Great place to start the corporate life

Pros

Had the best bootcamp after college. Great place to be exposed to various technologies. Great work environment. Nice benefits. Flexible timings. Mostly tolerant management. Manager and team depends on the business unit. I was lucky enough to have a chill manager, great teammates and colleagues. My friends' BUs go on a lot of lunches or just casual drinks. Great place to be experienced in multi aspects of a project. From development to management. Even if you give your 70% and maintain diligence and integrity I project deliveries. You can expect smooth and 2-3 year promotions.

Cons

My con, for me, was the type of work given to me. I was looking for more development oppurtunities but was given healthcare integration.
