Pros

Good lower end people Location Nothing more as such

Cons

You are required only until project is there Changing projects is difficult as they do not maintain bench strength Much focus on external consultants rather than employees They prefer to hire external consultants than existing employees who have upgraded themselves Variable pay depends on your relationship rather than performance No employee friendly policies Very unstable to build one's career No onsite opportunities New management prefer less experienced No proper career growth Chewing salted paper tastes better than cafeteria food Overcrowded office space You may have to answer people if you use recreational facilities. Those are there just to showcase IT equipment is provided only once till you resign as noone is willing to bear the expenses Meeting rooms are only available after 12am midnight Efficient people from support departments like hr, finance, admin have already been removed. No clear indication on who is calling the shots Focus is only on green excel sheets and not on people

Pros

The layoffs were handled quietly and unexpectedly, even though there were some early signs. They didn’t share who else was affected, but it was clearly more than just me.

Cons

They’re doing layoffs in phases, and my position was part of the most recent round.
