If you are from Dehradun, it’s a place to work. As you may find some time to spend at home ( forget the festival times) . Cafeteria food is provided to every employee . Medical checkup’s are provided by company at regular intervals. A day off is given every week . PF is deducted and company also contributes to it. Most of the time you may get the applied leaves( apart from festivals and busy period) The property is amazing with tranquil nature and prestine clean air. The guests coming are mostly humble and not very rude....Read More

Dislikes

The owner has unclear objectives ( every three months the focus changes) Top management is ridiculous . If you see their performance from outside, they seem to be unworthy of their high post , the only reason they have sticked around is buttering and pampering the owner. Middle management are mostly the ones who have been working since the beginning but are actually the dumbest beings in the property. Their focus is on the owner rather than the guests. The working staff are a bunch of headless chickens who are busy in working but with minimal productiveness The work load and stress is too high, although the actual work is very less. For eg : A guest’s food order requires 1 chef and 1 service team member to serve, whereas Owner’s food order requires the Head chef with three other chefs and F&B manager and two others to serve. The owner’s coffee is made only by team manager and above position . They cut employees in every year or two in the name of dhansantushti only to rehire in a few months, so your job security will always be on ultra high risk. The f&b service staff also has to serve as a office boy for other departments which gets quite humiliating sometimes....Read More

The growth prospects at Vana is pathetic. The promotion happens to those who have worked for long , your skills or communication doesn’t matter. There are team briefings happening twice a day where the seniors dishonour and demoralises t

Company policies have changed a lot, they used to be employee friendly. Project Dhansantushti is the name of the annual ritual of golden handshakes, where people are kicked off and then they start re hiring again. Nobody at Vana who is hired to do a job ends up doing the same job, in fact they run around like headless chickens they do not know what they are supposed to do. There is a lot of foo foo about karma and dharma, yet the level of toxicity is incomparable. I should be grateful as being thrown into the deep end has served me well and I learnt a lot, and exited when there were just games being played and no work done....Read More

Dislikes

Lots of politics: the focus is on placating the owner and not on work. Only the sycophants have stuck on, those who have nowhere else to go. The promotions are given to those who are in the owner's radar, irrespective of their work and actual contribution. There is a very negative environment of perpetual dissatisfaction. There is anexus of people who act as filters of communication and make sure the honest picture is not presented to the owner. The owner is very benevolent to his new senior management hires in the beginning, and then just drops them like hot potato and insults them. They take the insult because by now they have grown used to the pampering (gifts and privileges) and know they will not be hired at the same position anywhere else. In essence, highly toxic environment. Also, there are no trainings for skill development of the employees. The management has money for multi tiered gold leafed cakes but no money or inclination to give their designers a simple adobe refresher. Really, have never seen this pell mell anywhere else....Read More

The Team in lower level is very much dedicated to their work and so much serious about there profession.

Dislikes

The top management is always in confusion they keep experimenting the things which mostly ends with the failure and unnesessary hustle over the operations. And once you enter as a Team memeber please forget that they are going to promote you or going to increase the salary. Work and life balance is poor .

Work Details

Zero, the work and life balance is zero and if you are doing hard work even you will not get the compansasion for that.

We are treated as a family, there is a acutely sense of gratitude for the care demonstrated by the owner.

When some team members don’t realise or appreciate the support extended during these difficult times. When I see few of us loving far away from reality.
