Pros

The company has many locations internationally with some flexibility to go to different locations; they have a variety of projects, making the work interesting for the most part; there is an on-site gym at the head office location.

Cons

Just like the title says, men from certain backgrounds are given better opportunities; certain groups within the company's strategic business focus are treated more favourably in terms of upward mobility and pay, and if you're not lucky enough to be in those groups then you are basically cheap labour; some managers are promoted for the wrong reasons and don't have management skills.

Pros

Very good technical development sessions. Eight hour work days.

Cons

Salaries are heavily biased towards one ethnicity. Gender bias as well. Sweet talk same work but less exposure and definitely less salary. Also caught when a recruiter sent the same job to personal email. No discussion yet on career goals. Offer letter was rude. Asked for a min 2 yr service requirement for a 5k moving cost. 401k is 50% of employee contribution capped at 6%. 6% is employee contribution . Means Company pays only upto 3%. Have to slog 15 yrs for entry level min to get associate status. No 401k until second yr. No overtime. Claim flat structure but no involvement in technical meetings where stamping needs to be done by the said engineer.
