Pros

Not anything particularly good about this company

Cons

Misselling of Job, hiring managers interview for some role and give you something else on joining. Lot and lots of politics No proper work ethics People get promoted on the basis of relationship with Managers and senior management and not their work.

Pros

- Friendly working environment. - Slow-paced and relaxed. - Opportunity to work on high-impact financial software. Quite useful if you want to get into a trading firm later on.

Cons

- Limited skill growth capability (tools are severely locked down, etc) - Work life balance can be shaky sometimes since systems fail after 5pm, weekend, etc. - Documentation is terribly organized. - Not enough focus on engineering culture. Overall probably not the best place to stick around if you like exploring new skills, building from the ground up, taking ownership etc.
