a complete overhaul

Pros

Excellent work culture. Some times talent is recongnised. Generally fair and if not you have recourse to address this issue. Freshers can really learn a lot. Most people can feel safe as they do not fire anyobdy. They give enough chances to fail. Leadership is encouraged. Anybody taking lead is enocuraged and has a good chance of growth. If you have good lucid communication style, you will really go places. It is also possible that scum rises to the top just as cream rises to the top. Be on the good books of your manager you can defintely be the ONE.

Pros

If you are a beginner in your career, satyam would be good company,however, you need to be again a Telugu for getting into some projects as a fresher. There are more than 3000 freshers in the company who have not got into any projects and are still on bench. These are not ven given looked after from any angle like groming or using them for someother opportunities. They are asked to sit in places where even they do not have access to satyam network. The height is, to fill their daily work sheet, they have to go to cyber cafe and fill it!!!!!!!

Cons

Good to wrok if you are of Telugu or Tamil origin. One person on Top and the remianing full family is in Satyam, all satyam employees know that, there are 3-4 top persons who family (30-60 people) are working in satyam and most of them of no use to satyam. They hardly even come to office. The official language is Telugu and decisions are made in the same. Non telugu person is totally unaware of the same. He/She is just conveyed the decisions. This is know fact, if you are a non telugu, even your salary/promotion is kept at abeyance.
