    Best Workplace if you want to initiate your career
    The good thingsThe induction days went well. the HR was so cooperative and be there when on first few days. Which was good because as new member, you still need guidance about the overall run of the company.
    The challengesas part time worker, it was quite challenging to be part or team up with the full time workers. there was a gap and you would feel unwanted and unwelcomed. part time worker also not given a work space to prepare before I can deliver my lecture.
