Office work culture in Kolkata

Hello Guys, I am working in MNC and due to project requirement need relocate to kolkata. I am from north. Please advice if its good to move to kolkata in terms of career growth. I have heard that there is no IT growth, not many tech companies there, only office politics and manager boot licking works in kolkata. Are managers in kolkata very laid back with bad behavior as compared to other cities? I have seen videos of hdfc how manager was trashing his team. I know kolkata is a sweet place with sweet welcoming people if not considering IT sector or other corporate sector. Corporate and IT sector are really frustrated because of work culture and low salary, no hike plus managers behavior. Most of the Bengalis move to other cities like Bangalore delhi and other parts of India because of this. These things I have heard from bengalis itself those who are now settled in north with handsome packages. Why bengalis move to other state. Is this all true? I am really concerned.

If you're open to trying something new and learning from a different culture, Kolkata could be a great experience.

Do some research on specific companies that interest you and talk to people who already work there. That will give you a better idea of what to expect.

In my Opinion Kolkata might not have the same level of IT growth as Bangalore or Delhi, it still offers opportunities. However, the work culture and management styles can vary. It's important to research specific companies and roles in Kolkata to make an informed d... see more

I’ve been working at a small startup for the past 3 years, with just 3 other employees and my boss. I sit right in front of her, and over time, we became close, almost like siblings. I automated a lot of my tasks, so my ... read more
