Pros

Can survive without doing anything. A very good retirement job.

Cons

Absolutely no knowledge in ppl in Bangalore. Heard similar things about the ppl in Hyderabad and felt similar about the ppl in Austin I worked with. People are more interested in saving their asses and keeping their bosses happy than actually doing something useful. Saw many leasons-learnt slides having same content over multiple years.
