No Pros but Only Cons

Cons

I was part of GSS R2R team. Worst politics ever seen in this team. Both Managers behaviours are very bad. Higher management, head and Hrs are not taking actions also. Because of them multiple team mates left team. They are not supportive, always demotivating. I will suggest not to join this team.
