Pros

Good work life balance More strategic minded than competitors Great if you work in sales and marketing Flat hierarchy makes it easier to interact with senior management

Cons

Weak Delivery and internal processes One of the weakest and most biased appraisal process . Totally driven by bias and some HR driven quote without any regard to on-the-ground considerations. Promotion process is weak and given to people liked by boss rather than to performers. Promotion process is offshore minded. Not many promotions at onsite.
