Pros

Only solace - Platform team / Product features (technical exposure)

Cons

list goes end less, top few 1. No visibility on company strategy, things change every day. 2. Worst work culture and management/leadership. We pay high - squeeze you more attitude. 3. lot of junk senior management driving this. Good people will leave with in one year. Only nowhere else to go are continuing. 4. Daily routine goes through escalations, adhocism, fire fighting, extended hours till 1 or 2 AM (daily meeting at 1:00 AM) 5. Worst HR - Appraisal process is big JOKE, ratings and hikes are purely on lottery. No process, policies, no respect to employees, they feel company runs on their wimps and fancies. 6. Only department/group you find better is - Platform team w.r.to technology. 7. DON'T even think of joining Partner enablement, Delivery team or Vertical Apps (they are worst in the same order). your career is will end if you do so.

Pros

The employees are great. Most people are very smart and passionate about what they do. In the time I was there I never had any problem working with anyone in the company. Always someone to go to lunch with and lots of staff drinks after work (mostly organized by staff and not management) Good flexibility for work-life balance...for some people

Cons

- Disorganized. - Not diverse. - No support for career advancement/training/certification/education - Totally inconsistent with a lack of focus. Strategic direction seems to change every 6 months and it never makes complete sense. - Leadership is tone deaf to the market and is not willing to adapt. Stubbornness is why nothing is selling and the company is falling apart. - Top Leadership doesn't engage with employees unless they feel like they have to. - HR is beyond useless and gossips about EVERYONE. There is no confidentiality in HR. - Lots of recent turnover with long time employees because of messed up operations and managers egos. - LOTS of people have left to go work for the founder of Kony at his new company, or they left to go back to their old jobs. - TERRIBLE operations. Travel policy is crazy!!! Some people can't afford to come out of pocekt and be reimbursed for almost everything. $7k in expenses for travel is ridiculous!
