Not a good place for talented and experienced professionals

Technical Architect • Former Employee

Pros: 1. Perks, no doubt about that considering a US-based service product organization. 2. Loop back to point 1. You will not find much except it.

Cons: 1. Management hardly appreciates your hard work. 2. Senior management is mostly engaged with their own dirty politics. 3. There is a reference culture in the most senior roles, where talent and experience are overlooked. 4. There is no work-life balance and a lack of basic corporate culture. 5. The Employee Success Manager (HR) is just for namesake, as there is complete monopoly of senior management, where you need to appease their egos, not with your hard work.
