A good place to work with smart and cooperative team for support available on 24/7 basis. The hardest part of the job is to check whatsapp and emails

- Every day is a busy day with customer handling on one hand and dealing with staff and other administrative issues on other hand. - Since most of the time is passed in customer dealing , handling their issues, response on emails or on phone. I learned to pay special attention to their grievances. Improve my listening skills to pay attention to every minor details that is given to resolve the issue. - I myself has introduced birthday celebration of employees with other management staff to motivate the lower grade staff. We have develped a culture where one can speak freely about work, about any issue he/she has with his colleagues or officers. - The hardest part of the job is to check whatsapp and emails in late hour of night specially in between 11Pm to 6am. -The most enjoyable part of the job is at the time of events like annual dinner, birthday celebration, Eid Milan or Independence day celebrations where one can speak freely with each other irrespective of his/her position. And other ocassion is at the time of filling Annual Performance when you have to choose between the Best. Having debates with the officers for filling A or B grades is the time when sometimes you have to listen to some very harsh things about yourself or even about each other just to prove that you are the best..

Pros

Good working team.

Cons

Medical Care, Availability on 24/7 basis.

Learning Unlimited

At PTCL you are never out of challenges for which you have to work out your own solution. If you have worked here then there is no place where you cannot work. One has to be on his toes to keep up with the pace of this organisation. The team members are supportive but at the same time other departments are giving you a challenge every now and then. Hardest part of this organisation, you cannot plan your day rather it is the day that unfolds to you and you have to manage it accordingly. If you are good at work, you are acceptable, if you are not then you have to start working.

Pros

Free PTCL products, free medical facility for family and parents

Pressure less working environment with strategic flaws

A day is normally associated with development of various plans and forecasts. Dealing business cases for continuance of business with defaulted parties Management is mostly unaware of directions and plans required to achieve unrealistic targets Co workers are cordial, professional however, unrealistic targets has effected their integrity Hardest part is to counter argue management decisions Most enjoyable part is the friendly environment to work in

Good and Competetive Working Environment

In fact, for the students of B.E. ELECTRONICS, the six weeks internship is a golden chance to develop and sharpen the capability and skills in the practical environment of different organizations. My reasons for doing the internship program in PTCL is to get first-hand knowledge about equipments and procedures used in the industry to improve my professional skills, because PTCL is the best organization indeed and cover all the basic departments for a student of Electronics and Telecommunication.
