Pros

Good pay, flexible work hours. lots of scope to do alternate work n pursue interest but it comes at a really high cost of sacrificing all your time.

Cons

Management keen on just results and not quality of work. Support stretch assignments in your area of interest but that is only so that company gets free work out of you during your spare time. Does not help you move to your role of interest. Hectic schedule, needing nearly 65 hrs of work every week, throughout the year.
