Pros

Good culture. but again depend upon project manager. If he is sensible enough you are lucky collegues are well educated, decent

Cons

Utter partiality. Work like family organization. Any manager can bring their own stuff to their kit. Your work is not v very well recognized. your feed back will be dumped in the dustbin

Pros

Long term Onsite opportunity is good.

Cons

Senior management is not being practical, go for wrong solutions when there is a problem in a project :). Only finding it to be an overkill. Fully loaded Contracts for Clients with no vision/equipments(mainly quality of resource) to deal the conditions. Work-Life Balance is pathetic. Came here thinking that Work-Life balance is good but only to know that it is more a problem now days... Work Culture is pretty bad, Senior Management are institutionalized to think that more the time spent on office more the productivity.
