Pros

Opportunities to learn if supported by outside India leaders.

Cons

Just an advice to those who all are planning to join: A good organisation if you join outside India, avoid for India entity. Hint: Micro management by the topmost level leaders will haunt even if you are a fresher or have a long hierarchy.
