Pros

Good working facilities within premises. Good for individuals able to negotiate a substantial pay-hike, and looking for limited career growth.

Cons

The GSC entity is structured to be a cost-arbitrage center, and this is reflected in the policies and work culture. The roles are operational in nature, with creative and managerial aspects of a job being retained at onsite locations. I would recommend that folks take up opportunities here only if you do not intend to aim at career growth, and are ok with a tenure based career progression. HR policies unfortunately do not address internal conflicts of interest between teams and individuals. Prospective employees should expect to work within the constraints of redundant HR policies (esp. older employees and GSC senior management being driven by personal job retention).

Pros

Good, smart colleagues in other offices.

Cons

At times, decisions appeared to prioritize individual objectives over team needs, which affected collaboration and morale. Greater consideration of team perspectives and shared goals would help build trust and engagement. I observed instances where expectations communicated to the team were not consistently reflected in leadership actions. Greater consistency between stated values and day-to-day decisions would strengthen credibility and confidence within the team.
