GetSetFly Media Junior Researcher Reviews

Likes

4 years experience in GetsetflyMedia I have been working in the company since last 4 years. I joined as an editor and I have managed a team of 4 people for one of their YT channels. I never thought I could lead a team and scale from an editor to a team lead. This was only possible because I was given the required environment, mentorship and space to enhance my skills. I joined in with a low salary but in just 1 year my salary tripled because here there is a “High Performance High Growth Policy”. This company is very serious about this. They would discuss a goal with you very transparently and offer a hike to complete it. The hike would then directly depend on the performance and not time period. Hence I have seen many cases wherein people have gotten 10-15k hike in just 3 months if they were able to achieve their goals. And of course the exact opposite thing happens with people who are not a culture fit to the organisation. Culture is another main principle. Members are briefed about how - Trust, Honesty, Loyalty to Team and Excellence are the pillars of the team during their induction round or monthly meets and any person who isn’t a fit, is political, two faced and or insecure of others success is identified quickly. They are made aware of their actions and if not fixed, are terminated. This is exactly why I love the vibe of Getsetfly Media and you can see some hate comments here too. It’s a pretty big office and trust me, I go to any room, social media, editing, researching, finance, people are really amicable, nobody has any personal agendas. We all sit and have lunch together at 1.30 including Gaurav Sir and Nikita Ma’am. I remember once I was feeling stressEd and I just told Nikita ma’am that can I work tomorrow as I am not feeling like working today. I was very scared because let’s face it, this isn’t even a “real mature” reason. But she agreed to it and sweetly told me no problem, Creative Block is a real thing. Basically you just have to talk to them transparently and they will help you out....Read More

Trying to improve employees who do not perform well. I feel this sometimes burdens other performing team member. This happened with me once when 2 team members were poor performers and I had to complete their work. I think giving them 2 weeks is enough to judge them. This is my personal opinion. Also since this is a media company, sometimes because of trending news and uploads, I have to wait till 7.30ish but the vibe after 6.30 when everybody leaves is even better. Once I stayed till 10pm and Nikita Ma’am ordered pizza for all of us and we had a small party, while uploading a podcast. I...Read More

The leaders here are very transparent and sweet. Trust me you just have to discuss your issue with them be it anything and everything in the world. I still remember the night i shared my family issue with Gaurav sir and he has advised me for 2 hours listened everything and helped me financially too to cope up from problemz. I have 5friends working in media industry and they have no proper timings, boss give curses but here the environment is very differnt and genuine. Since they have a strictly great culture policy, thats why here the entire team feels like one big team! Also since they are very skilled editors here, i got to learn a lot. I knew only basics of AE but now i have become proficient. I love the work life balance culture of the company. Ofcourse since they have youtube channels timmings are sometimes stretched but Nikita Maam personally comes and asks us to leave when there is no immediate submission. Even if we say we want to compete and go she sweets says if there is a requirement she would ask us to stay and finish. But today you can go. Has happened with me a lot since i was very slow at editing in the beginning and i used to feel insecure about it. Love the parties at getsetfly too. It’s very intimate and close with games that bridge differences and brings people from different departments closer...Read More

Since its a big office, the fridge and microwave is placed in a different room which is very far from editing room so we cant use it much. Company should take action on some low performers. They give too much extra time I believe.

Some fellow people there. But If I could give this place a zero, I totally would but one stars will have to suffice for now.

Nikita thakur will lecture on "backstabbing and office politics is strictly prohibited" and goes on to do the same. Hiring people and firing them is mass numbers in a month and no work life balance. There's no skill development factor here. You either pick up things on on your own or you don't. The politics is the worst part here. They have a "100% mandatory transparecy policy". Both parties are required to be honest and it's a point from their rule book, along with being a team play and amicable. But do they and they will treat you like a gun practice target and bid you bye. All in all, Nikitha Thakur is incredibly petty (think Regina George from Mean Girls) and never practices what she preaches...and she runs a million subscribers worth youtube channel along with a handful of others in other names that "educate". They are clout seekers, looking to print money through brand sponsorships. That's not bad at all. But if they treat their editors with due respect, they'll last....Read More

The culture and the work environment of the company is very safe and they are committed to their vision and values which are honesty, loyalty to team performance, trust and excellence. They have zero tolerance and have taken strong actions against team members bullying others, doing office politics, groupism and spoiling work environment. The office culture has become even more clean nowadays and is safe for all members to express, learn and grow. I have never seen such good culture and people in any company. Every work day feels like a new adventure to grow and build better relations with team members. It matters most for me because your work environment is a very important determinant of your success anywhere. Company is also committed to employee's financial growth and I'm happy with the hikes I've been offered. I plan to work and grow with Getsetfly for many more years......Read More

1. Oven laga do... 2. Sometimes company tolerates people with bad attitude or behavior a little more than they should. I mean, nobody can teach someone basic etiquettes regarding how you should behave when you're working in a professional setting. 3. As the company is growing, they're constantly trying out new experiments. I personally like this as there's lot to learn. But some people might like a more static environment....Read More

There is no proper work schedule. 9.30 - 6.30 is the working hours but they will make you sit till 8. The Manager and CEO plans each and everything, what to say and whom to say. They will appreciate you for the work you did but they will always try to say some negative things to make sure you are under confident and only listen to them because what they say is logical they think but they aren't. Always the Editor/Leader is at the fault of any mishap. If you don't have work and you sit idle, its your fault because you cant sit idle, you are getting paid so you cant sit free. You have to keep doing some or the other thing but they wont tell you what should you do in the free time. Mostly all the PC that is used to work are slow and incapable of doing good editing. You cant preview what you have edited and because they are incapable of editing, the management wont understand and will ask you to provide excellent output on the potato computer and make sure you wait till late and finish your work. People who have no authority to say anything to you, will come to your face, say whatever and leave. You cant to anything because the CEO is always backing them. No matter how good are you at your work, they will manipulate you and make you feel you are not smart enough. You might come across INCENTIVES schemes and a hike after every 6months or based on your performance might get after 3 months of joining.But it is totally false, its a HOAX.If you keep getting Incentives every month,they wont give you on the 3rd month and will give you any dumb reasons for not getting incentive s.They wont give you hike in 6months.there are employees who are underpaid and still not given hike after 10 months. The Leader tries his best so that each employee is happy and can be motivated to work in a grateful manner but at the end the MANAGER. She will come and spread soo much negativity and ask the leader to make sure he does more EXTRA work. They have NO knowledge of what is Production, About Storyboarding. They are Biased towards Government but they will say you they are NEUTRAL. They say they respect all religion but they reject candidates who are MUSLIMS. Conclusion: They will provide you the work after lunch time and ask you complete before you leave They talk about culture and environment, while they are the one who are good at back bitching and spreading negativity They wont hike your salary in 6 months Those who have NO knowledge of anything, will teach you how to do. CEO's Dad has worst attitude if you don't provide the work under heavy pressure he will abuse you behind your back. A Graphic Artist or a Video Editor needs a Creative Freedom but they wont allow those thing and instead will be asked to follow a list If you are asked to work under SOCIAL MEDIA department, you wont know when you are going home. There's no growth in terms of salary, experience because in the end you will be ordered to do what they say and not what you bring to the table THE MANAGEMENT is the BIGGEST MANIPULATOR....Read More

I joined GetsetflyMedia 2 years ago, solely to work with Gaurav Sir as i developed a passion for Science just because of his videos. Things i like about company - 1- They has always been very clear. Honestly there was a time where my performance had gone bad a lot. They told it to me very maturely instead of firing directly like inmy previous company did. 2- I had a personal problems due to which i needed finances, Gaurav sir personally gave me 2 lakhs loan and helped me get out of the mess by contacting with police and fixing mine issue. I have worked in 3 companies before and no company owner every helped so much. 3- They work on the culture of the organisation a lot. They are ready to take action on the best performers too if they are coming to office with a wrong mindset, want to do politics. 4- since they manage many yt channels so they keep inventing new things create new departments and many times they are many opportunities for the right people. I personally got 1 hike for 10k directly in 3 months just for setting a dept. matlab if you want to grow very fast and have the right skills and mindset, you can directly discuss with them and they will create a plan for you with goal with salary hike. also i personally like the incentive thing here.. many people get 10 - 10,000 only in 1 month to complete a monthly goal 5- Timming. i have worked in 3 companies before and honestly there is no timing in media field. in one company they made me work from 9-10pm. Here but only when trending videos is to be edited we stretch till 9 other wise 7.30 is max timing in which we used to get free....Read More

1- the company has strict performance and incentive and growth policy. You will be given a lot of time and training ( 4-5 months) but you have to become independent editor very soon. Metrics and goals are given to you for every video which shows your growth as editors. 2- Sometimes we have to edit without shoot when we have to edittrending video which is little difficult and taken time to edit me for personally. 3- Not a dislike for me i like growing so... but since they manage many yt channels they keep trying new things for many channels so many depts to 4- many times we plan to celebrate a festival or function but because of work pressure all team members cant be free together so only some enjoy and many work. would love if we could have more function in which all members are present and enjoying....Read More
