Great Place to work.

Pros

Sense of Ownership Individual Development Scope - whether Innovation side, or Delivery & moving up the value chain. Work/Life Balance Facilities

Cons

I have been reading some of the older reviews here. Basically, an individual is the one responsible for his career more than the management, I see Nothing as Cons - Just that an individual has to want and work towards becoming an important element of high performing engine. There's no dearth of challenging work.
