Cons

Only destruction-If you approach to seek help,you will not get any help,and if youu try to help yourself certain escalations will be put in your way.

Pros

The company seems to have no vision for India. Growth plans are discussed. You will be surprised to see the so called leadership, taking behind each other. Some things go right and they consider themselves as divine almighy who's purpose in life is to save other members of the team. How much I laughed. Well in short, you can only find a group of insecure, average guys there who is basically trained to either tell no answer or try and shame you in front of others just to hide their insecurities. In short if you aim the skies, go somewhere else. If you want a highly political environment, join them. These are people with no original ideas,and who despises others with ideas

Cons

Plenty. Poor management, poor facilities, restrooms, ijp program, no transparency etc
