Pros

big company with lots of financial resources. Marketing budget was adequate and trade show presence was good for the particular time in the marketplace. Attempting to meet a challenging, changing industry.

Cons

changes in management and investors proved tricky. Differing goals and targets for all business heads were sometime in direct opposition which fostered an almost competitive environment internally.

Pros

1. Confidence. Majority of employees conduct themselves like raggedy carpenters while pretending to be working in an "MNC"; they do it with utmost pride and confidence.

Cons

1. If you re honest and diligent, you will get all the work in the world and will have no time to eat or use the washroom. 2. No appreciation - verbal nor monetary. 3. The others watch YouTube all day but their team leaders don't care because often they're busy doing the same thing. 3. It's like a factory of daily-wagers. God forbid you forget to clock-in one day, kiss that day's salary goodbye. 4. The finance department are like lazy uncles from a post office in 1960. You might have your queries about why half your salary was deducted, but what do they care? They only come to office to eat their tiffin. Five times a day. 5. Cafeteria is home to cockroach-joint-families. 6. Tea and coffee cost 10 bucks and taste like somebody dipped and squeezed out a wash rag in them. 7. If you ever have to go number 2 during office hours, god bless u. 8. No water arrangements. A cup of water will take you a 10 min walk to the cafeteria, greeted by a horrible smell of filth and stale onions from an underground drainage that's always blocked and stinking, and yet is located next to the water cooler. Carry some extra in a cup on your way back, in case the stench makes u retch. 9. The smoking area looks like a dangerous back-alley and god forbid you want to smoke while it's raining outside, you'll be greeted by a broken-pipeline-waterfall 10. Nobody cares. good luck receiving your fnf if u decide to quit. 11. There are mice. If you decide to work here after all, don't put your bags on the floor.
