...tion with your boss your job role & hardwork /dedication has nothing to do here. Management do not work on maximizing business / revenue but meetings are held with top management for employee salary & manpower deduction. ( worse management & HR policies) Not a single benefits , only 2 lakh mediclaim ( parents not including) . people are leaving this company rapidly. There is no value to your skill & talent here ( you need godfather here for survival) labour Union is here. No standard salary bracket here executive & even AM get same salary as of officer / jr. Officer / operator. now onwards promotion for manager will be given on basis of car parking slot available at site since parking inside company allowed only for manager , you might thing this as weired policy but its true. Do not join this company blindly think twice about your future plans. You may re verify above feedback from any employee by calling on number 02066739411 there is many more to tell..
