KARACHI:

Despite high levels of dissatisfaction with their current compensation levels, most Pakistani urban professionals appear to think that their lives are better than their peers and a plurality remained optimistic about economic growth in the country, according to a recent Rozee.pk/Yougov poll.

While only 6% of the respondents to the survey said they were highly satisfied with their compensation packages, over 45% felt that they were better off than most of their peer group.
