Pros

1. The first hand on the latest tech node happens here. 2. A handful of senior folks are very supportive mentors. 3. Flows are easier to understand and operate. 4. A good company for freshers, ONLY.

Cons

1. Biased top-level management which won't care for you AT ALL if they don't like you. 2. Seniors pay no heed to your issues so you are on your own. 3. Neglectful Managers incite fear by threatening to terminate your tenure, even during unprecedented times like COVID. 4. All this with NO grievance redressal mechanism so please keep your issues to yourself. Please forget about the HR department as they are either super busy or super ignorant to take up employee issues. 5. Smaller teams have lower budgets hence suffering huge monetary losses and long awaiting promotions, still, managers play their favorite Rabbit-Carrot game during every hike cycle.
