Pros

Good office location,Good Gym,Good Beer Bash

Cons

Too many managers. In some cases you have 9 managers between the poor employee and the CEO. Outright nepotism in promoting individuals especially in QE. Some managers do not even come to work every day, rumors are they have a side business to attend.

A very good company, but lot of team politics.

Software engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

They take care of their employees very well. They hire very intelligent and focused people. Overall culture is good in the company. Good team parties. Excellent family outings. Good Free lunch and dinners in office.

Cons

Very rigid in terms of profile. Not enough growth opportunities. Most ridiculous pay structure. Package looks huge but in-hand salary is very less. High level of politics in the teams (on the regional basis). Young managers give preference to their sycophants and to the people from their own home town or from their state. This affects promotions and salary hike as well. That is why many people are now moving out of the company.
