Pros

Good work life balance, good benefits.

Cons

Promotions are based on favortism and not based on who has the most product knowledge and is suited to grow the product and lead a team. They pay new hires more than employees who have been there for 3-5 years. Do not reward hard work in terms of compensation. Outsources many jobs overseas.

Pros

Free meals, good training programs, cheerful environment, nice benefit, no policy of 'lay-off' -as long as you do your work and obey to your manager, you can work until you retire.

Cons

-no career progress, repetitive work across the company, it's called 'flag organization'. there is no promotion so there's no big salary increase. -managers treat employees like children. everything is monitored. -performance is measured by 'metrics' system' with error rate% etc--->used at reviews to discourage people -long hours without OT -it seems many jobs moving to China, India
