Business Outlook

Pros

The company is huge with lot of sub divisions because they acquire all the time. Latest tech and skills

Cons

Since I was part of the Acquired company, they kept the salary very low and I tried to remind them about my position and compensation a few times that give me what my position deserves , I was laid off in 2 days despite of great performance. Lay off happened as part of quarterly but in heart I knew I was not going to be a part of that if I did not ask for raise. not treated well at all. My position was remote.
