Pros

It used to be a great place to learn and grow. Now, most control is with a few old-timers, and decisions are often made without a proper understanding of the situation.

Cons

It was once a good company, but things have changed over time. Expectations have become unrealistic, and layoffs happen suddenly without clear reasons. People who simply agree with seniors tend to survive, even when leadership lacks proper knowledge or direction. The older acquired projects have no proper processes, and workplace politics are heavily influenced by certain leads. Overall, it may not be the best place for long-term career growth.

Pros

Great team and immediate management.

Cons

No pay raises, no bonuses. Clueless C Suite level management. Constant threat of quarterly layoffs. Growth by acquisition, then gutting the acquired company down to bare-bones running capacity.
