Just you typical corporate H1B-Visa abusing company with no real development.

Pros

You get left alone in your cubicle, and paycheck is always on time, and you will be sure to go home on time every night.

Cons

Cubicle farm, no real innovation, regular lay-offs, under market pay, tons of foreign "skilled" labour, you will never meet anyone higher than you direct supervisor, no real direction, more of a "see what sticks" company. I mean...they don't even have a QA for products. They just push the latest thing they bought from other companies out there without any real development or QA testing and then if they get any suckers to buy the product, they are happy.
