very few people are supportive, managers are good, try to understand other's problem.
Dislikes
Culture is very bad, I have faced discrimination and used to favour those who used to work till late night, even though people come to office on time, and judge those who come on time and leave on time.
Didn't assign proper work and people use to avoid and isolate. Lot of groupism.
