Higher Salary & Benefits, Excruciating Work and Night Shifts with no personal Life left
Pros: One of the best brands to work. For a support engineer, you get one of the highest salary packages compared to other counterparts in the support line of business. Free food and cabs round the clock. Niche colleagues who are experts in their domain and are very friendly, always jump out of their seats to help and assist you.
Cons: Asks for full time dedication to night shifts and long oncall hours. Pretty much no life balance with people who work general shifts. The managers are almost always pushy (but you might be lucky if you get a good team with helpful mates). End of the day, you are left with a fat bank balance, week and exhausted health with life sucked out of you, and almost no time to spend all that money you accumulated, and detached social circle.
