Pros

I have met some of the senior people in the firm and their humility amazes me. The culture generally is good and their is a conscious effort to imbibe the global culture in the newly set up office while still retaining regional values.

Cons

Too money-minded. Typical big behemoth firm with its arrogance and resistance to change. Systems/tools are in-house developed the knowledge of which may not have value outside the firm. Most of the managers sitting in US are rational and transparent but the newly set up Gurgaon office reeks of office politics, bureaucracy and corruption.
