Pros

Some teams have very friendly work culture Good work life balance - almost no pressure to stay late and work on weekends. Taking vacation is encouraged No layoffs - at least in India. Even if you perform bad consistently, you wont be laid off. Good place for working moms and work from home can be done liberally. Customer focus is intense hence many product lines survive for a long time.

Cons

Struggling to adopt to a fast changing world. Politics and ego among managers is keeping good talent away. Less exciting work - only maintaining decades old code. Food options are really pathetic - may be the worst among Bangalore IT sector for a product company. Job description is not at all matching with actual work profile.

Pros

1. Freedom/flexibility 2. Ethical {mostly} 3. Exposure /visibility to senior management 4. Wide opertunity in work, can work across layers 5. Employees {mostly} are skilled and help out. 6. Minimal interference from manager in your work / almost no micro management 7. Hr are just a pleasure to talk with, very approachable even though they have a tight schedule :)

Cons

1. Pay is below average {only when compared to product companies} 2. People{mostly} are just down right lazy, even though they have an ocean of knowledge. 3. The code you get to work on is decades old {may have 1 or 2 exceptions} so mostly work revolves around cleaning out other people's problems 4. Growth is very slow after you join the company, this becomes a positive feedback loop for point 2 above. 5. Food is bad, please upskill in cooking before joining 6. Environment /culture lacks energy/drive

Pros

Does not work on new technology and programming languages , so your job is secured atleast if you are average person or below average person. Obviously person above average category will not stay here for long.

Cons

Still working with old technology stuffs, mostly driven by competitor not by new ideas.
