Pros

Work life balance! Like a lot of IT companies, that is better here than FMCG, banking etc.

Cons

1. Indecisive senior management 2. culture of hierarchy and yes men 3. lack of clear processes 4. ad hoc counter intutive decision making 5. Lack of customer focus 6. Worst HR team that I have interacted with in my career. Absolutely immune to common sense. The policies are also ridiculous and sometimes unethical e.g. even if your employment contract says you can buy out your notice period - they will state that Lenovo policy does not allow buy out.

Pros

Absolutely love my team, people, culture, and work events. Genuinely I can't think of any cons. 3 days in-person, 2 days remote. Best work life balance ever, and great pay. Even intern benefits are amazing

Cons

None that I can think of
