      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Salary payments always done in time

      Cons

      Poor benefits designed to satisfy only bare minimum legal requirements, basic health insurance. Basic salary is 60% of total package so terminal benefits are low. Lack of leadership and progression transparency

You have raised several important concerns about feeling unheard, limited room for alternative approaches and a culture that did not feel people centred.

      Pros

      Interesting projects with a great culture and technical knowledge base. Good work life balance. Good opportunities to work on varied projects and gain valuable experience.
