... so happy I have got an PG certification from IIT, which I'm currently pursuing. I have got a good salary hike and will also be receiving my Esops, which I'm really looking forward. The upskilling program from the best trainers was really amazing. The Management is very supportive and extends helps whenever required. Great opportunity to create a path on Data Engineering domain.
