Slave Pit for Managers to die in

Pros

The only great thing I can tell you is that the number of locations make it easier to move to where you want to move. Other than that there is no way I would work for this company as a manager.

Cons

If you management you will die on the vine, because there is no work life balance. IT'S ALL WORK, ALL THE TIME.

Pros

lots of free time for the resourses who wants to work. -community services keep you engage in social work. -In span of 3-4 yrs you won tbe getting enough exposure to variuos technical challenges.as there are inhouse projects..and do-it-later attitude. -so lastly you have lot of time for family and no work.

Cons

- Very Limited Room for Career Growth -Many unnecessary layers of management - Work/Life Balance is Questionable - Many unnecessary layers of management - No promotions from within (at least in the department I'm in) -Insufficient training -Listen to your employees and give them the pay they deserve, or else you will be losing all the talents to this rebounding market -More transparent & fair review process -limited mentoring opportunities
