Pros

Fast paced company and hence is a good place to swiftly rise on corporate ladder. Flexibility on assignments Rewards come easy till mid management level.

Cons

It is difficult to rise in the company after mid level management especially is US. This is specifically more true for people wanting to go in delivery management. In US they have client facing managers as account managers. Delivery at managment level are more needed in India.
