Compensation is good for contract employees,no guarantee on job.Lots of dumping the products by labours,to complete the metrics whether it's PVR or RCA in one location finds multiple products with irrespective size of products finds mess & difficulty in retreiving the products. Thus the shelf life of product becomes bad / pilferage hence not able to sell to customer.
