Pros

I'll update this if i can think of anything

Cons

The firm won't think about you. Don't get fooled by the management when they say this is for your growth and success. It's all about how they can make more profit by keeping staffing minimum. You will be hired based on your skills and expertise but forget about using those coz you will be staffed randomly on any project requiring any random skill set which you may have never heard of. The leadership will give discount to clients to get the project and then reduce the hours of the team members on paper to make the required profit. Consequence of this - the effort on the project has not reduced, only your hours on paper has reduced. As a result you will get staffed on other projects for the remaining hours and you will end up working 60 70 hours a week. Dont make the mistake of raising this concern to the management coz you will hear a constant echo of "thats how things are done here" and congratulations you have also earned a title of a person who is not flexible. You will have meetings at night with India teams and morning meetings with client. Forget about those personal goals. Just focus on work for the next year or so coz eventually you will quit or become a robot who has no personal life. There are small firms or rather gangs within this 1 big firm and if you cant make yourself a part of any gang then dont think about surviving here. How can you become a part of the gang, agree to their terms and conditions unconditionally so just become a yes man

I don’t think I have any cons since the company was good then and I heard they’ve gotten better now
