Horrible Place to work. It's not a university but just a business revenue generated model from students fees. As per Clause 15, the teaching duty for Assistant Professors is 16 hours direct teaching. But here at Lovely Professional University, it's 22-hour weekly teaching load, that is 6 hours more than the guidelines and is unethical. They don't follow any UGC guideline nor any government norms. People don't respect you here. The lack of respect from HR and staff is appalling. Teaching subjects are assigned outside of one's specialisation and from different domains. There is no time provided for proper research or preparation. The moment you have 1-2 hour in your regular shift duty, it's filled with examination duties which are mandatory. You can't even take a leave of you are assigned with some examination duties. The micro management has been increased exponentially which feels more than a workplace harrasment. They leave no space for creativity, nor self learning, not preparing for a class or nor academic growth in teaching. Their leave policy is a joke, offering just 8 days of casual or sick leave per semester. They give only 1 month of maternity leave which is highly unethical. The HR resignation policy is a complete trap, cleverly worded to give a compensatory amount. They have 2 months of notice period, but that's a joke. No relief will be provided unless you complete the teaching duty till the last teaching day of the semester, else you have to pay 3-4 months of salary amount as a compensation. They also keep original 10th and Degree Certificate as a security which is another trap. I have never seen any organization keeping the original documents. This trap is preventing us from leaving the institute for better opportunities. You can't apply resignation on January, February or July, August as you have to pay 3-4 months salary as a compensation amount which is addition to the get relieved from last teaching day. So their is different policy for applying resignation in teaching and non teaching period. They are running this corporate factory with highly understaffed workforce. With only about 2500 faculty members for 60-70 thousand students, everyone is overworked beyond human capacity to meet unrealistic targets. We even don't have a dedicated lunch break in our timetable. We have to find some time between the classes to have some food. This toxic environment is stifling and far from conducive to any form of professional satisfaction or personal well-being. There is no flexiblity in your pedagogy if teaching. If you work here for more than 4-5 years then you will be having High blood pressure, stress, anxiety and hypertension for sure due to their unethical policies and you can do nothing about it....Read More

Students are good and cooperative.
Dislikes
The working culture is at times toxic. The head of school was biased , incompetent and arrogant. A lot of faculties left in his tenure. Still after all this, The HR didn't question his attitude and intentions. The innocent , hardworking and genuine faculty was questioned now and then over his fake remarks . Ultimately, The faculty have to leave. They don't understand the importance of truth and someone who is actually committed rather focus upon sugar coated and superficial success....Read More

Handsome salary and great area to connect with other professionals. Amazing facilities.
Dislikes
Terrible work life balance, opaque policies and unusual deductions from salary on things like if you leave class 2 minutes early, Late for class by a minute, projector was not on. They do keep your original academic certificates in custody so that you cannot leave abruptly by their toxic culture. Treat employees as cheap labour even if you are doctorate.

They say if you can survive in LPU, you can survive anywhere. The environment is quite competitive so you are going to learn lot of things in very short amount of time. If you are a true hustler you are going to see lot of other means to earn such as floating your own training programs , writing Research Papers, generating revenue for university and many more. In my tenure of 7 years at LPU I have never seen them delay salary. Politics is everywhere but was fortunate enough to be under a caring head....Read More
Dislikes
You are never going to get respect here, neither from students, nor from your colleagues. The hierarchy of respect is somewhat like this here, HR People> AO> Teachers. Being a teacher is a respectable job but not here. One thing which I never liked is their policy of leave deductions, these people from HR , AO , DQA and DAA can deduct your salary anytime for even smallest mistakes. They will deduct your leave if there is a Chancellor address going on and you leave the venue before the end of it (even if university time is over). There is lack of vision in upper hierarchy of university, which might result in downfall of university in coming future....Read More

Make use of your skills, you have to do multiple roles at same time, it is tough to balance things but at the end of the day you might have skilled to do multiple activities..
Dislikes
No balance between work life and personal life, to finish the targets you need to compromise your personal life, health, sleep and the target increases, that's all. As the focus is more on targets, the quality of teaching, working, everything with be sided. No Sunday holidays. Working days from Tuesday to Sunday. Monday was work offbut as the university is working, you will be some or another task on Monday as well....Read More

There is no teaching load that can't be handled by the faculty and the university encourages and gives a lot of time for faculty development and helps them at all levels to work for personal growth
Dislikes
For one subject they have approximately 16 faculties on an average so at any point of time that subject can be taught by any one of them which leaves other faculties absolutely free most of the time.
