Company's policy for employees' care. Overall work culture is very good. It will inculcate a sense of pride while working at BCCL.

Dislikes
Promotions and compensation. There is so much disparity in compensation. for the same work profile some is getting x amount and someone is else is getting 4x amount. Lots of preferential treatment in fixing compensation and promotions. You have to be someone's (the one who matters) favorite, otherwise you will be stagnant. The work pressure is also very-very high.

Times Group is most ruthless in its approach towards business. They firmly believe in quantity over quality and run the operations in that manner. If you are looking for a satisfying journalism career, please don't think of applying here (at least in the magazine division Worldwide Media) They have been unscrupulous, indifferent anddisplaying utmost apathy towards employees especially during the COVID-19 crisis....Read More

It is all depends on higher management, what they feel or believe they pass on to their subordinates and so on.
When they want people should learn, few learning and skill development workshop organised
when they want to reduce cost every one run to reduce cost
when they want to increase revenue every one try to get revenue.
Dislikes
They don't have the growth mindset.
thinking process is just to reduce cost only.
From last many years they stopped many editions and not even try to increase their circulation or no. of editions or even not a single new plant opening.

Appraisal and promotion is not based on performance. Its always like “my promotion is due”. Your salary, benefits, work profile, objective and related things purely depends on company owner and their thought process. If you are contributing more than the expected, beyond your capabilities, thn also you will not get anything because company don’t believe in retaining people but hiring people at higher salary thn yours....Read More

The company has a policy to harrass the employees, if you make smallest mistake the VP forces you to give a treat to the whole floor, it was such a situation where now whoever brought samosas to office everyone came to finance department to ask who made mistakes. It is humiliating to work here
