Pros

If you are good at politics and are a "favorite" Indian, you will get ahead pretty well up to certain level

Cons

Everything else. Rampant favoritism, incompetent management/leadership, folks that are actually doing good work is not recognized for it. If you do a damn good job at anything, expect performance penalty for your hard work. With the stock constantly going downhill right now, also don't expect your salary to go up YOY.

Pros

Pay is high, competitive with other tech companies Working with talented engineers Opportunity to learn a lot on a daily basis

Cons

Super political at management level, lot of in-fighting Leadership principles are weaponized to favor the org ruler Target to remove 6.5% employees per year, kills trust (squid game) No work life balance since leadership takes on unachievable goals
