Pros

No pros at all.The worst company I ever worked and the management is very poor.

Cons

This is a company where your talent will not be recognised.People from the same families work together in the same account and these people will be promoted irrespective of their talent.The people who possess no skill will be dominating the skilled people and make sure that these people are pulled down so that there is no threat to their position.
