Pros

Good working hours and nice working environment as the offices were in university's campus next to a lake.

Cons

No career path,bureaucratic, backstabbing and blame culture, as employee you cannot freely express your opinion openly ans honesty, luck of management and leadership skills, they made promises in terms of responsibilities that didn't keep. Unbelievable slow in taking actions and very reactive. I was in a meeting in which leadership was not giving real sales numbers so people should nt know whether will get paid or not. Finally they didnt.

Pros

Its a good company to work for. I had the opportunity to work there for about an year and half and I quite like the work there. It was good to work with so many smart people and get to work on different technologies. No work pressure or peer pressure and tight deadlines. u are given enough time to complete the tasks.

Cons

For those who look for great benefits might get disappointed.

Pros

Working with really intelligent people, projects are interesting enough, pay is decent, company atmosphere is good and management generally know enough technical knowledge to be useful and be able to allocate possible work for you to do

Cons

located in the middle of no where, very very old school management methodologies (might be a positive to some), stuck in a very old school way of thinking
