Avantages

- Good and smart team members - Awesome work life balance - Nice and helpful managers - Almost no micromanagement - Team members are generally helpful - Leave policies are good and very easy to take leaves - Products are moving now faster (from last few years) and the focus has shifted to build something new and useful for customer rather than sticking to very old UIs and frameworks.

Inconvénients

- Internal frameworks are used like ADF which are not at all used anywhere else and there is very less documentation around that - Internal softwares like jdev / ADF are slow and buggy - Many products are still built using Java6 which is almost 10+ years old now and they are unable to move to java 8+ because of the messed up dependencies between products. - Architecture is completely monolith and although they have started moving towards microservices architecture, it is going to take easily 5 -6 years more for them to release a full fledged product. Let's talk about the worst con of all : Pay and pay struture - There is no pay limit for a particular role and hence one SE can be paid 6 LPA and other can be paid 16LPA for same role in same team. - Freshers are paid more than most of the seniors (<~7 yrs), so someone working from last 7 yrs(Proj Leader) will be getting paid less than a IIT fresher(App Engineer). - There is no hike cycle literally so employees just keep guessing all the time and even managers have no idea about anything. - No hikes after promotion - Hikes in general are also low (<10%) that too once in 2 years if you are lucky. - No Bonus - No stock for atleast 5 years and the situation can be random, they can give 600 units(~25 L) of RSUs to a fresher and you get nothing even though you are working from last 5 years.

Avantages

Every group/division can be different in how they treat their employees, but I'd say overall there is very good atmosphere of trust and fairness. There is a strong focus on education, and they reimburse for outside classes taken (Up to 5k/year I think). Benefits are good, and I'd say quite competitive in the market. Good 401K matching (they'll contribute a max of 3% of your 6% or greater). Free drinks in the breakroom. Flexibility to work from home at times. (If you live 50+ miles away from an office you can work full-time from home...policy).

Inconvénients

They don't try to make the workplace anything special (maybe a pool table and arcade game are cliche or gimmicky?). In the 10 years I've worked there, they've given 2 measly %1 cost of living raises (this is the same with most everyone I've spoken to, some don't get any raises). You will not get a substantial raise ever, unless you leave then get rehired on (they will not match offers, better to leave). New employees that you train will make 10 - 20K more than you several years after you hire on (not just me, they do this to all tenured employees). They will give these untrained, less experienced people higher titles (again this is done to everyone not just me). You learn pretty quickly that you're dispensable. The company has billions in cash and they don't re-invest in their employees, just in acquiring new companies and hiring new people that know nothing that you get to train.
