Pros
  • Lot of opportunities to learn from tons of great people across the company.
  • You can choose what area you want to work on since the company works in every field in the software industry.
  • Hard work gets recognized.
  • You'll get extremely good in execution after working in this company.
Cons

Test organization needs good quality leads/managers. Most of the current ones are a bunch of guys trying to go ahead with politics/processes instead of working to improve the quality of the products.

Not a startup, so the upside financial potential is limited.

Too much execution focus, with less focus on innovation.

Advice to Management
  • Vision, vision, vision. The company does not see any new disruptive technology coming.
  • Too much execution focus, lot less focus on innovation.
