But, surprisingly, the company had a good going on one of the most important employee parameters, salary. With a score of 7.2, it bagged #3 position on the salary front. Despite this, salary and compensation emerged as one of the top concerns, with 46.2% of the employees attributing it as the reason for quitting.

In employee parameters like image (#16), job content (#17), people (#18) and training (# 9), it did not fare well.

Its time for the company to work out strategies for creating dynamic internal career growth opportunities for its employees.
