Business Outlook

Pros

It's a well established company where things are setup properly, staff welfare are being taken care, nice environment. Friendly people .

Cons

Too bureaucratic as approval taking long and not effective. Need to improve on staff training plan and career development plan Does not reward existing staff as much as new comers as often new comers with lesser experience come in at higher salary than existing staff due to low raise % despite good performance and rating ( to be fair to whetherford, most company have this same issues)
