Pros

Very nice people. HR team is good. They handled the induction quite well. Flat organisation, enables employees at lower positions to have direct contact with seniors. Happy and cheerful environment.

Cons

WU Way is not correctly implemented. Some politics might be there. Project management is on a down side. Managers don't have power to take any strong decisions, everything is controlled by onsite people in San Francisco.

Pros

Good infrastructure, laptop provide to disturb your personal life too. Better pay offs as comparable to market that no other company would try to afford you.

Cons

Micromanagement. Policies are created for name sake. No promotion policy, you only get a chance to uplift yourself when someone higher than resigns, may be much more unluck if you are the highest in your project team. Don't believe in their words, whatever said on one day gets changed on another , be aware of it. Politics is something which you would fine everywhere but here its of some extraordinary level and yeah bootlickers have a positive graph here.

Poor leaders, Managers have no managerial skills. Full of politics. Newly opened TEC center in Pune is nothing but a call center.
