Pros

Nice place for someone who is just starting a career. Benefits are competitive compare with the market. Coworkers are fine. A lot of free coffee and green tea (the expensive ones).

Cons

Avoid this place if you don't speak the language. They have a very rigid and strict time to come in and also to go out. If you are not used to this kind of situations, better not go.

Pros

Nice office building with good decoration

Cons

1) very rigid timing policy and no flexibility.You have to come at 9am and cannot leave before 6pm even if you come early. Most of the day managers call meeting at 5:30 which goes on until 7 . You need to come on weekends also and no compensation for that . 2) All the high tech companies has VPN and work from home options now a days except this one !! There is VPN but so complex way to get approval that you will probably never get it . 3) Work load is huge compared to money they pay . 4) Managers have no management capabilities 5) Performance review process is very bad .6) Senior experience people are not help ful and don’t want to share knowledge 7) The good review that are given here probably given by people who got some benefits from HR to get that 8) HR are very rude 9) No career growth
