Job Security, work life balance are two main factors to stay long at this organization which takes a big headache out of our mind. Next thing is the learning opportunities, which are immense and one can easily switch from one field/technology/Domain to another. And forgot, mentorship is good and the support from the seniors is good as well.

The salary growth and bonus is the only weak point. It's actually not that bad, but when the organization is competing with Big4, it lacks in the finance section.
