      Pros

      You get to work with really intelligent and helping colleagues. You get very good time flexibility.

      Cons

      Technologies being used here are bit older because new technologies are adopted only after they are proven to be worthy which takes around 1-3 years after that technology is out in market.

      Advice to Management

      Keep track of people who are intelligent and move them to their right place where they can blossom.
