Pros
Excellent job security and strong brand name in the IT industry Great work-life balance (especially compared to many service companies) Opportunities to work on automation testing, frameworks, and emerging tools like Playwright, Selenium, and CI/CD integrations Supportive teammates and approachable managers in most projects Exposure to large-scale enterprise clients and diverse domains (banking, insurance, etc.)
Cons
Salary growth and appraisal cycle can be slow compared to product-based companies Internal processes and approvals can sometimes be lengthy Depends heavily on the project — some projects use outdated tech stacks Limited flexibility to choose your preferred tools or frameworks in certain client-driven environments Promotions may take time and are often based on seniority rather than merit
