The brand name is well recognized when you move out of the company other than that I don't think anything is positive.

Dislikes

Compensation for the employees is very poor which is why most of employees tend to move out. Politics is a fashion in most of the accounts and we cannot do anything about it.

Dislikes

Appraisal is bad. So joining with low salary does not help much in the long run, better to switch.
