Pros

-Onsite visit to Montreal ( if you are lucky) - You may sit idle for long time, if you are intended to prepare for competative exams then its a good company.

Cons

There are many to list - Management keeps changing every year in the name of 'transformation' - There is not vision for India especially Software Engineering Group and Courseware/Techpubs - No career growth - Although you are performing well you may be fired if Montreal doesnt feel to carry out the particular task should not be done in India - Every manager gets fired in one or two years in the name of transformation/restructuring/vision - Lack of leadership globally and India- every company in world wants to outsource to India( Indeed CAE Director/CEO may want to do it, but no support from Execution team managers/SSAs/PDLs from Montreal) -HR is very much pathetic, even for the current employees and for the one who has left the company. People may not get relieving letters many a times and you will not be answered by anyone if you try to call. (HR team itself is unstable, keeps changing. Only HR director is fixed like Fevicol

Pros

Friendly coworkers, on-site cafeteria, flexible hours (for non-unionized employees), health club subsidies.

Cons

No training, heavy in processes and red tape, internal competition between divisions hilighted by a terrible management bonus plan that paid out almost nothing the second year it was forced onto employees.
