managers gives their developers on loan to other managers when the developer is on bench....so called slave system - Even if you find out a project for yourself during the bench manager will not allow you to transfer to that geography instead he will say only on loan and the other manager will not accept to take you on loan. Ultimately you may loose that opportunity also.

Pros

Pretty flexible. It's cool if you get on a project with a good client, because honestly you will become like a low-class employee at that company who they all dont care about and expect you not to be around very long so if you can deal with that then you can try and have a good time with them.

Cons

Honestly can't believe the audacity and entitlement of the middle management at this place. For example, last year everybody got about 3% merit raises (not at all keeping up with inflation but still something). This year, they were working with the same pool of funds to work with for raises, but made a "business decision" to consolidate the raises to only management. The rest of us got nothing. And the TOLD us they kept everything for themselves. And in addition to that, they twisted the knife by COMPLAINING to the whole department on a department call that their bonuses weren't enough. Just tone-deaf and careless mostly.
