Pros

Famous brand in very good reputation and stable revenue

Cons

Extremely dull and boring, no one talking in the office. Employees need to be punctual at work which is 8:30 am, but when you are leaving on time, will be considered as not hard-working enough, people accept non-paid OT like a norm. Many strict and stubborn regulations, forbidden to access google drive, Whatsapp, social networks using company network, literally, these are blocked. Some managements are biased, unfriendly, and arrogant.

Pros

Working hours are good as you can leave at 5pm.

Cons

If you don't want to get anything done in a hurry then this place is for you. There is a lot of red tape, unnecessary hoops to jump and inefficient meetings. HR don't protect employees so trust is a big issue here and need to be challenged.
