Pros

Facilities are very good for employees. Good company for a long run as it offers stability (except IT Programmers). Good Work life balance.

Cons

No cons as such. But if you are part of their In-house development team as a trainee programmer you don't have much growth opportunities. But still, you will be paid well in the initial phase of your career, compared to other fresher programmers in Pune.

More competent mid-level management is needed

Pros

International company which allows you to connect and work with colleagues from all over the world.

Cons

This company needs to have a more open culture (to appreciate new ideas and talents from different company cultures) and learn to change it's old fashion mind set. SOME of the middle management needs great improvements in terms of integrity and ethics. I had my worst experience in this company working with a cannot-be-worse boss. I am wondering how come this company can keep people like this for such a long time. People in this company always complaining about lack of man power. However, to my opinion, there is still a lot of improvement space for working efficiency (both worker and process). Not much personal development opportunities.

Pros

Good company to work for and has a very good image in the global market. Most important thing is its a family own company and hence has lot of values for society, culture, guiding principles etc. I love to retire in this company.

Cons

nothing much to say .. further development opportunities are limited as I have already worked for 18 years in this company.
