Pros

High level salary. Working rules are not strict. Plenty of paid holidays. Rich package for transferees. State-of-the-art technology based products.

Cons

In HR, each responsibilities and roles are unclear. Management obedience. There seems to be no firm belief. It feels like a subcontractor for management or department.

Pros

- The company itself is doing well financially, allowing departments to take on bigger projects - Great work-life balance culture and unlimited PTO that actually allows for generate usage - Casual culture that encourages collaboration - Non-salary benefits are strong, with even lower-level employees benefiting from the stock purchase plan

Cons

- Despite its strong position, the company does trim headcount for the sake of efficiency - Work ethic seems complacent, but is offset by company's strong financial standing - Management can be cut-throat, but strong performers usually do well - Salaries are below market rate
