Pros

Good Technologies, Various clients, a great platform. The company gives you the option to work on different technologies. They have a wide range of of clients, specialized in in different domains. Your exposure will be great in the field of software management, development.

Cons

Biased, toxic work environment, no value for the work and hard work. You cannot say anything, and even if you managed to say something, rest assured that it won't reach the higher management. The managers are always biased regionally, so you don't wish for too much unless you are in the same grounds as the manager.
