The Hindu Group "Job Security" Reviews

Only the age old name and the legacy it carries.

Dislikes

1. Work- life balance is a big negative. It will run one mad as there is too much pressure and one cannot take their legitimate earned holidays due to everyday work pressure. Higher management thinks us to be machines and will force you to do three persons work with the same salary. 2. Salary is not at all good compared to the industry standards. There are some fossils and clowns in the company who runs the show by sucking to higher management. All benefits are stopped except one small medical insurance policy. Editorial is exception as they are worshipped in our organization. 3. Appraisal is a stereotype process in the organization done by HR department every year with no outcome. Promotions are rare as a White Elephant in The Hindu Group which may occur at an interval of every 4 to 5 years if you are lucky with an optional(depends upon super boss) salary hike of 5% to 10% max. Here also editorial is exception. 4<mark style="background-color: #fff5e4;">. Day by day job security is also an issue in this company with many levels of lay offs over the years</mark>. 5. There is little scope for skill development and opportunity for learning and is rarely encouraged by higher management. 6. Due to the above points work satisfaction is also affected and is low. 7. Company culture is orthodox but there are few people who terrorize the whole system by sacking people from there job. 8. People who are working in the organization should be given priority in terms of promotion and salary hike. Instead worthless and lazy people are taken from outside with higher salary which breaks the moral of the existing loyal employees.

The best thing about this organisation is work-life balance. There is genuine consideration when there are health issues. Depending on the HOD, there is room for innovation to some extent. There is immense job security.

Dislikes

Appraisal and hike are bad. There is no recognition for hard work. Favouritism and elitism are dominant across editorial. There are no challenges unless you are self-motivated.

Work involves editing, writing and, coordination with freelancers. I am a hardworking and self-motivated person 2 and so I introduce new columns on my pages to break away from monotony. I specialise in environment, science and news.
