The regular office timings are 9:30 am to 5:30 pm and all weekends are off unlike banks where only 2^nd and 4^th weekend is off. The workload is also less as compared with the banks. The branches do have fixed targets but they are not linked to salary, that is, your salary won’t be impacted in case you do not achieve the targets.
