Pros

Flexible work schedule and many free managers.

Cons

Sub Par line Managers. People who spent 10 years are sitting in manager roles and want to encourage their personal companies to be benefited. Raising with HR does not call for any changes. Passive upper management entertaining Vendor companies. Individual contributors are forced to hire contractors from the managers friend's companies so that the line managers could get a cut.

Pros

Work flexibly Health and medical plans Child care

Cons

Very slow growth both personally and professionally - The pay is peanuts - Market reference/survey / MRR is just eyewash - Lot of politics to get hike and promo - If you are in a BU that is not doing new features (going end of life/support) you might not grow at all!!! - From last 3.5 years only 1 appraisal cycle happened - Now in May 2019 when cycle is happening it will be effective August 2019 - Next year if it happens, it will be only in Oct 2020
