Pros

Few teams are good with regards to work life balance, work ethics.

Cons

Micromanagement, VPs expect you to work 24*7. They will cancel your planned leaves however they want. No proper planning of projects, lack of skilled managers hence you end up providing data whole day rather than focusing on your work. To many hierarchy as a result VP’s will poke there nose in every minor issues hence they dont have any work in there plate!

Pros

Own book runner and strategy. Good work life balance. Good working environment and nice people to work together

Cons

No much growth. Promotion to VP or higher is even forbidden based on company policy. Instead, ask people to move to different role. It doesn't make a lot of sense since it encourage people to find a new job.

Pros

The company has a great severence package. Unfortunately thats a pro because they are laying off workers every 3 months until most of operations are offshore. Decent 401k match and vacation.

Cons

Layoffs, pay is low. Return to office mandate.
