Pros

Friendly Employees, Flexible Work Timings, Cab Facility

Cons

Don't Expect any Recognition for your good work. They always have reasons if you ask for promotions or Pay raise. No Career Growth Innovations are asked but never implemented (If Implemented credit is not given to the original resource ). Too much hierarchy. Even Company is in Profits, they say as loss in term of cost cutting.
