Pros

Exposure to multi-vendor equipment Salaries are paid on time (exceptional cases of delay are bank related)

Cons

A super toxic environment, where the blame culture is high Zero care for employee welfare Non-existent HR as complaints raised are unlooked or given the silent discard Excessive cost cutting to the detriment of staff welfare Your LM has the final say even when you're right Excessive politics The culture and environment is such that your effort would go unrecognized even when your colleagues see you are critical to the business operation. You need to create a scene to management for such recognition Poor Pay that is not commensurate to your work output. Negotiate well at first because yearly salary reviews are nothing to write home about (degree holders get as low as N4,000 as a yearly salary review. laughable but true, some get nothing added). Drivers, support staff are treated without regard, human decency and respect KPI scoresheet is just for formality sake, the salary review never matches the scores in your KPI. No structured growth plan for employees

Pros

No matter how many years one spends here, one won't be able to come up with any pros of working here.

Cons

Employees recognition is essential for all employees. The upper management with an arrogant attitude must understand that. They are biased. They only recognize some employees, and others are forgotten. It was awful! The pay was also poor and not as per industry standards or rising inflation. Overall, my experience here was terrible. You can safely avoid it. BEWARE!
