Pros

Good vacation time of 25 days, work life balance in control for half the year Seen a lot of people being here for decades also. not too much pressure to fix production issues as they linger around for around 3 months also. Good place for interns

Cons

Very old tools, processes. I bet you will get a job outside with these credentials. Top management is having absolutely no long term view. They just think for a month nothing more than that. Old timers(those who are here for one or two decades) will make others life miserable. These people neither do any work nor will let anybody do any other work. Almost 95% of these old timers cannot get a job outside. They are frustrated with their compensation and skill sets but they know very well that they won't even get 50% of this salary outside. They are very negative personalities. Boot licking of the managers is very much a norm out here. You will be very much surprised that company doesn't have any integrity or honesty with their shareholders, customers and employees. Whatever they offer the employees on offer letter - you actual work could be two or three level down after joining.
