Pros

Career opportunities and a good amount of compensation.

Cons

Great company but the talent acquisition team that is managed by Ali Hanif Sheikh is incompetent and biased. New employees were hired based on personal preferences rather than their qualifications. In comparison, the company's previous talent acquisition manager was a better recruiter due to his efficient human resource management.

Pros

Good people at the local level. The work is engaging and challenging.

Cons

Too many to count. Career advancements are extremely limited. Pay raises are minimal and don't get close to keeping up with inflation even for top performers. At the corporate level they are using acquisitions to hide massive layoffs. They return billions in profit to investors consistently, but there is still a constant threat of layoffs and multiyear freezes on pay raises even with inflation and solid corporate profit.
