Pros

“Free” trip to India for 6 months. When you are between projects (aka bench) and you are sitting at home watching TV/playing games, they will still pay you full salary. Also your bench time may last for a few months or in some cases for a year and half (best time ever)

Cons

Extremely difficult to get a project at/close to your preferred location Ridiculous performance measuring system Useless internal certifications Required 3 months’ notice for a vacation longer than 1 day And probably you will never get promoted or get a raise without arguing and threatening that you will quit
