The brand name, exposure to variety of work and social status that one carries working with the organisation is unmatched.

Job security - Good

Dislikes

Poor implementation of everything, over ambitious management, disconnect between the lower and higher level employees, fear-driven work instead of value-driven work (has its exceptions in some outstanding officers), slow career growth, poor appraisals, no reward for sincere work and horrible work life balance. Over a period of time,employees get used to this lifestyle and hold the job too close to the heart without thinking adequately about its impact on the family and social life. The higher the rank, the dearer the job gets and lessens the ability of the employee to identify black from white. The employee thinks everything is "Grey" and expects everything and everyone around him to be just this shade....Read More

It is a premier investigating agency in India. I am having proud to be a part of it. CBI mainly dealt with the corruption cases and other high profile cases assigned to investigate either by Central Govt., State Govt., Supreme Court or High Courts. Investigating officer is free for investigation under supervision at different level i.e. branch, zone or Head Quarter. Salary is as per the norms of Central Government plus medical, house rent or house etc....Read More

Only one set back is that we will get career growth as per the norms/terms and conditions laid down by Central Government.

Work Details

My work is highly challenging as I have to investigate the criminal cases. People had a lot of faith in Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). We as a team work hard to nab the real culprit through evidences. We learn new things in solving every case.

Career Advice

a procurement specialist

Am I on right path?

Right after my BCom, I took a service advisor role at Honda for ₹7K due to urgency. Later, I moved to a gas station for ₹10K, handling all kinds of work beyond office tasks. My breakthrough came when I joined as an order management specialist in Bangalore for ₹22K. To advance, I self-learned Excel, Power BI, coding, and automation, earning a specialist role. I also completed my MBA in Logistics & Supply Chain online. After four years, my salary reached ₹35K. With management’s support, I transitioned to a procurement specialist role at ₹45K + ₹11K (night shift), later growing to ₹58K + ₹11K by optimizing processes. Now, I’m preparing for an HR round and planning to ask for a 55% hike. Am I on the right track? How can I accelerate my career growth?
