CONCLUSION
Firstly, it was a very good experience to work and learn with a world class for four weeks as it was my first step into the corporate world. When I saw my senior people doing each & every kind of work I came to know how much important is each & every work.

I also learned how much the values and culture of the organization impacts the employees productivity. Like here the seniors were approachable in nature, I felt an open culture. Many a times I felt people are not open to new ideas and they are resistant to change. I have gained some learning from every individual working here; it might be in terms of knowledge, skills, behavior or personal traits etc.
The present decade has witnessed revolutionary changes in the field of networking and internet. Keeping pace with the technological trend SOMA Networks provides plethora of services to its esteemed customers. Also with changing trend, there has also been a quantum increase in customer base. SOMA Networks is still No. 1 Company in Broadband wireless sector and it can continue to be the same with more innovations and better quality services.
