    Avoid this company at all costs!
    The good thingsCentral Location, friendly coworkers, forthnightly prayer sessions at HQ (good for Christians) as it is a faith-based organisation.
    The challenges- High turnover. Same job advertisements keep reposting. There is a reason why there is such high turnover. - Unprofessional behaviour by bosses and manipulative coworkers - No recognition for hardwork - Toxic work environment - Promoting people who are not deserving and overlook other staff who worked equally hard - Favourtism culture

    Double-Standard Treatment and Bad Management
    The good thingsConvenient working location and friendly colleagues from other divisions.
    The challengesWas not being added to the dept whatsapp group chat for 10 months though there were two former staffs who were straightaway added during their first week of employment. The organisation continues to retain an existing staff who often makes mistakes and this shows a very poor hiring practices. If you were not their favourite, they will forever outcast you and focus on their favourites.
