Pros

discounted lunch Yearly shutdown of 5 days in the month of December (which will be adjusted from your EL) somewhat WLB Yearly team Dinner/Lunch

Cons

Project will not have profit when it comes to yearly appraisal Scrum master micromanages the team Requirements will not be clear. At the end of the sprint some architect will come and ask you to. implement something which was not planned and POs will not have any knowledge of it. You'll not get promotions or recognitions untill you compromise your WLB. Be aware of the project you join, Research and analyze the project thoroughly before joining the company if the project is in good shape and having customers.

Pros

The company has a well-known global presence

Cons

Poor management and a lack of transparency. The culture is very political and full of ineffective processes. Services are overpriced and backed by poor customer support. The company claims to offer 'uncapped commission,' but this is intentionally misleading. As soon as you over-achieve your quota, they trigger windfall clauses and caps to limit your payout. Don't be fooled by the recruiting pitch; the goalposts move the moment you start succeeding.
