Pros

They are probably the best among Indian outsourcing companies especially from a client's perspective. They will definitely deliver better than others. Most HR departments in India are weak but this one is better.

Cons

Not the best at marketing themselves. Quite a few management deadwoods especially in the middle management. Typical Indian company -- for US-based employees, the culture will be a shock especially when you encounter the first disagreement. Long hours are to be expected. Some verticals and horizontals are good and some are terrible -- in those bad verticals, there are several incompetent personnel.
