Pros

Salary is good. Lot of career opportunities. Easy to move to other teams. Learning depends on the team you are on.

Cons

Unending and non-stop work that is not worth the additional pay.

I don't think they have a concept of work-life balance. But my manager strongly recommends not to work more than 8 hours and expects to complete 14 hours of work in 8 hours.

Advice to Management

You guys already know what you are doing. You cannot quote Raising Bar and make people work like slaves. I wonder how the government is allowing your practices, when on this modern day, it's slavery.
