...il Ltd., I appreciate the dynamic work environment and opportunities for growth. However, the salary compensation is relatively low compared to the demanding nature of the role, which can sometimes be a challenge given the long hours and high expectations. Balancing these aspects can be demanding but also fosters resilience and adaptability.
