Colleagues are good and very co-operative.
Dislikes
There is a lack of work-life balance, a poor work culture, and ineffective leadership management. While some managers are supportive, others practice excessive micromanagement. Leave approvals are rarely granted, and the work environment is highly demanding. Being on the bench puts you in the red zone, whereas being in a project offers job security.

No promotions. I have seen people waiting 8 years to be promoted.
No job security if you are on bench.
No good projects in infrastructure domain for career growth.
No skill development. No encouragement to develop cross domain skills.
Last but not the least, too much of favouritism based on region and language you speak. Atleast it was in my case.
