Pros

Opportunity to work Remote Salary 3 Weeks Vacation (More companies are doing this)

Cons

Middle Managers not speaking up for their team: Linux admin, doing backups, monitoring, installing security (there are teams for that, yet Managers don't speak up) If Middle Manager ask you to cross train with an old OS or old environment which is different than what you interviewed for and was hired for, and you say no - Oh boy!!! you are on the list. Do not expect Reviews (was there 3 years, no Review from anyone) Do not expect Raises (no raise in 3 years, colleague of mine on another team got 1% raise) Lots of Turnover No opportunity for advancement and cross training If your there currently, the axe is coming. In orientation, they mentioned pushing customers to cloud and Virtualization; not true if the customer is okay with their Solaris 8 v440 running and don't want to change. Wipro will not force the change, they will force you to work on getting it resolved.

Pros

Good coworkers and project opportunities. It is up to you to pursue these opportunities.

Cons

HR and immigration folks need to be transparent. Immigration team submitted my visa petition for premium processing, but my visa didn't get approved on time. When I asked immigration for an explanation, they just cited "delays" and were vague in their responses. I asked for documentation on when the premium processing was sent and they did not respond nor provide anything. My 240-day extension for my visa ended, so I was not working for some time. I was a few days away from getting approved. HR then terminates me out of nowhere, saying that I am not authorized to work. Even my manager did not know that I was being terminated. I spoke with immigration who said that I had already been taken off payroll and I would be reinstated once the visa was approved. Even the immigration team said that the termination should not have happened. HR just pulled the trigger and it has impacted me greatly.
