Pros

NOT EVEN ONE EXCEPT FREE PARKING , FREE APPLES

Cons

You are very disposable and undervalued if you become an employee here. Almost on a weekly basis someone is either being fired, forced into resign or let go, thus the atmosphere is very dismal, unstable and depressing. Some of the people I worked with were great, but about 90% of them aren't even there anymore. You should run far away from this company or if you end up working here you may become a scapegoat for their poor management decisions. VERY BAD MANAGEMENT AND WORST PEOPLE SURROUNDING YOU . ONLY ONE WORD ABOUT THIS COMPANY IS , ..... IF U WANTED TO SPOIL YOUR LIFE, CAREER... YOU CAN JOIN

Pros

1. If you are bored of politics being shown on Game of Thrones, then this is the right place to explore another level ( especially Java Team) 2. Ample opportunity to grow if you love slavery. 3. The Best place to work for Senior employees, as they don't have any work and come in office to chill (especially Java Team) 4. The senior employees here are able to fool the US citizens quite nicely. (especially Java Team)

Cons

1. Mac Laptops being provided to foolish and idle people. (Java Team) 2. The seniors here are technically incapable, and even Java for Dummies wouldn't suffice for their level. 3. Project Lead has no knowledge of anything except politics. (even a fresher is technically more capable and mature)
