Pros

1. It depends mostly on teams. I'm lucky to find a nice team and manager who is very supportive and always gives me tons of opportunities to explore. Enough freedom to play around with things that are new to me. 2. The mixed crowd and the cosmopolitan culture. You don't feel like you've landed up in Mars. Big up to Bangalore for that.

Cons

Mix of good and bad apples in every team but that is common everywhere I guess. More Hackathons to inspire the culture of innovation (Not that they don't happen but should happen more frequently). More interaction between different teams[I don't know many of the folks in office :( ]. Need a gym in the Bangalore office.

Pros

Great people, smart people. With new CEO, maybe things will get back

Cons

Been a horrible last 3 years. Non-stop re-offs, new leadership that cut everyone and brought in new people who don’t know anything. No clear priorities, no leadership.
