Pros

If you are not a fan of cross continent collaborations over varied time zones the this might not be the work place for you. But on the other hand, who does not want to work with people from all over the globe in this age!

Cons

Highly motivated colleagues and managers. The workspace is full of positive vibes and fun activities. Flexibility is a big plus in here and healthy competition keeps you going. The quality of work is updated and aligned to the market; the company constantly thrives to get better. There are multiple benefits that one can avail here at financial and health front, especially after Cisco took over.
