Pros

Decent pay and remote work

Cons

There have been silent layoffs happening all the time and no announcement is made. Very toxic work and all senior staff in India have quit and others are all looking to exit. Management doesn't care and only adds more work to existing employees. No WLB. You are required to work nights, weekends and on holidays too since unrealistic timelines are given to customers by product without asking engineering. Benefits are sub par compared to other companies in the space
