Pros

Good Pay, New Office is good except the Lunch Cafeteria. But facility guys are doing pretty good job for the comfortability of employees. New Office Space is excellent. But when work is not good and the management is not good what can we do with these office space and the atomosphere.

Cons

1. No learning at all, worthless management,. 2. You would easily get to know bad architecture, messy code, no standard of code. These folks seem to satisfying their ego by putting too much pressure on employees especially Bengalore management. 3. No proper coding standards. No Junits. The code is of full mess. Pretty old technology for version controls and the other stuff. 4. Nothing good that I found with the technology here. If u learn the ways of coding standards that practice here you can go nowhere. 5. No Cons for you if you are from good background and smart enough to know the things, otherwise you would find it pretty amusing thinking you are working with some world class engineers.

Pros

- At least they're trying to modernize from their old technologies and certain engineers and management are definitely trying to drive for improved flows. - They try to promote pretty quickly if you know what you're doing so you can have a larger impact.

Cons

There's a serious culture of ignorance, where product engineers refuse to learn anything about the platform provided to them, refuse to know anything about their own deployments, and then are surprised when things don't magically work. As a result, security is ignored to "get things working" and product engineers actively hacking against what platform teams provide them. This and a complete willingness to silo knowledge has led to a lack of any automation, horrible architectures, outages, security breaches, and unscalable practices.
