CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

innovating and training for newly graduated

Cons

management in the middle east (Iraq), Testing service to be specific are horrible, they are like mafia, cutting bonuses, no promotion, no justice. I have completed my FST of Step 2 over a year now and the manager refused to give promotion, eventually he accused me of something that led me to get fired, I talked to HR and his manager but no body helped. not to mention the commission they are receiving from local buyers to place teh order with them. total corruption.
