Pros

Tie up with various vendors for free certifications for employees who can pass, such as Microsoft, Blue Prism, Adobe, and BA certifications. These are a few I know.

Good policies for returning mothers and long maternity leave.

Multiple offices in different locations, so if your project is also running from a nearby office, you can opt to work from there.

Free transportation.

Cons

Infra support teams don't have much scope to progress.

Very high billing rates to clients, and many times new resources are introduced as SMEs, which later impacts the quality of work.

Movement across projects looks easy on paper, but even after completing an additional 4 to 5 years, it's difficult to ask for release from one project to another.

There is a dress code policy, but that's casually monitored, and there's no check on violators, so it's not clear if they really want it or not.

Advice to Management

Leadership is coming with very good strategies, but middle management needs to reorient timely to execute those strategies, which is not often the case, sometimes due to their own comfort zone or ulterior motives.

HR decisions are driven more by experienced project managers rather than policies.
