On average, good job security, good work-life balance. OK pay generally. May be able to work with newer technologies.

Could be political depending on teams and your manager. Little diffence on pay between lazy people and hardworking ones. If you are expecting your contribution is being rewarded, this is not a place for you.

I did not receive training there. There will be promotion chances but I did not strive for it. It has the best snack bar in Central

Boring work. You will have to answer phone calls from clients all day, helping them with technical problems they are faced with their terminal.
