Pros

good starting job for graduates, good learning curve at the start and good starting pay as overall. good perks but not long lasting

Cons

slow learning curve after awhile, people tend to get repetitive jobs and roles after a few years. pay is dependent on which team you are posted to

Pros

The company is full of great people, interesting technology, and has a relaxed working environment. Lots of employees have been there for decades so they must be doing something right!

Cons

Like any large company there is lots of bureaucracy and its takes a long time to make big decisions. The pay isn't great so they rely on people's interest in the engineering technologies, and the great working environment to keep them there.
