Pros

- work life balance(depending on manager) - The work done here is a resume builder and a good talking point. -Actual hardware design work

Cons

-Absolutely no flexibility, need to badge in and out and 100% in office requirement -Barely any paid time off. -No maternity leave -Salary increases are low. Unless you start at a high salary you will not be compensated fairly. - Attrition issues
