Pros

1. Work - life balance 2. Competitive pay - hikes are directly proportional to goals accompalished during financial year . Even if starting pay is not the best , but eventually you can beat any of the competitiors . 3. Freedom to think/innovate/learn . Time is given to properly design , think and implement the solution . 4. Great opportunity to develop personally - learning is not limited technical skills .. you can learn a lot when you have a group of smart people around . 5. Management accept shortcomings and are always ready to change for better .

Cons

A general cons of any big company is when the products become stable , a lot of time is spent in code maintenance which may slow down learning . This is again team specific and not permanent , eventually management takes care to distribute core rnd tasks so that every one gets good opportunity .

Pros

Diverse and global team Best in class products

Cons

Politics - too many business units and not enough centralized product strategy and focus Not enough cross product/group sharing and collaboraiton No culture or proof points of true innovation...really just adding on options and auto generation of mappings to cash cow - PowerCenter. Anything remotely innovative has been acquired technologies (e.g. B2B, Cloud apps, etc.)
