Dislikes

Salary hike its depend not on work based only on exam based. Where people won't get time to prepare or take those exam. And those exam its not fully legitimate. In office mid of city have drawback like zero transportation, poor canteen and vechicle parking issues. In case of my project its good to learn and grow but have bad work life balance because of poor metric in time calculation for tasks.
