Programme Coordinator - Tata Consultancy Services limited.
I joined expat.com on 11 December 2014.
Excellent work life balance - Extremely diverse environment of both local and internationals - Travel around the country is fun, easy and affordable with many hidden gems - Progressive economy and ecosystem - Tech Culture is huge and lends plenty convenience - BONUS ! I had an excellent boss and friendly accepting team - Safety and security is taken seriously - Modern housing is available - Affordable standard of living.
Separation by class, race and ethnicity is prevalent - Day light robbery by local merchants (over pricing for foreigners) - Extreme poverty at every corner - Housing is not always affordable.
The beautiful beaches - High end restaurants and resorts - Vibrant night life - Adventure sports - Really diverse population - History - Architecture around the city - Safe
Its a fairly expensive place to live - Encountered a lot of closed minded locals - struggled to integrate in the culture from perception that I was there to take their jobs - Public Transport system that is extremely slow.
