I would like to tell you that here you can learn about things, which means how things should be done or which things are important to consider before working because everyone here wants to be bossy and supreme, so here you will learn how you can work under such pressure. Here, people have such designations that they don't deserve. After all, owner Ma'am Shoubari is so helpful; she helps every single person of this orgainsation and well-being.

Salary - Good

Dislikes

People who hold power but don't deserve to be here are misusing their rights in different ways. They always try to make the other person (junior to them) feel low and inferior. Mobilisation is one of the big problem here, but again, I am emphasising that the owner helps every person; you just need guts to put things in front of her.

Skill development - Poor

Compensation might not please everyone but at the beginning of your career, when you are trying to establish your feet in the profession, compensation must not be the first thing in your mind.
