Pros

- Decent salary - Some (very little) stock options and equity - Nothing much more.

Cons

- Extreme, extreme, extreme bureaucracy - US Team makes no decisions, whatsoever. Goes through bureaucratic process that takes months - Only people from India can thrive. If you are not from India, they get rid of you. Racism.
