Pros

Benefits are not bad. You may be able to learn something even though it isn't very useful elsewhere.

Cons

People are rude and always play blame games. Most processes and policies are made by Indians in India who don't understand anything outside India. It's an Indian company with "HQ in California" gimmick. They throw away money to acquire useless companies, and then fire people to make up the loss.

Poor leadership and hostile work environment...

Pros

Salaries are in median range in comparison to competitors and benefits package is fair market. Good customer portfolio but most are from acquired companies.

Cons

Poor work/life balance and lack of consistency by CEO. Corporate vision is short-sighted and CEO only understands tactical not strategic growth. Decisions are made but change frequently occurs before that decision can run it's course or prove to be successful. Lack of decorum and respect by CEO has created a hostile work environment where he intimidates rather than fosters collaboration. This has resulted in key execs leaving as well as many talented people to leave the company.

Pros

1. Some people in management group listens to employees. Thanks to them 2. Employees are very friendly. Good bonding between managers at execution level and employees on the ground 3. Old is gold. Some of the old timers are holding the fort of the organization 4. Good distribution of staff across business units

Cons

1. Have seen the organization transitioning from employee friendly to number friendly company 2. Interestingly, CEO talks high about the glass door review with employees without even understanding the ground realities 3. Management changes are frequent. Someone in BU management moved to sales. Someone technically strong moved to HR and now again back to delivery 4. Not an organization that gives equal opportunity to all employees at all levels hence reducing the scope of personal growth 5. Employees are stressed out working day in and out as the only mantra organization believes in is "Customer is god" without even understand employees state. This creates lots of delivery issues dissatisfying customers as well as employees
