    Pros

    The company has some great benefits and in general its a good work environment. The executives go above and beyond to communicate. You can also expect to gain a variety of experience.

    Cons

    The work life balance isn't good and you aren't likely to be recognized for your accomplishments. But what company does that anyway

    Pros

    Good work life balance is the only thing that might keep an employee here. I hardly have anything to say under this.

    Cons

    Good work life balance in a competitive location might put in the back seat sometimes. Apart from salary raises each year, there isn't any market correction of salary.

    Excellent work culture Flexible working time and gives good emphasis to work life balance of employees with Work smart initiative Good product portfolio
