Pros

Lots of projects with Fortune 500. HR works really hard, any 4 or 5 start review here is written by them.

Cons

Let me put this in a very simple way: these are bad people. Management's lack of empathy poisons the whole organization. Abusive language, micro management to the level how you show do the basics of your job and giving you no option but lie to the clients are some of the regular practices. This is an OFFSHORE company, and HR, travel policies and salary levels reflects that. If this is your first job, you think working for Fortune 500 is smth great, you are not good at what you do and you have daddy issues: this job is for you! If you live in USA please work for McDonald's, you will be happier and much more respected.
