Likes

...m a part of paramilitary force and got a golden opportunity to serve my country. My job is full secure and no complaint about salary. Surrounded environment is So nice for family. Airport sector provides us lots of good experiences.

Dislikes

The worst thing which I felt there is no work and time balance. The second thing there is no single day off not in seven days but it one or two months u got it means u r lucky. Third promotion opportunity is zero in this field.

Job security is excellent, overall salary structure is good

Dislikes

Promotion aspects is very dim, no proper policy for promotion, person who enter as a sub inspector level are getting only one promotion during the entire service

Good salary package with accomodation,conveyance,medical allowances,childern education etc.this is industrial security so working areas are airports and big industries.

Dislikes

Long duty hours,night shifts,strict discipline with punishments,at some places except duty hours must join regimental duties.maximum time you have to spent very far from your hometown.means it is a central paramilitary force so very less chance to get posting near your home town so hard to manage mostly for ladies staff without any family assistance.married women cannot live with there kids if she has not any family support.if both husband and wife in cisf than forget about to live with your kids.well maximum toughness is from constable to inspector level.but if you joined as a gazzeted rank which starts from assistant commandant.than may be your life will be a bit easier.mostly everything related to duty will change means you can escape from night duty or long duty hours even not any extra fatigue.but yes kids and posting issues are same in this level.
