Pros

i am reading some reviews saying us trip is a pro. grow up. if you think us trip is a justification for joining company than you need to rethink your career goals. i honestly can't find a single pro to write here.

Cons

oh where do i begin. if you are aiming for core and think ase is a core role after their ppt before placement season, please read the following: "Hi my name is xyz, thanks for calling, what can i assist u with?" i bet u've heard this before - call centers. if that's the role ur looking for after clearing gate, getting into an iit, being a matka(mtech), go ahead and join. if u are looking for core, do NOT join. you are going to be stuck in a support role for a while repeating the line i wrote above. to get in other roles(not really core anywhere in bengaluru office), u have to work WITH the title of a support engineer, juggling both support and semi-core work. you are going to do a mediocre job in your projects because u have to be on support even on the time allotted to projects(customers keep coming back, manager assigns u pointless cases). and if u want to get out of the company.. good luck finding a core role with the precious "support engineer" title. it is a struggle. edg brochure reads like u'll be working on cutting edge technologies. the realities is u'll be doing call center work even if u don't know/aren't internsted in matlab. u'll be supporting service companies like tcs(there are core companies too). first of all - SUPPORT, secondly - for service commpanies like TCS. additionally, the pay is abysmal for postgraduates from top-end colleges. don't undervalue urself. you can definitely do better than this pay.
