Pros

Salary was good Building facilities are nice.

Cons

There are many people from other countries who have racist and sexist values. It was a constantly negative environment including a man explaining to me how rape is not a man’s fault- just natural instinct! Another man said “not all terrorists are Muslim but all Muslims are terrorists”. Also, because most people were H1-B visa hires, they were afraid of losing their job so they worked ALL the time and expected everyone else to also. The company took advantage. No work life balance.
