Pros

- Brand name - Learning - Food coupons - Timing flexibility - Transportation allowance - Good salary

Cons

- Does not consider employees as humans - They want employees to work like robots - Yearly 'Performance reviews' means firing of 1 employee from the team is compulsory - 24x7 On-call rotation means you have to work for 24 hours for 7 days during your on-call cycle day and night and it is for all technical employees be it DevOps, SDE, System Engineer, etc. I am not sure how they think that its possible for a human.
