No salary Hikes, No gifts, No promotions, Individuals favored by managers receive more advantages. The longer you stay lesser will be paid. Some leaders are subpar, constantly introducing their relatives and spouses without any need in requirements and prior experience as well, if they won't perform well leads should handle their work pressure. ..
