Nothing. Just the salary hike will be good and nothing

Dislikes

Pathetic Management. Do not join this organisation if you want mental peace. Managers are toxic and terrible. They are like Thekedars who are greedy for sales and don’t know how yo behave with employees. No work life balance. You have to work extra hours and even on weekends. If sales not done they will insult you and treat you terribly and also ask to work on week offs. They don’t have leads at all. They just fool people and nothing else. Managers are pathetic and unprofessional
