Pros

- Good talent pool - Decent salary

Cons

- Politics - Company does not care to control politics as long as work gets done - No bothering about quality - just deliver and fix later - Starting from a Director level, people gets kicked out for no reasons if the top management decides so. Performance ratings are not justified. - Bad managers probably illusioned by the company culture - Finally no respect for your quality software, development methodologies and management strategies effectively nullifying you.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
