Pros

Free food, transportation, enough spotlight awards (if you are a pet of manager, I was one, so no complaints), high priced RSU (You get decent RSU if you are pet of Manager), dozens of hackathon (do something and talk some none sense, I did that for 5 years, and always got awards), great office and facilities. Awesome talented engineers

Cons

Company has so much cash in hand and very talented engineers from reputed companies. Products are decades old, in last 5 years I havent seen any engineer delivering something valuable to the company. But thats okay keep talking none sense, you will get decent perks again :) So whats wrong? if you are a talented engineer who is passionate about doing something and grow, dude you are trapped in this company. Then who enjoy this company? freshers who get paid a lot and does nothing other than extra circular activities , old aged guys who is old enough so that they can not contribute anything (no worries, no one contributes in this company :). You get screwed, if you are not a pet of you manager or a licker of management. Count your days, you will be part of next layoff . Forgot to tell every year intuit layoff (fire) ~500 high performing engineer who doesnt lick well :) (BTW I decided to leave not part of any layoff). About managers - Bangalore office, all managers are from **** service companies, now you know whats wrong? You wont find a single technically skilled manager who manages highly skilled engineers

Pros

Office Perks: Free gluten-free lunch on Wednesdays, along with free snacks and coffee.

Cons

Zero Real Training: They do not properly train you for the actual job. The training is completely rushed and horrible, leaving you highly unprepared for the actual workflows. Complete Isolation from Management: You are entirely on your own. You will almost never actually meet with your team lead or management for constructive guidance. The "Hunger Games" Culture: The entire operation is completely unorganized and highly unprofessional. You are constantly reminded that you are easily replaceable, creating a toxic, high-stress atmosphere where everyone is walking on eggshells. Absurd Case Metrics & Restricted Breaks: The job is run like a jail. They actively discourage you from taking your legally allowed breaks and expect you to process complex cases back-to-back with zero breathing room. Unethical Directives on Fraud: Shockingly, there are instances where you are actively encouraged to keep fraudulent accounts open rather than properly securing them, which goes against basic compliance integrity. Forced Scheduling & Lack of Agency Support: Management will force you into late schedules with no flexibility. The Blindside Firing: There is zero job security here. If they decide they are done with you, they will simply call your staffing agency behind your back and fire you with absolutely no explanation, leaving you completely blindsided and locked out of your systems without warning.
