There's nothing that I can say I liked about this company while working for two years. Not a single thing. Probably the worst company I have ever worked for or I will in future.
Dislikes
Bosses don't maintain a decorum with their employees. They play dirty politics and bully their employees making their life hell. And even after complaining the HR doesn't take any action against them. Zero financial motivation. Your hard work never gets paid off accordingly. You get fooled during appraisals and a lot of partiality goes on during appraisals. The one who does the least of work gets a promotion and salary hike. Female bosses tries to control your personal life and if you protest they start taking a piss at you at work. Will never recommend anybody to this company. In all my six years of work experience I have never faced such people and female bosses at work....Read More

The paper pulled out its Bihar edition without any prior notice to the staff leaving many unemployed. So, job security wise, the organization should be rated below average.

Opportunity to learn, I wanted to gain knowledge regardless. But yeah just because they send you a offer letter doesn't mean they keep their words. So make sure when you work you have talked formally about document & certification.
Dislikes
I was interning at T2 section, the company currently really lacks management & overall guidance for Interns. Better switch to other media houses . Choose your mentor wisely or they will scam you to do work with no recognition.
