Pros

It's a decent place to start, as a fresher. Work-life balance is maintained.

Cons

The folks in US whom I worked with ,are awesome , very friendly, but can't say the same for the management here in India. Also, the salary difference between the employees of same grade, differs significantly especially for freshers (mostly depending on which tier-1,2,3 the college belonged to)
