Pros

The people I directly worked with were great easy-going professionals. Occasional Bonuses but only for a small number of people on the team.

Cons

Anyone above your team in management will not be helpful or friendly. Raises will be often dangled in front of you when they ask you do step into more responsibility or into a new role but they are never actually granted. Dogmatic with their promotion and raise structure, not allowing you to get one if you have recently gotten one in the last year no matter what work might have been added to your plate. Massive attrition due to mismanagement and lack of promotions and raises makes it tough to work when you are one of the remaining team members. Company is based in India and if you are not of Indian decent or don't speak the language you will sometimes be excluded in group conversations.

Pros

Online Training is provided and without any experience got recruited as a Software Engineer.

Cons

It's so hard to work under some Indian Managers and some Indian colleagues. They tend to show off their priority and personal agendas. Sometimes they don't hesitate to humiliate others without caring about their dignity in front of all team members. They openly blame people for showing off their power and superiority. Some same-level Indian people treat other Sri Lankan colleagues as fools and useless by unnecessary interference. And also we have to sign a contract for 2 and half years. It is said that he/she has to pay 250K Rupees back to the company if resigns before the contracted time period. Provides employees with small training and assigned them to some projects that they are not interviewed wasting their hard-gained skills and knowledge. Almost nothing is true to what they say in the interview.

Pros

Zero to share. Had a Horrific experience.

Cons

Disorganized last minute interview process. I interviewed with 3 people in the US including the and they all gave me the green light to get hired so I got the job offer and was told I'd have to wait for a background check to get processed with HR in India and after 5 weeks they say they didn’t have the budget to hire me. The next day they posted the same job title and similar description offering WAY MORE MONEY. What!? I have no criminal record and haven't even gotten as much as a parking ticket in years and my references are stellar so there's only one reason why they won't hire me. BECAUSE OF MY RACE. I have never been this discriminated against in a workplace setting and it was horrible. Please save yourself and stay away from this terrible company.
