Pros

no pros no time constraint..even working for an hour daily will give u full paycheckk

Cons

All the good reviews were written by HR and management. Hiring and firing policies no tech stack false commitment by HR JD makes u fool Funding is good but no one wants to spend it on technology Not a single person is good at technology even architects.. having 15 20 yrs exp showoff and big political game Offering good paycheck to new comers but if u look at technology they use then its nightmare.. No cloud, No devops, no automation, all manual QAs, still using php, outdated java, monolithic application, old stack like elasticsearch2.1.. list of cons are big.. better not to expose them all

Pros

Competive compensation,but this is also the cause of the issues below.

Cons

All the old timers in PXP do not have real world skills. These people have hogged position of responsibility only because they were early. I challenge the management to hire an independent audit agency and conduct their interviews. None of these people will pass. No one outside of Contentserv will hire them. The product does not sell.Here too the old timers are responsible.They do not allow anyone to change the architecture and play political dramas. These people are paid atleast 2.5x of what their real skills are. They do not do any work and offload all their work to developers like me . I have worked for 12+ hours per day to make sure the product survives. At the end my manager played political drama with me.
