Pros

- Good interview process - Good access to employee data - Good internal tools - High salary

Cons

- Not good managers - No empathy at all in higher management - Not always true if you have intelligent people around, many below average hirings are there - No value for innovative employees - Too strict for pace of delivery against quality - Too slow development cycle - Oncall is too hectic - You are not supposed to get help from seniors as that'll be considered as waste of time of seniors so a clear waste of workforce - You have to flatter your manager
