KL University is good for beginners as they pay decent salary
Dislikes
Work Culture is very Poor. Poor Communication between the Departments especially when it comes to communication between Vijaywada (Parent campus) and Hyderabad. Your HOD will not help you in any situation and they have acquired an escape mechanism and in the end, will blame you for in case of any issue. Students are not given clear information and as there is not Grievance Handling department, so all the issues have to be dealt with by faculty. Faculties get stucked big problem because the administration does not give them any clear information but students will keep on asking the same from faculties No dedicated IT and ERP staff in Hyderabad Campus. Faculties have to do a lot of Administrative work (including IT help desk, ERP help desk, Student Registration, Advertisement for University etc) which consume a lot of time. They ruin your holidays, especially in Hyderabad Campus. 70% Sundays will be taken away by allocating you some academic and administrative role.
