Pros

None I can think of, even having worked here for 3 years. Every other company does things better.

Cons

Extra working hours without pay, lots of H1B consultants, Asians all over the place. Weekend support Excel sheets were created for every project, along with night support, with no offs or additional pay. Contractors and FT were made to sit separately, in hidden closed meeting rooms filled with contractors from various companies, etc., etc. If you plan to join here, have a foot on the door. I mean, literally, have a foot on the door, else they might lock you in.

Advice to Management

Hundreds of projects, only for them to be closed by the end of the year. You guys lose a lot of money hiring poor-quality tech staff and treat contractors very poorly. It's too sad to see such a great company taken over by Indians.
