Pros

1) Good Salary, even as a fresher, best in telecommunication domain 2) Good exposure to a lot of cut-edge technologies, esp in mobile domain 3) If you are lucky, few people are very helping and polite in solving all your doubts

Cons

1) Culture has went bad over recent years and a lot of work overload is being faced by employees, work life balance completely lost. Also politics among teams has led to an adverse work distribution among employees. 2) Only testing and debugging work given to freshers, hardly any development work done, bad esp for people with CS background 3) Salary hikes are pretty bad compared to other companies in the same salary domain. 4) Collaborating with US guys is a big issue, you have to work and collaborate till late hours everyday, which leads to a very bad work-life balance and you just cant feel free even after coming home

Pros

Great technical expertise in the staff, driven to execute well. Large company allows everyone to be part of something that can change the world. The benefits and pay are close to the best in industry.

Cons

Top management lacked foresight to position company better in a changing customer environment. While products are still profitable, margins are under pressure and cuts are the order of the day to keep the bottom line looking decent. As more cuts are made, the worse the company position becomes in applying the real changes that need to be made, causing more cuts to be necessary to stay profitable.
