Pros

Anyone who had worked here for a few weeks wouldn't have Pro to mention here

Cons

It would be a never ending list. But few to mention so that fellow engineer may escape from hell 1) Quick Hire and Quick Fire - they don't think before hiring and they give no reasons for firing 2) No basic courtesy - management behavior is very volatile after hiring and you can sense the difference once you on-boarding is complete 3) No goals - entire IT team works in an adhoc manner due to absence of leadership qualities 4) No corporate culture - You are expected to take orders without any questions. If so you will be framed and screwed for lifetime 5) No ethics - Dummy HR and no one to support employees in case of any grievances
