Pros

There's nothing like bench-strength here. Freshers will be put directly on live projects. Lot of work means you learn more.

Cons

Lot of work also means no time for life outside office. Appraisal ratings (increments) is directly proportional to nr. of "quality hrs." spent in office....and by nr of hrs i mean at least 60-70 hrs/week...considering u didnt turn up on weekends.

Pros

I joined as a fresher to this company. I don't know what is happening in other companies or their work culture. But I dont know why , but I like my work, even though there is no personal life. May I am workaholic :-), But my team is good and my manager is also good. 1) It is very good for freshers... 2) It is excellent place for workaholic people :-) 3) I am getting good salary....compared to my friends in other companies.....

Cons

But this is a rare case in Huawei, believe me there are teams in huawei where you have to work like any thing, work in Saturdays Sundays and holidays and no rest at all....Just as one another friend told, I am seeing these iSAP people working like animals. and they are having daily stand-up meeting(another new junk introduced, AGILE...) at 8:30 I think..

Pros

good env for ppl who want to work and get their hands dirty.... strong product based teams... if you are lucky the team leaders and team members are also ... good salary, good onsite opportunities, some teams do good systems work.... a place which provides unlimited learning potential, by self-doing... not just bookish... this is a great advantage...

Cons

as has been pointed by other reviewers: Absolutely no concept of work life balance... it is just work, work, work, and work. bad HR policies... no freedom whatsoever, constant pressure to deliver, like a pressure cooker.... the term "constant pressure" cannot be more emphasized than this... little technical leadership. they are people managers in the name of architects. treats people like machines.
