Ideal place to start your career. Not ideal for career growth.
Pros: - Diverse work environment. Not discrimination when it comes to age, religion or gender. 
- The majority of my former colleagues were approachable, open-minded and helpful.
- My managers were understanding when it comes to personal matters. I never felt scared or nervous to explain my side.
- Lots of free learning materials and extra curricular activities.
-Never late when it comes to payout of salaries and bonuses. HR responds to queries immediately.
-Good work and life balance. You have time to work on a freelance job or hobby.
Cons: - Lower salary compared to other companies.
- Slow career growth. Promotion comes rare even if you do a great job for years, with great client feedback. Worse, sometimes the questionable people get promoted to a higher band.
- Bureaucracy leads to slow dissemination of information and decision making.
- The expertise of some SME's are disappointing.
