Pros

Very relaxed environment. You can do 10% better than everyone else and look like a star because their are not a lot of overachievers here. If you want a job that you can do day in and day out for the rest of your life and not have high expectations this is the place for you. The building is a nice place to work. Employees are very nice and easy going. Excellent work life balance.

Cons

Its like the government, its hard to get in but once you are in people just stay. Which makes for a lot of dead weight. Management is only promoted because they have been with the company for a long time. They don't have any business acumen or professionalism. Upper management doesn't communicate enough or effectively mainly because manager don't know how and dont give the effort. A lot of people are unhappy but just like to go to a place where a lot is not expected of them.

Pros

1. relatively aloof culture for ICs to grow on their own 2. on and off few people are good 3. Actually consultants in india are better than some full time hires to work with. The h1bs in full time roles and some GCs/Americans are just 1 step away from unemployment line but there are some good quality consultants who can be directed well to bring in good work. Problem is lack of direction when middle management is just running after money.

Cons

1. top most management is clueless to what is going post the middle tier 2. middle tiers - VPs/SVPs/Directors and Sr. Directors are among the worst. Mostly cast offs from Consulting firms/Tech cos/Other Healthcare firms, this group has some of the worst, clueless folks who just think very narrowly about how to get rid of problems, maybe craft a story for higher ups. Get rid of this layer ( so called people management ) and co. could shine better on the work of ICs, decent software engineers and regular rank and file. 3. Main money maker distribution is different from tech group and the IT here is almost comical - 2 years ago in 2024 there were "directors" bringing AI agents with 90% hallucination .. I mean that has got to be an industry first!
