Process

There were no technical questions. Everything was behavioral - they really cared about my attitude and values. I sat in a room with two people, an older gentleman and a younger recent-hire, and answered their questions. Then, I asked my own.

Best for safe job seekers

Software Engineer • Current Employee

Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India

January 25, 2021

Pros: - Flexible work options - General benefits of working in large MNCs. - Almost all the latest & greatest tech stack is available (though it could be very minute in its presence). Even if you don't get a chance to work on those, plenty of learning/training sessions are organized frequently, irrespective of whether it applies to your current job/role.

Cons: Most work for a software engineer would generally be around some legacy software/tech stack, unless you're lucky enough to get into those very few teams (mostly like the Centre of Excellence/Enablement teams).
