A tale of three cites

Pros

Always works on latest technologies Good in-hand salary for a starter Occasional realization that your formal communication is improving You get a closer look at a Capitalist (in case you are planning on writing a book about them) You will always have work to do as there is no bench What the CEO didn't learn at an IIT is taught to you (if you still have regret of not getting into one) Fair onsite opportunities for people having domain knowledge (but in gaining that you will start feeling sick of all that rubbish) Most employees are 'cool' as they have the same regrets as yourself

Cons

The Big Brother is always watching you just like an Orwellian society Company owners/CEO/Director are in complete obsession with their own lifestyles subtly forcing it on every employee You have to try really hard to be noticed Work is overkill (come at 8:30 AM and leave at 9:00 PM) Recently mobile was banned in the company (I left before that so I am not sure) NO Agile practice, instead company focuses on work more to balance out less employees and less time for a project" Domain knowledge is required in every project which is helpful only in projects at MAQ and other 'Microsoft' related companies If you are planning to go big in your life then this is really a mistake This is not a startup, nor a well-established company, it just feeds off one client which you cannot join for one year after leaving MAQ

Pros

- they have multiple branch locations - they talk big and sell hard - family ran - you can work on 10 projects at a time

Cons

- be ready to work really long hours and on random projects - project variety is horrific and quality is low - management focuses on making revenue and profit - not on getting any good work done. they just want to get away with what minimum they can do to get their invoices approved or new ones signed. - sales surprise us all the time with features teams cannot deliver, they just worry of winning, and not delivering. quality and people suffer - the management play good cop/ bad cop tactic with people (honestly, mostly for being bad cops to us all, to get away with us doing hard work, and little care) - the C level people are rather not friendly, they do try to put a fake smile, but there is so much of disrespect for lower titles like developers or support - Low morale, low esteem despite long hours, lack of joy
