      Very sick mentality of managers especially at the Bangalore office

      Pros

      If you can work here under the immense pressure and unnecessary politics and drama, you can work anywhere.

      Cons

      Where to begin. Managers behave like they own you. They have no boundaries. They will call you to office on your day off, and if you don't comply your review will be hit. They have zero ethics. They will pass sexist comments and abuses and tell its all in good humor. I caught one manager chewing tobacco inside the office on a daily basis. No retention at all. Good engineers leave regularly and are replaced with new folks who come from the same geographical region as the management, allowing them easy course of control and manipulation.

Employee's average age is around 40 and above, so lacks young people in work force 5. Not much diversity in work force 6. Old fashioned company
