Pros

# Provides good transport facility # Opportunities to go abroad (Vietnam and korea mostly)

Cons

# Calls itself R&D # Working Hours are not fixed and staying late for no reason is everyday phenomenon leading to disruption of work/life balance, if you don't stay late your rating will go down # Nothing interesting to learn # More time is spent in finding devices and cable which is a tremendous waste of time and effort # Unnecessary pressure to solve issues feels like mental harassment # Managers are too afraid of their korean counterpart # Little or No gain of technical knowledge # Security checks makes you feel like you are a thief # Hiring more than mgmt. can handle leading to infrastructural degradation # Criticism from seniors for simple human errors # Even if you stay late you are expected to come on time the next
