Pros

This company refers themselves to a leadership development company and in most cases, that could not be more accurate. Since joining this team, I have grown more as a professional than I ever thought possible with the open-feedback environment and CARE model.

Cons

Leadership isn't always in tune at the field level. They rely heavily on their RVPs instead of the actual people doing to the work. It has created for increased goals during a pandemic and increasing attrition throughout the years

Business Outlook

Pros

1. Good work environment 2. Job Security

Cons

1. Not recommended for Freshers since they don't provide any better training. 2. Work based on the project since it's a service based company. l'll get better work if you have assigned to good team. 3. Salary is not as per industry standard. 4. Good team environment but don't have better higher management.
