Pros

Softrams has a strong sales team as they are able to crack many projects for company growth and uses the latest technology stack where you get a chance to work on. Being a technical person, still you will get exposure to the product in a good manner at a broader scale.

Cons

PMO keeps saying work life balance is important in open platforms via town hall meetings and emails to the team but never implemented. Few PMs are so rude with the team when there's a prod issue which happens when our work is so unplanned by agreeing every single thing to customers irrespective of timelines.Many resources who contribute individually need to work late evenings and weekends which become culture here. Exceptional timings are acceptable but most of the time we are forced to include the weekend in our planning hours. Though we take capacity of each resource but never bothered about how much time the team spent to calculate if the planning is wrong or the resource couldn't make it in time as planned. Need to dig in those details and plan to fix them.

Pros

Loved working with my team and the pace is fast enough to keep things interesting, but slow enough to not lose your mind as a dev.

Cons

Despite the full day meetings every quarter, really nothing bad at all.

Pros

The company is strong on technical savvy and developing it in its employees. If your goal is to develop tech savvy and be respected for it, they will pay for training and certifications to develop it. They also have a "Demo Day" twice a year, for internal developers to showcase the new technology initiatives (IP) that they are developing. They develop some pretty forward looking IP.

Cons

For all the emphasis that they put on technology and hard skills, they don't do the same with communication and soft skills. Management and leadership easily comes down to treating employees like children rather than adults, which stifles personal initiative.
