Likes

Against many popular opinions, except coming across a few toxic individuals here and there, my overall experience has been an exceptional one. The leave policy is great in comparison to what I have experienced in IBM and Oracle Financials previously. The opportunities are immense and the compensation is above my expectations in comparison with IBM and Oracle Financials.

Salary - Excellent

Dislikes

Promotions above manager levels get difficult to get sponsors. Work does get exhaustive at times and one needs to find balance between what we want vs what is available.
