Cons
1. One man handling the effective execution from top to bottom. Thus worsening the priority of project scheduling. No EFFECTIVE manager or other executive person, thus there is no team/project management. 2. No peer learning due to whatsoever reason. 3. Lack of knowledge and inclination to the state-of-the-art advancements of industry. 4. Risk management is solely on discretion. In essence, pitfall is covered when one falls in pit. 5. Compensation and resource (trade fund) allocation not par with industry standards. No scope for new entrant to earn due to limited resource allocation. 6. Strict working hours. Quite likely your salary will be cut if you read a printed research paper. Even lunch time is deducted daily. 7. No effort to enhance office ambience, lifestyle or culture. Research analysts sit in basement where no mobile network gets coverage round the clock. The company proudly claims not to have an HR personnel.
