Pros

-Above average remuneration due to the bonus payout, hourly rate for overtime is attractive -Good training ground for employees to work for other companies

Cons

-Ops are suffering heavier workload with recent policies that make it worse. Fatigue after work is getting more and more common and frequent overtime can take a toll on health. -Rewards are pathetic for Ops, even stopped giving out groceries voucher which was a norm some time back -Work life balance is not possible in operations due to the shift system. The 8 hour shift pattern makes it worse as the arrangement is such that regular weekend off occurs every four months or so. -No company transport arrangements after hours and expect employees to have their own arrangements. One options for those who don't drive or ride is a costly cab ride with 50% surcharge. Having company transport for shift staff is common among companies and I wondered why there isn't any especially more and more trainees are entering the company. -Very competitive environment, some got promoted due to their eloquence rather than the skills and having the leadership qualities. - Have to spend additional commuting time due to its location
