Pros

Good salary. Good catered food. Nice courtyards. Gym on campus.

Cons

They lay people off every 3 months. Depending on where you land, you will either be working on projects 16 hours a day including weekends until its finished or doing nothing (while will put you on the chopping block) Also the companys going out of business. Just look at the stock, it speaks for itself.

Pros

Pay is not bad Other college grads as coworkers can help you make friends

Cons

Just very traditional, enforces a lot of arbitrary policies on you like RTO, regular badge-in times. Your Team Lead and even Manager many times don't have control over your employment, more so by leadership which seems bent on squeezing as much work out of you as possible.
