There is a very good support system in place to skill up interested people on the latest technologies. Very good opportunities to learn and develop. Good work culture and management is transparent to the extent that is possible.

Skill development - Excellent

Dislikes

Salary is at decent and career growth is a little low paced. With the policy of role maturity, the promotion cycle is very long. So one might get stuck in a lower role if they join in the same role.

...you will come across all IT companies. Just learn to survive, upskill and excel. Do not depend on your job or salary, have multiple streams of income without moonlighting and switch jobs whenever you get a good opportunity. Work for your own success not for the company.
