Pros

Certain teams have great bonding.

Cons

- No travel opportunity for Indian employees. - Very tough to climb up in leadership ladder in India. The top management doesn't want any outsider amongst them. - 5 days work from office. The orders are imposed as if the employees are slaves. - The leadership head conducts townhalls only to contradict their own statements. Once we were told hybrid model is here to stay. In the next one, wfo is the only option. - If an employee isn't working from office, his contribution is not considered. - Townhalls only talk about CSR initiatives and nothing about the organization and it's performance. - The top management takes things personally and don't bat an eyelash before shouting at their employees. - Height of favouritism. - LDPs are being given all the opportunities. No regard for experienced employees.

Pros

- worked here with some of the most talented people I've met in the city - NY office is beautiful, fantastic view - company events are nice - support for international workers with I, H1B, O1 visas and green card applications

Cons

- extremely hard to get a raise - morale has been tanking because of mass layoffs - everything has to go through the CEO, who takes a very long time to sign off on anything
