Pros

The perks offered are pretty good. They do not offer H1. Perfect place to work if you want to have good work life balance.

Cons

Uncompetitive salaries. The pace of the work is too slow for a fresher coming out of college.

Pros

Knowledgeable colleagues. Opportunities to work on challenging problems in different applications and variety of software technologies. Some international exposure. Relatively small company with well established place (albeit narrow) /role in the financial domain. Attempts to adopt to the current market conditions. On a separate note: the company might be a potential acquisition target.

Cons

The efforts to position in the current economic environment lead to wild restructuring events that appear to be random in nature. Good software engineers leave the company. The emphasis is on the new management with the hope that they are "the men". Unfortunately the past 3 years do not promise much in this respect. The company strategy is to keep its place in the financial industry (revenue generator) and to penetrate additional verticals. It is questionable that the company's software products and cloud based systems and services will produce the expected results.
