Pros

All the good culture is spoilt with the new India leadership (new MD, new VPs, new HR).

Cons

The company focuses more on head count growth and productivity/efficiency, less on innovation/quality. All flexibility is being taken away from employees slowly. It seems they want employees to leave. Talent quality has dropped drastically in an attempt to grow.

Pros

Unlimited PTO is offered and can be a valuable benefit for those who feel comfortable using it; though, consistently heavy workloads can make it challenging to take full advantage of the policy. There are frequent career opportunities due to high turnover in certain departments, which can create openings for employees looking to advance or move into new roles.

Cons

Within the last year or two leadership has operated in a top‑down manner, dictating priorities and timelines with limited input from the teams doing the work. When projects don’t go as planned, accountability is often pushed downward rather than shared. In recent years, the company has increasingly favored lower‑cost, less‑experienced hires, which has resulted in the loss of several senior employees and institutional knowledge.
