Miss the place , but not the work....
Pros
Excellent for those who gets an opportunity at a very early stage of their career (within 2-3 yrs of college passout). Gets to learn a lot of things technically and also professionally. Interactions with teams across the North American continent adding to your knowledge base. Good to work for 4-5 yrs.. If you don't care about your career and just want to earn money, then this place is for you.
Cons
- No respect or acknowledgement for the good work contributed. Only appreciated when you leave the company. - Bad management. - Almost no salary increments. - Learning curve reduces as you work more and more. You continue to fix the same issues every month, every release , every year. - You continue to grow physically and mentally ...but never professionally as the growth opportunity is ZERO (Most of the existing programmers are close to 10 yrs in the same position and are close to 40). - No Promotions. Any vacancies are filled by hiring from outside. - You reach a saturation point where you don't know what you are really good at in a global scenario. - By continuing to work this way, you will reach a stage where you are not qualified to be a manager (since the only thing you will learn is how to fix the issues) and continue to be a programmer at 35. - You can never compete with anyone outside Amdocs, because you don't know anything else.
