Pros

1. Excellent work-life balance. There is absolutely no work pressure. You could always buy time for even a trivial piece of work. 2. If you join as a fresher, company puts in a lot of effort and money on your training which is really good. You get to learn a lot many things. 3. Lot of members in teams. So work load is distributed. You don't feel burdened. Again it's a project thing. More or less an absolute no pressure environment. I mentioned it again. Oops. 4. If you join as a fresher you would never believe that you ever left college.

Cons

1. Definitely not a company where you could groom yourself, be it technically or personally. 2. No scope for learning new technologies. Almost all of the projects use old technologies. This thing is predominant in Financial Services. 3. No transparency in appraisals. You could work like really hard to prove yourself but in the end it's how you have been with the manager. Absolutely no transparency. 4. You have to be a good bootlicker to get things done in here like onsite opportunities or appraisals or even a promotion. 5. You don't get to meet smart people in here. Managers think they could get everything out of a fresher just to address billing issues. Some times you might wonder what's wrong with the selection process.

Pros

Company provides training on soft skills and technical skills prior to placing on a project.

Cons

Client contracts can end unexpectedly so you may not get to work on a project long term and change from project to project.

Cons

I was laid off after spending several months on the bench, with "lack of available projects" cited as the reason. However, another consultant in the same role who was also without an active client engagement was retained. As a woman and racial minority, I could not ignore the disparity in how these decisions appeared to be made. Before my termination, I reported being recorded without my consent and raised concerns about conduct that I believed reflected implicit bias. I was referred to as "URM" instead of by my name or role, encouraged toward race based employee resource groups rather than meaningful career opportunities, and repeatedly advocated for fair project placement while on the bench. My employment ended shortly after I raised these concerns. Following my termination, I pursued the matter through the appropriate internal and legal channels. I provided documentation supporting my concerns and gave the company multiple opportunities to investigate and resolve the issues. Rather than meaningfully addressing the evidence or acknowledging the seriousness of the allegations, the company denied wrongdoing, offered what I viewed as a nominal severance, and declined to accept accountability. Employees deserve confidence that concerns about discrimination and retaliation will be investigated objectively and fairly. My experience left me with the opposite impression.
