While looking for a job, the thing we most often focus on is the take-home. It surely does matter the most. However, one of the most crucial factors which we repeatedly neglect is the work environment. A healthy, positive and cooperative environment is what enables the employee to hold on to the company and it further stimulates them to work harder. Moreover, most of us spend a huge amount of our time at our work places. The energies and the vibes at our work place definitely shape us and define us. A poor workplace not only hinders the productivity of the company but also cause stress and misery in the lives of the employees. On the other hand, positivity and zeal can accelerate the output and fertility of the company.
