Pros

People centric culture - constantly tries to engage employees Entrusts higher responsibilities to employees to handle Promotes & invests in employees learning, training

Cons

Not a very aggressive player despite being the market leader Promotes mediocrity (70% of the current set of employees have grown over the ranks within the organization and have very little idea of external competitiveness) Not many premium B-school grads in the organization - would give you a sense of competitiveness/ crowd. Not much importance given for education background too. Scale of business in India is small
