.... Also the entire work culture is great where teamwork is given utmost priority. Talking about job security, there was zero lay off even in covid times with no pay cut for people at junior and moderately senior level.

Salary - Excellent

Sometimes the technology you work on can become monotonous but that can always be worked out by discussing it with your manager. Another negative aspect is the lack of documentation which sometimes is difficult for newbies.

Here teams are sub divided in such a way that you only work on some specific skills and not allowed to learn others task/process easily, whereas in market requires multiple skills which is integral thing of all the sub teams. Here contractual folks are not allowed to participate in lean or other major projects. Only used for data clean-up.
