Principal is a company of great integrity and ethics. They invest in all their reps and give them the necessary tools to exceed.

Cons

*Old and Outdated Technologies used *Hard to find workers with their stale skill requirements *There are no mandatory certification required for Promotion etc so most of the times people get promoted without earning the knowledge. *Managers talk mostly on negative points during individual meetings. *RIS-ITES department has been doing 22 hours of Overtime every month from past 2 years. *There are lesser acknowledgement for hard work. *Management tends to reward people who act like news-reporter and tell them things related to 'who's talking what about manager'. *HR department act like dummy, barely a time I can remember when HR worked with authority. *Skip meetings are discussed openly with Leaders/Managers with clear information on who said what etc...
