Pros

Don’t fall for a higher pay .

Cons

Middle management is terrible Lot of micromanagement. Managers don’t have vision they just agree what counter part says. Far from IT industry. Leads/managers assign work while they are leaving for the day and expect to be completed by next morning, so you have to sit late and work. Once you join here there won’t be a personal life you just need to work and if you say something then hear long lectures. It’s not a IT company it’s actually runs like a manufacturing mindset.
