Pros

The interview process itself will explain how professional the work here is.

Challenging environment and great teams to work with. You have a lot to learn.

It is not just about technical skills; there are a lot more you will get to learn in soft skills.

There are no timesheets, but there are efficient ways to track work.

Descent compensation.

Cons

Too many hard processes which force you to revolve around them, and that can hinder your ideas.

The evaluation process is very tough for both team members and managers. You have to write a lot to showcase performance.

You may not feel secure in your job at any time, as the expectations are very high.

I felt that you can't easily reach your own HR when you need human interaction; again, it will be through a certain process.

Lastly, work time has no limit. While we can call that flexibility, you may not know when you can be offline during the day, evening, or through the night.

Advice to Management

While performance is important, request more focus on work-life balance across teams and give a sense of confidence that employees will be backed up to an extent and with some help when they are not at their best.
