The Statesman "Career Growth" Reviews

Likes

Everyone wants to work for a legacy media company. The Statesman is one such company and that’s just about it. There is nothing more an employee can look forward to in terms of job satisfaction. It needs to do much more to stay relevant. Can start with some sort of synergy between its print and online divisions. The online section al so must hire reporters or let workers go out of the officer for news gathering.

A very small team, which is highly inadequate to meet the job demand. There is no career growth as hierarchy is not defined. There is no appraisal system so attrition rate is very high. No scope for travel and networking, which makes it difficult for the journalists to deliver. Salary n ot paid on time....Read More

It was hectic. As the head of the online content team without a proper deputy, there was nothing that moved without my involvement. This meant I had to be available at all hours, which made it difficult for me to maintain a work life balance.

Worst company anyone can ever imagine to work with. Didn't provide salary on a regular basis. No basic work culture could be seen here.

Dislikes

This is the most worst company in Kolkata I have worked in 2015. The management was very bad, uncultured & rude and no proper HR policy is there. There are no scope of learning and development, no career growth. Employees are treated as a slave of management. No leave and unnecessary jo b pressure and you have to maintain 10 hours office time in the office. The payment is irregular and paid after 2-3 months. Most of the employees are old, frustrated and they are not cooperative, specially HR team. I have worked here for 9 month and salary received for 4 months. I request all of you please do not join this company....Read More
