Don't have anything , just nothing.

Cons

Just want say one thing , all the single star reviews are genuine others are fake. This is the ,one of those company which has more(US) VP ,director , mangers than any working class. Please Don't ever try to join as Full time to this company, they will make your life hell. One good friend has written very long review about this company , all those things are true and much worse than that. No higher management ever trust you. These people are loosing project in many company , try to save their ship only by abusing the employees.
