Nothing since day one
Everything starting from Office Politics Every single human being at KOTAK EDUCATION FOUNDATION is working to pull down his/her colleagues. Efficiency of a Person is ignored while the less efficient ones are respected and given eternal chances. Currently they are just on HIRE AND FIRE mode. Hiring individuals for 6 months and then firing. Worst company to be part of. The leaders are worst. They would try to show sympathy of situations but that is just the trick to demean you and throw you out of the job Trust issues Worst place....Read More

Good work environment and culture in the beginning. Top management of old times were good and transparent. Policies were friendly and appraisals were fair. Less politics in the beginning with friendly atmosphere with freedom to express. On job training amply provided with good career growth.
Being an NGO they don't have empathy for their own employee. People with severe personal problem are treated with contempt. No support by the current management and HR team. Lot of politics now but no growth in career. Work stagnant with too much pressure to perform. Workwise less of an NGO culture and more of a corporate culture.
My work had lot of innovations which was very much accepted. Very interesting work with training at a later Stage.

Timely salary Supportive manager ( for my intervention) Nothing more than that.
The organisation is confused that it is an NGO or corporate. Appraisals are poorly handled. No personal growth nor skill development. KRA's are purposely made in such a way by the management so that there is very less or no chances of growth to the employees. Too much of expectations in low salary. Unnecessary field visit which have no impact.

I really enjoyed my work. Colleagues and other staff is very helpful. From senior to ground level all staff was in good condition. Most employees are worked here from 5 to 10 yrs above. So it was good culture till January 2022. But after February 2022 management gone mad.
Really there 3 CXO level management team, what are doing, sometimes feel total lying to people this management team. Mostly resigned because of politics. And favouritism bad culture. Specially unnati intervention CEO, he know only number, he is not employee oriented person or dont know what is ground level employees approach. And with new HR head, total lier. There are for above manager can do wfh, for other no....Read More

I have served for 8 years in Kotak Education Foundation. I like the way to work in KEF with happy way, everyone was supportive towards work like a family.
I do not like the way people judge their work and compared to others work. No appreciation happens of the work in the intervention. People thinks we are not working. As I given my 100 percent towards KEF but our seniors does not appreciated at all. The culture of KEF is very good but some people have ego problems which is very bad. Please make sure intelligent people should take the appraisal. Specially for PH she is very good human being but she occurs personal things in the meeting which is very dislikefull and disrespect for the employee....Read More

This NGO works on its Brand name.
Unnati project in the NGO is terrible to work . The project head and below level people are always disrespecting below level employee.
I was appointed as senior officer in CNT team and it was horrible that I have to work somethings else. The KRAs KPIs keeps on changing month to month.

Its a good place to work with, people are sweet, but those who do work get more work while the rest are busy with pleasing the bosses.
Too much power with the Bosses, no empowerment of the members of the content creation team, promoting those who keep flattering the heads others dont have any rights.

Scope to work in the social sector
Lack of a roadmap More focus on being presentable to the funder rather than doing good for the beneficiary
