Pros

There is absolutely no work in company , so you can do whatever you want and nobody is going to ask you . you sit for an year and do nothing. work life balance is all you got in this company , can go for higher studies. almost a third of the entire company(Entire bangalore) does it every year

Cons

encourages mediocrity. All the good employees have either left or were forced to leave.And all dumb middle men are left around doing nothing all day long. Technologically some of these people who joined as freshers are not even aware that they are light years behind rest of the world.There is also linguistic bias , almost 95 percent of the population is local, hard for an outsider to fit in. Some of the managers are dumber than a second coat of paint doing nothing for almost 5 years most of these people here have got rusted mentally and absolutely cannot survive in outside world once you work for 2 years here. There is no connection between head office and Bangalore. Bangalore branch is worse than infosys/wipro.
