    Great company, tough times. Overall it was a pleasure working at RI.
    The good thingsGreat projects, positive experiences with supervisors, had the opportunity to learn and grow exponentially. Exciting collaborations with some of the best companies around the world.
    The challengesThe pandemic had its inevitable effect on the firm, leading to financial and manpower challenges. Project managers sometimes agree to unreasonable timelines. Some friction between departments. Nothing too serious.

    Great company but very low management and salary
    The good thingsFriendly, understanding, approachable mentors
    The challengesTechnically, average salary but always late/delayed and they only give you half of your basic salary, the rest, they will have to give to you in installment.

    Fun workplace
    The good thingsthere are few stressful times but as you'd expect from a great company. although you can grow here as a professional, your experiences would be limited to high rise buildings, but all in all, your personal growth here will be helpful
    The challengesthe company is understaffed in comparison with the project they are handling, nevertheless, it is still expected from a company. there's really not much to say but the stress sometimes will eat you. but other times, it is fun working there.
