Pros

great place to work if around the great people, loved working there because of everyone around except for a few individuals which is a common journey anywhere, networking and socials life was awesome where you meet lots of people and make lots of friends

Cons

- hard work and dedication sometimes goes unnoticed and unappreciated - disappointed at the nepotism culture - as a result of which those with more relevant experience miss out. It is a sad and shocking practice that goes round. The hiring managers get away with conducting fake interviews for the sake of HR process even though they know all along who will be hired! Makes you realise all your hard work and long hours is never appreciated by some senior management the minute you complete the duration of your employment.
