Its coal tar distillation unit with continuous operation
Company is situated in a very remote location of Bellary district of Karnataka. Higher management don't know about ground level situation. They are recruiting senior people like heads of operations, technical, safety literally don't have basic knowledge about the field. They are only busy in buttering the management people and blamejuniors to safeguard their job. If you don't have any other option then only you can think about this company....Read More

On time Salary. 2nd and 3rd Saturday offs Good townships HR department has Improved than before People are given good joining salary
The micromanagement, the thing which destroys the organisation from within. Majority of managers are demotivated and dis interested and have no trust on team. The leadership program was a good approach by the company took but is a doesn't seem to make a difference as managers have not changed a bit and just taken the program for tour. The majority of the key top management have come to Epsilon just to spend their last years of working life. Promotions are only given to MANAGERS FAVOURITES. Otherwise hike is below average for the rest. Young generation has very few to learn or innovate. Social life is really horrible as nothing is there for family time. People can come spend a year take the hike and move on to other job. God help Epsilon !!...Read More

I wanted to take a moment to express my appreciation for the work culture at Epsilon Carbon. Having been a part of this organization for 20 years, I have truly enjoyed the positive environment, supportive colleagues, and the strong sense of teamwork that defines our workplace.

The only thing I liked was that company provided townships where the price of rooms/flast was very less.
1. The Manager's are manipulative, they make you believe your request are under consideration but in reality will end up making decisions of thier choice. 2. The company culture is also bad, The HRs rather than encouraging people to participate in event/activities impose or force them to do so. 3. There is no work life balance if urmanager tells you to stay, you have to stay. 4. You can't take leaves whenever you want atleast I had to negotiate many times to even get my single leave approved, It's quite a hassle . 5. Nobody is ready to take responsibility, It's like they are sort of afraid even though there is job security. 6. The company spends a lot of money on promoting safety culture yet when one tried to spend time working on those, it is said by higher authorities not to spend too much time on them and do your usual work. 7. There is no healthy discussions to keep your point/ point of views, whatever is said by manager is the final word. 8. No professional behaviour by some Manager's. 9. A lot of Micromanagement. 10. A lot of Extra working hours you need to put whenever required and when you get Comp off again you have a battle ahead to get those comp off approved. 11 No hireachy system just everyone reporting to everyone, didn't quite understand ranking. 12 Salary is quite less compared to the work you have to put into. 13 Instead of promoting team work, manager tries to make you fight against each other....Read More

At beginning it was good later on true faces were reviled.
As a former employee, my experience with the HR team was far from positive. Their behavior was often rude, and they showed little interest in addressing employee concerns. Important queries were either ignored or handled with a dismissive attitude, which made it difficult to resolve even basic issues. The lack of professionalism andempathy from the HR team was one of the major reasons for my dissatisfaction with the company. HR plays a critical role in maintaining a healthy workplace, and this team unfortunately failed in that regard. I hope the organization takes steps to improve its HR department for the benefit of current and future employees....Read More

1) There is no peace of mind. 2) it's a mere clerical work especially in procurement which will get you no where in future. 3) unrealistic targets are set by Boss's without discussing with team and that is again implicated on the juniors. At the end of the day Junior is at fault and not that Boss who has committed falsely. 4) You can work overtime if the job demands but that will not be appreciated anywhere and you end up messing your personal well being which is of utmost importance. 5) If you tend to show inclination of sticking to the job due to any reason like location or family constraints then that is taken as a weak nerve and played around by boss. 6)You will feel that you are not worthy when all of the above things happen and this becomes torture and one will end up being miserable....Read More

- Labour policy is good - Yearly leaves are 38 i.e. better than industry average - Decent increment i.e. 8-10% - Working Hours is liberal, encouraged to work 9 hrs a day but if you lack working hours salary is still credited with full attendance - office location is very good - Friendly employees
- Reporting structure is not good. AGM is reporting to GM. Same family reporting is not good for learning - Frequent change in top leadership - LTIP is verbally committed to employees which is not provided so ethical issues are there.

Top management has very ambitious for expansion of the company. But Middle management not aligned and lack of clarity/ not empowered to take decisions. Heavy Bossism, you are not allowed to think, just do what they say.
Employees must be empowered to think, innovate. High retention and Frequent changes in top management changes the whole scenario after the new leader takes charge.

opportunity to work, work freedom and multitasking. Growing company.
weak management, organizational structure still under development, corporate policy is not firm and not properly enforced. Unprofessional management with lack of clarity on chain of command, role and responsibility, one man show type organization, autocratic leadership and lack of maturity of top management.
