Pros

The only best reason is they offer Green Card Processing for employees working in the US, which other companies in the same category don't offer.

Cons

1. Very low compensation package. 2. You never get recognized for the work you do. 3. It is extremely tough to get promoted and get motivated to work in this organization. 4. Initially you will be offered good pay to attract in to the organization; and from thereon the pay package and grade continues until boiling point is reached.

Pros

This is a good company to work for. They are a strong company and get stronger every year. It has a lot of high quality technicel people on staff. The benefits package is very good compared to other companies. They also encourage their employees to lean new skillsets and obtain certifications. The online training / acadamey they have is great. Lots of information for almost any skillset you would like to learn.

Cons

Overall it's a good company. It's a global company with a lot of offshore resources in india. At times the communication barrier is something that can become very frustrating. Also due to the global scope of the company, sometime the time difference for meetings can have you working odd hours.
