Pros

You can travel abroad if you are good at licking Best company to work if you are someone who prefers to spend time in cafeteria You can build some good network because everyone is looking for a job

Cons

Its a worst company that i have ever worked for. They have excessive manpower in all the departments and still are hiring people. Most the work is second grade testing and porting work from Sydney and Vegas which can be done by 2-3 persons but the management will hire 15-20 people and 5-6 managers just to make their team bigger. There is no stability in the organization, worst HR team, unorganized structure, they ask people to leave for no reason and spoil their career. STOP buying best place to work medals. I know atleast 30-35 team members who gave worst feedback in the surveys but you guys still get good ratings. People with no skill, no experience are being promoted because they are friends with someone who can influence management decisions. India Head always acts like a blind man and take no action against his close aides who are only good in politics or maths. HR will make IT to read your emails and personal messages. Women are not safe in this company and are made to dance with visitors during office parties

Pros

Excellent company. Clear winner in the sector. Treats its people well even as it manages through business cycles and need to be leaner in some areas. Committed to maintaining industry leadership through heavy investment in best content / products.

Cons

Nothing major. Could move faster at times, but making progress there.

Pros

The people are the best part of this company and the reason I endured for so long.

Cons

There is constant upheaval internally. I had 5 VPs in the span of 4 years. Endured multiple reorgs with a carrot of a promotion held in front of me to be told, "just wait another year." The poor managers are constantly trying to hire people, but HR will pause the job req last second almost every time.
