...rantee about the 9 hours of shift but will never be able to leave after 9 hours. Working here needs competitive salary but will not be provided that and will deduct way more than being given to you in hand, if you have no personal life then please opt for McDonalds.

Too much pressure and demotivating work environment. Bosses do not understand individual challenges and blame for every task. You would end up receiving all the blames if anything goes wrong but no appreciation for good work done. No acknowledgement of long working hours.
