I just pitied a friend of my who joined airtel customer care in november under an outsourcing company called Simbanet DC. They were promised that they would be formaly confirmed to be airtel staff in three months under new management called SPANCO an indian company. So it hit them yesterday the 25th Jan 2011 wen they were given contracts showing that they hv to be reviewed again so a probation of 6 months is required n in that case their salary is 15,300.
You kno nothing kills an employee moral than this .. 6 months with no guarantee of reviewal of salo.. Hell i think it inhuman. U cannot pay the tea girl the same amount u pay ur customer support team. And u can not call ur Genetor to fagia under ur desk if he earns 10k more than u. I mean.. common airtel.. INFACT UM gonna make this a topic just now.
Dave, 6 months probation is quite normal in Kenya. I've been through that 3 times. You think it's inhuman? Your friend accepted the salary, right? If your colleague feels shortchanged, it's time he quit. You know the dynamic of a capitalist economy, right? -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Damn!!
