Business Outlook

Pros

Huge Product Line and wide acceptance to Product range by all customers. Lot of opportunities within company for lateral and vertical growth.

Cons

Leader ship in India is more focused on theory and bookish concepts and is actually in learning phase, work life balance is worst as its POR driven company and monthly review for even DCS business is painful. Its actually a Product company . Company values change with leadership and presently leader ship is trying all trials and error methods and with no proven track record.

Pros

Great atmosphere in the office, with colleagues doing their best to help each other instead of competing against one another. Some useful technical trainings. Moderate benefits. Very good work - life balance, with flexible schedule for some positions. Overtime rarely necessary.

Cons

Salaries tend to be low and increase very little. Many useless but compulsory training sessions. Few career path choices for people without an engineering background.
