Job security. Good work environment. Average salary hike and bonus for this particular safety associate role. Employee value is less.

There are seriously lot of politics and management doesn't know whats going on with employees. Employee is not given any value only client gets the value and work load is heavy. Ample on the job training was not given and everything is always on rush. Employee benefits are no way near to new joinees.

Nothing. Only the number of leaves or perks are good but that depends on your manager who would only give them to their favourite “team member”

Dislikes

Work life balance does not exist here. Infeasible targets are being expected in a peanut salary. Managers don’t really listen to your concerns and want to keep work as your first priority. Targets are not achievable within the designated duration and you are expected to complete them without providing any appreciation let alone compensatory hours or overtime.
