Pros
  1. Good salary, stocks, bonus
  2. One is free to innovate, and management actually promotes that.
Cons
  1. Actual dev work is handled by US teams. In India, it is kind of a support role.

  2. If your team is led by US counterparts, then you have to be a night owl, or else you would lose track.

  3. Workload is very heavy. Every day feels like I am preparing for some examination.

  4. As said above, every day you have to sync up with US folks, because of which waking up to 1 am is normal. This may extend sometimes.

Advice to Management

Try to bring in work which could be handled in India independently.
