Pros

Not sure. I have only been here for a year. I cannot point to one thing that I think is a pro comparing to other companies where I have worked. I do like the fact that it is in center city and is accessible by public transportation

Cons

Too corporate. There is confusion about clear roles within the team. Everyone claims everyone is responsible for everything, but everyone has different titles. There is ambition for innovation, but the company is set up more to discipline people than create an environment that promotes innovation and creativity. There is a lot of physical diversity (there are people of all kinds), but I am not sure that translates to psychological diversity (the ability for everyone to feel they belong based on activities within the company; i.e. team culture)

Pros

Platform to work on diverse and emerging tech stack. Employee friendly policies like work from home options, flexible working hours, free cab facilities, ample leaves, health insurance coverage etc. Wide range of opportunities, to be a part of varied technology conferences and workshops on emerging technologies. Open work culture, with freedom to express your thoughts.

Cons

No major downside. Interview process is bit lengthy, but worth the wait!!
