    Not a company for passionate coders

    Pros

    Good Infrastructure in office , Lunch, Cab, Good pay.

    Cons

    This is not at all a company for passionate coders as most of the teams work 90% on the tool . Culture is toxic here, Seniors torture juniors with their superiority and Managers belittles Experienced by comparing with freshers. There is a lot of micro management and loads of work.No work life balance.

    Thank you for leaving this review. While I am glad to see you enjoy some of the office amenities, I am sorry to hear that the culture and work-life balance have not met your expectations. We encourage you to reach out to your talent advisor to discuss more about management concerns, and to find a balanced schedule that fits your needs. Sweety, Talent Attraction Lead

    Not worth it.

    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    - Good pay - Good location for commuting - not so much for anything else - Occasional free food - Some people are actually decent and worthwhile interacting with - They are starting to care about diversity? Maybe..?

    Cons

    - Pega isn't going to help you get a job anywhere else. You have to learn how to build software within Pega software, which means learning very specialized skills that can't be directly applied elsewhere. - You have to sign a vague-sounding non-compete which will only hurt you later. - Upper-management does nothing. Toxic people are allowed to drive people out without consequence. - People have been laid-off last-minute for no reason. - Work/life balance greatly depends on your team/manager. - No innovation. - They do whatever the client wants because they need the cash. - Can't trust everyone - people won't hesitate to throw you under the bus. - Incompetent people who don't know what they're doing combined with client-driven deadlines = broken software.
