Pros

None! The only pro I would say is the legacy brand value.

Cons

a) Salaries, bonus and increments are low as always b) Bad engineering culture, asking you to deliver 3 month's of task in 1 week. You will be fed bare minimum information to work on, PMs are there to just chill and write hallucinated documentation using Claude. As engineer you will be asked to do research, get approvals, design implementation plan, implement, review code, do testing on your local system (M2 Air) since there is no infrastructure to test things, get the code approved and merged. You will be given 1.5 days per task. c) Townhalls are full of lies, if you raise questions they will be diverted. d) You will spend time writing slop using AI which is not battle tested. e) Recent review on glassdoor are manipulated by HR

BrowserStack is an excellent environment for long-term career growth.

Cons

Cross-border resource planning and hiring pipelines can occasionally create unexpected delays during peak quarterly cycles.

Pros

None that I can think of. Maybe a couple decent/sticky products

Cons

Onboarding is 99% product and training reps to be Sales Engineers. Almost not focus on sales strategy. US sales team is treated like temp sub-contractors. No senior leadership or true support for US team. No sense of direction. Horrible communication. Everything that helps make a sales org go is run out of India. A customer could be begging to buy software and it can takes to get them a quote.
