Pros

Non formal work culture. Annual shut down at year ends. Brand name is good. Restricted stocks given at the time of joining.

Cons

Layoffs through out the year with little to no job security. Less or no useful work but full of politics and expert boot lickers. Not a place for engineer or technical people as the work done at hyderabad is either mobile game testing or load testing some servers and is of no use outside. The worst Management and managers at all levels starting at Sr and Jr test managers. A team is made up of people hired by managers from their previous organizations, some expert boot lickers, talebearers and the rest who keep trying but fail to clear other job interviews. Most of the technical people and engineers quit in short time or abscond because of politics, the work and finding incompetent people leading them or ordering them. And yes pro north indian company with policies of work from home or flexible timing being offered to them or managers pets but for others its against the policies.
