Pros

1. Flexible work hours 2. WFH 4-5 times in a year only on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. 3. Free South Indian Food

Cons

1. Almost all products in maintenance mode. So most of the year is spent doing bug fixing. 2. Company has stopped innovating. Only do rewrite of existing products. 3. You have to have good relations with your manager to get hikes and promotions. 4. Have to really try and convince your manager to give you leaves. 5. Managers try to make sure that you do not get free time to work on your skills, by keeping you busy with grunt work.
