Pros

It is a large MNC working on some very large projects. Good systems and processes in place. Good work-life balance (they have not made any firm decision on coming back to office, you can work from wherever you feel like).

Cons

In the last few months, the company has been trying to reorganize and restructure. There have been numerous lay offs in the last two years, and the company seems to have lost direction. There is no job security no matter how good or dedicated you are. For the next 5 years do not join this company.
