      Pros

      An extremely employee friendly organization, which does not believe in thrusting opinions on others , rather than works on the policy of inclusion. Good opportunities within the company, employees get time off to participate in training programs & personal chores...salary is not bad either..they continued to pay incentive even during the downturn.

      Cons

      Somehow folks running the show believe all IIM's & management grads are the best managers, most managers are high on intellectual quotient, but their ability to connect with people at an employee level continues to draw flak from within.

      Poor planning from management, Risks are not forecasted...Burdening employees with whatever they can get hands on

      Pros

      Got campus recruited, so its my first window to the Corporate world. Good on job training and Academy.

      Cons

      No planning from management what so ever. They can not forecast any risk.. Lay hands on what ever comes to their way. In spite of repeated cautions on implementation/skills/infrastructure issues, they dig up their graves and make engineers pay for it.They don't want to try some thing new, others are doing it this way so you do :)))
