Pros

Decent salary and the projects are complex so you get to learn a lot.

Cons

Management is a joke here these days. Spineless and everything dictated from above is made to seem as written by god. You get tracked for RTO always and there is constant deadline pressure placed on each and every task. This company has become a complete joke.

Innovation is smaller because roadmap already determined
