Pros

Work flexibly Health and medical plans Child care

Cons

Very slow growth both personally and professionally - The pay is peanuts - Market reference/survey / MRR is just eyewash - Lot of politics to get hike and promo - If you are in a BU that is not doing new features (going end of life/support) you might not grow at all!!! - From last 3.5 years only 1 appraisal cycle happened - Now in May 2019 when cycle is happening it will be effective August 2019 - Next year if it happens, it will be only in Oct 2020
