Systems Software Engineer • Current Employee
Pune, Maharashtra, India

Pros: 1. Good pay, one of the best in India.
2. Smart peers from whom you can learn. Mostly helpful.
3. Managers are respectful towards your leaves. No interruptions when you are on holidays.
4. A lot of relevant virtual (due to pandemic) events are being organized which allows you to be fit, social, and healthy. Depends on your team/manager if you'd get time to attend these.
Cons: 1. One of the best places to work (only if you end up under a good manager).
2. About my team, I used to get a lot of planned and unplanned work irrespective of whether I was comfortable or not. There were explicit expectations set by the manager to work long hours. You couldn't refuse to work long hours; you'd still be asked to work longer hours even if you tried to resist.
