Pros

1. Work life balance was good in QA teams. But depends on your role, you have to extend and work. Most of the calls for senior and above, will be early morning or late at night and resources dependent on machines have to be in office while attending those calls. 2. Had a good fortune to work with team who treats you as family. Good colleagues. 3. Gaming domain knowledge is great to have. But wish there are more opportunities outside with same domain.

Cons

1. Whatever you work, pay and promotions are not dependent on them in some teams. It is based on experience, manager favourites and not based on what you perform for that year. 2. Too many levels in each role. Sr.Test engineer1 and 2, lead test engineer 1 and 2. Etc etc.. 3. As per management, they give the best hike. But it's not in par with other product based companies. 4. No recent technology used in most teams. 5. Work from home could have been implemented for most of the teams from beginning. Not because of covid situation. 6. People coming from outside with 2 years of experience are put in "Test Engineer" designation. But people staying in company for 4 years and even if they achieve goals, will stay in " Associate Test Engineer" position.
