Pros

Good location - next to Bellevue Square Mall

Cons

1. Salary way below average market rate. 2. You have to wear expensive formal suits no matter what your salary or grade is. They do have discount coupon for some ridiculously expensive store and is practically a joke. 3. Office timing - You are expected to be at work between 7 am to 8 am. Your management will be very unhappy if you try to enter anytime after 8 am. You will have meetings scheduled at 7 am in the morning which you would have to attend in person. If you miss the meeting (even if you have a doctor's appointment) your management will point it out. 4. There is no work from home policy. Even during Covid-19 pandemic employees have to be in office doesn't matter if you are critical or non-critical employee. 5. Nepotism at its best. 6. Unethical hiring practices - even if you have a valid visa and you are LEGALLY eligible to work in USA) - recruiter would ask "what happens to your visa if your husband loses his job?", "What happens if your husband's company decides to not renew his visa?" etc and then cancel your application. Recruiter would advise hiring managers not to hire people on visa. 7. Employees get promoted only if they are in the good books of the management no matter how (job performance does not matter). 8. They practice lowballing for all positions. Years of experience or education doesn't matter. 9. Diversity is a joke. Racist and Sexist culture is promoted. 10. Forget getting promoted if you are a woman and have small kids. Female candidates are hired at lower salary than male candidate even if female candidates have higher educational qualification and work experience.

Pros

Wonderful internship experience. I truly enjoyed every aspect of the internship, from the people and team culture to the meaningful projects and great location. It was an incredibly positive learning experience, and I would highly recommend working there.

Cons

While the business professional dress code may not be for everyone, I personally didn’t mind it and felt it contributed to the professional environment.

Pros

Not much, if you want a place that's okay with mediocrity, then welcome.

Cons

They blindly follow industry trends not industry standards. We have an initiative to use AI to increase productivity, without a proper plan, without security in mind and lack of general understanding. Consistently understaffed, for example there are teams or parts if teams that have max 4 developer type roles with 36 apps or APIs to support - this has lead to inconsistent code and effort as employees are spread too thin to be able to deliver quality work. Management refuses to take responsibility for issues that arise from being understaffed. Teams are not consistent in what tools and pipelines are used causing even more confusion and delays. Double standards: they don't want to properly promote or give raises to hard workers. Upper management made it clear to direct managers that "meets expectations" was a fine thing to give... To employees doing more than their fair share of work and are doing work outside of their role since they have no one else to do it do to being understaffed.
