      Business outlook

      Pros

      people are friendly, most of them have adequate knowledge on the Tech/Process . Pro totally depends on your manager as its "Managers' Rule" in each team. OCOC culture is just to fool employees.

      Cons

      A lot of Politics A lot of Favoritism HR Groupism/ politics (don't believe me, try to get yourself a referral via any employee other than HR team members) frequent change in leadership frequent change in priority and work process No appreciation concept/ turns blind eye to good work. appreciates their favs.

      Pros

      Good pay, great benefits, great people to work with, boss is great, etc.

      Cons

      Company is undergoing transformation, so it's a bit chaotic. Have to work with old stuff and new stuff at the same time. Hopefully that will change as we transform further.
