Pros
  • Using new technologies as long as you are in Java sphere
  • Work Life Balance is good. 9-5 job and nobody will ask you to stay longer unless you want to
Cons
  • Office politics is rampant
  • You can keep working but unless the MD knows you directly or you do more talk-talk (which they call visibility), you won't get promoted or get good appraisal.
Advice to Management

Management should be awarding based on work, not based on who talks more. Sweet talkers have lower level of experience are not going to help the company. Real work is.
