Get your 2 years in, lots to learn but at the expense of personal life.

Pros

Lots to learn, working with /for extremely smart people. You need to push yourself really hard to deal with the constant pressure cooker situation. Good brand name to have on your CV.

Cons

Most of the people you work for/with are extremely impatient and don't appreciate what working with teams based in different timezones means. It's NOT ok to page some at midnight for meaningless things. Pay structure in India is setup in such a way that after 2 years your take home reduces. Even if you exceed in the 2 years you will only match the fixed pay from the first 2 years. If you are a manager be prepared to keep rebuilding your team frequently as many employees will use your team as a good avenue to learn before moving to Seattle.
