      Pros

      The organisation is good as a whole but not the managers as their personality reflect arrogance and bad attitude. If you are a bengali then its not that bad.

      Cons

      Well all the managers from Practice Heads to Team Leads are full of crap. Horrondous culture. They don't do anything to keep the employees happy but everything to ruin their career. They have too much favouritism towards those bengali folks since the managers and the group heads are bengali. It was all about putting their favourite employees on the silver plate while drawning the others in the mud. Plenty of immature bullying that often comes off as cartoonish, be it TLs or even Practice Heads. I am assuming they need to layoff such managers, clean off the middle managers to create a good environment in the organisation. Till then avoid it like a plague
