Pros

good place to start ur career but you have to be always in the good books of managers to progress in the career. To be in good books sometimes you may have to do something apart from only coding or testing.

Cons

not much scope of career growth Some managers treat very employees very badly

Cons

Not employee fiendly Less pay. A fresher and an experience fellow of 2-3 years will get the same salary - PATHETIC Work force management is not good.
