Pros

The brand value matters the most. Best in the computer networking industry.

Lots of facilities for employees:

  • WFH reimbursement up to INR 25K.
  • Monthly home broadband reimbursement up to USD 350 (350 * equivalent INR conversion rate).
Cons

Most of the projects are in old, legacy technologies (switching BU) running for more than a decade. Work pressure is always hectic.

Even if they provide a recharge day (intended to give a much-needed break to the employees), team members actually end up doing extra work on the remaining days of the sprint to compensate for the recharge day.
