The only thing is we can get our salary on the first week of every month but their work culture is hectic. For NBA work they will make us stay up to 8 PM daily and we have to work on Sundays also without CCL or any leave benefits. HODs are very tuffest persons than chairman. They only makethe faculty members into hell.
