Pros

Few of managers are really good. Team mates are good.

Cons

Hopeless work environment. Very unfair practices. No one except for few of them would support you for anything. Got to improve upon training areas. Judgment skills, soft skills. Most of them are unsophisticated to unprofessional in office time with juniors. Should work more upon the employee feedbacks and of course take it seriously sometimes. Most of the employees are frustrated and don't feel like coming to office everyday. So, quite boring also one can say. Also you just get to do only the routine job, nothing new to learn and implement or experiment.

Pros

Decent Pay, Sometime good onsite opportunity No restriction on timings of the day

Cons

Performance appraisal methodology is biased and not transparent Some real bad project managers who have been hired due to market and lack management skills Internal systems are not integrated, common you yourself are an IT co Onsite HR policies are not well defined Onsite / Offshore training not provided in transition period Job expectations not defined for associates No formal induction at onsite, learn yourself attitude No formal structure or process for associates coming at onsite. The accomodation should be affordable and taken care by the company that is not the case
