Factory environment where NO personal choices are considered.. Pathetic way of inducing knowledge which is only for company's benefit by believing in lame ideology like EVERYONE HAS TO BE GOOD AT WHAT COMPANY IS OFFERING rather cater to individuals best.. Military training where concepts are forcibly induced with fool-proof mechanisms.. High irrelevance in what employees are trained for and the job they are posted.. No domicile considerations too.. Pathetic salary package for the designation offered
