Pros

No need to work, just be good at politics. JG3s and above enjoy their jobs and perform all the hard work by working for 4 hours a day. Indian Leaders have ruined the culture and environment.

Cons

Every year reorg and reshape, Your full effort will go in just trying to save your job. Work can wait.
