Cons
Job security depends heavily on the project/process. If a project ends or client budget reduces, employees may face bench pressure or layoffs. Salary budgets are often considered low compared to product-based companies. Hikes and promotions can be slower than expected. Experience varies significantly between teams and managers. Some employees report limited growth in non-critical projects. Bench period anxiety can be stressful. Internal politics and management quality can differ from project to project. Work can become repetitive in support/service-oriented roles. During market slowdowns, cost-cutting and restructuring risks increase like in many IT service companies.
