Pros

Good challenging work. Smart people around in team. Usually very less maintenance work. You can learn many technologies. Even distribution of work between Indian and US employees.

Cons

Always you are forced to complete tasks in time which is less than actually required, and hence long working hours needed to meet the deadlines.

Great pay and benefits but no life.

Pros

Great pay, benefits, name brand company. Never a dull moment. Some of the people are really cool to work with. Truly focused on customer experience.

Cons

No work-life balance. People move between departments so often they never master anything. People enter new departments without basic skills. Senior management too concerned with taking credit for subordinates' work. Little respect for each other in the management ranks. Most times we just fought to protect our kingdoms.

Long working hours. Missing Processes, which they tend to make up by hiring only the best
