Business Outlook

Pros

Doesnt seem like an offshore American company;Employees could drop in and leave anytime they like,roam around and shout in their own vernacular or could come wearing the same clothes you slept on the previous night.Only few projects are good and rest are all petty maintenance stuffs that any graduate can do.

Cons

Managers are incompetent, and so are team leads because they dont care about the welfare of the employees.They arent friendly either.Appraisals,ratings etc are fully biased and not according to the work done.Your chance of going abroad???Leave your work and get in touch with the right people.
