1) As a social media person, I learnt quite a few things which I didn't know. 2) You'll learn playing with excel and numbers. 3) Peer to Peer learning exists, especially from upper management (but totally depends on how your manager is) Some managers are good, some are really really bad. PS: Hiring at SK is really bad at management level.
Dislikes
1) Salary will remain the same if you're on contract in the social media team. 2) You'll NEVER become permanent unless you have a team working under you. 3) There's no security at job. If a page closes because of low performance and your manager's mistakes, you can be fired. 4) Favouritism at its peak. Affiliate marketers and content writers will come and give you gyaan. 5) There are NO HOLIDAYS. Yes, no Independence Day, no weekends, no Diwali, no Holi. It's a 365 day working position. 6) If you're the social media executive, you're also the copywriter and the graphic designer. 7) If work demands, you'll be called at 11 in the night for a task. Days are really tiring and can extend upto 15-18 hours of work days. Personally, I've at least been awake till 3-4AMs for 30-40 days of my entire stint....Read More

Less pressure compared to most other competitors. Co-workers can be a mixed bag. There are some a-holes, like in all Indian companies, but others are quite friendly. You'll experience more of the latter here, thankfully.
- Job security - Good
Dislikes
Absolutely no scope of promotions, or even a proper pay raise. The payouts are just abysmal; you can only buy some peanuts with that money. Work-life balance can be non-existent, depending on your department and workload. Payment is always never on time, so expect to wait until the middle of the month.

They pay on time and will be honest about pay scale.
Dislikes
Most unprofessional place I've worked out in 10 years of content writing with dozens of sports outlets. You must be on call all day waiting for assignments. Sometimes you'll get them back to back. Other times they'll ghost you for five hours and expect you to do all your work in final three hours or be on clock extra long Content managers assign topic and give you their tips. You'll do that and get the editor telling you that was wrong and to do the opposite of what content manager told you. One of the managers called the entire writing staff lazy and claimed he saw people work harder in tropical storm conditions. They expect you to be happy for a job and deal with disrespect or mismanagement. I was also "suspended" for my article being too similar to another on another outlet. Keep in mind - you write via keywords they give you and other sites do that too. So if you do what they tell you, they'll still punish you. Basically you must be extremely desperate for money or working here will be a headache....Read More

A wide variety of topics to cover. A good place to learn the ins-and-outs of SEO article writing and gain some insights into entertainment reporting.

It's up to you to enforce work-life boundaries. There is no paid time off. Contracts can be exploitative, trying to extract more labor for less pay.

They have flexible hours and you can write as much or as little as you want. The managers are more than understanding and leaves are approved pretty easily.

The pay is stagnant and hasn’t increased in over 2 years. There is very little option of upward mobility if any and there is no chance of making this a stable job.

1. Very greedy and toxic management. They give unrealistic monthly targets and pay extremely less per article 2. Some managers threaten your career if you don't meet their expected targets 3. They manipulate SEO to get more reads 4. They expect us to deliver more articles on weekends. Hence, lack of proper work-life balance

There is a lot to learn from working at Sportskeeda especially as a manager. You develop an understanding of operations and implement tactics to help your team grow. The business is sound from a content point of view and maintains certain standards which add to the quality of your work.
- Skill development - Good
Dislikes
Extremely poor work life balance and unrealistic target expectations. There is no regard for personal time and you have to be available at the beck and call of your seniors. The company does not provide any tools (laptops etc.), there are no benefits provided, and leaves are absolutely frowned upon unless you are absolutely sick. The pay is also meagre compared to the workload.

Everything. This is my second tenure with Sportskeeda, and this company is by far the best for sports journalists to work at. Everything at SK seems well structured. The pay is better than most other websites, and the timings are also friendly. A key thing that makes this organisation so beautiful are the seniors. Unlike some of my experiences with other companies, seniors at SK are understanding, and always willing to solve a problem. Overall, working at Sportskeeda is great, and if you have the opportunity to do so, don't miss the chance!...Read More

The best company I've worked so far with people having elite tastes when it comes to games, movies and pop culture in general. The freedom to work anytime you like provided you finish whatever tasks you picked up for the day, and the fact that the team leads and seniors are not at your throat for taking a couple of days off are two solid reasons that makes this company great.
