They will credit salary without any delay

Dislikes

Compare to direct employees, secondment employees will not get much benefits. Will not get proper response from Admin team and their mobilization is also not upto thier standard, instead of booking from nearest airport they will ask us to travel additional 4 to 8 hrs to reduce flight cost. Compensation for offshore is also very less, they have single standard for site peoples, even if we go to onshore or offshore, their standard remains same.
