      Pros

      Learnings are good. RPO is Okay. But there will be lot of pressure. Processes can be improved.

      Cons

      Multiple business but there is a conflict. Taglined as OneKF. But its not. Just goof up. No growth in terms of salary. Appraisal process is not good. There is long delay. Company will take their own sweet time here.. Client is more important than the employee here. No trustworthiness in the Search business. No motivation. You will have to face lot of frustation, even if you do extra ordinarily well. No understandings/respect on what challenges you have. Some teams don't have proper hieraracy. Office ambience needs to be improved a lot. It doesn't seem to be @ International level. If you look for growth, you will be discarded by the negatives @ mid level.
