Pros

A lot to learn Can switch from one to other domain work on almost everything Consist of different business model (some focused on work, some places to chill) Best when you want to learn

Cons

Some account have no work life balance (no means none) HR polices are good but only if one knows.. there is no direct HR-Employee talk, everything flows via technical manager. As most employee stay for long, maximum lot have nothing to give new to industry Not best at compensation

Pros

-Flexible working hours. -Ability to work at home. -There are multiple opportunities to enhance one's technical skills through trainings (online/classroom).

Cons

-People Managers are also Project Managers, this makes their roles conflicting as they tend to focus more about the company rather than its workforce. -Contrary to its values being promoted among employees, process is very poor, if there is even one in force. -Holidays are accounted for utilization. If there are public or non-working holidays (Christmas, New Year), you have to render overtime to take back lost hours which is ridiculous.
