1) As I was a NICSI employee and its on contract job so salary structure is very poor although we can get more salary in private company than NIC Nicsi employee. 2) Job is on work-order basis so related department always delay the payment and it could be delay up to 2 to 8 months also so it mentaly disturb the employee sometime so definatly this is the area where NIC and department need to work together.
