1- Excellent WLB compared to amazon
2 - Good pay and its all cash! Not sure if they compete with amazon though
3 - Free food, office parties, sports tournaments, gym, basketball... etc
Cons
1 - Lack of technical learnings and work was ops heavy
2 - Middle managers can be bad
3 - could cause a dent in your career because of lack of learnings.I saw people moving to join as SDE 2 in amazon/msft or some no name company
