Pros

Good work life balance Very intelligent peers Awesome culture Highly competent management Growing company, with lots of growth and learning opportunities

Cons

No real con. But like most offshore offices, there is some disconnect with the product and higher level decisions. But fair effort is made to communicate the same with the employees in the Bangalore office.

Pros

Good benefits, good compensation, interesting problems, decent codebase, teams have a lot of freedom in terms of choosing technology, engineers get to make a fair number of design choices. Decent internal mobility options.

Cons

Was not given a lot of agency on initial team placement. A lot of friction between teams: working on projects that require help from other teams can be miserable and stressful. People don't answer their emails. There's no company-wide documentation standards so you have to find where other people sit and physically go ask them for help with the bad code they wrote.
