In Aakash there is no work culture at any level, we should not expect any kind of support from anyone.All the employee are acting like anything.Every one try to pull your legs.Every one will work to save their jobs only.There is no family life balancing.my sincere advise is its better to not join in aakash.

Aakash provide everything on time like salary, expenses, appraisal, training for skill development, innovation through corporate. Aakash is a good organisation. Work - life balance not much good if you are working in sales because of you can't take weekly off without seniors permission. There are several things not good which are created by some middle order seniors .

Dislikes

Teammates are equally good. Corporate office provide a lot of training to the employees which is beneficial. Job is not secure in Aakash even you are performer due to branch level politics. Branch level seniors always justify themselves through complaining of juniors and others. Branch level seniors always blackmail to juniors, I will complain and your job will lost. Sales person always afraid his job is insecure due to unnecessary work presser of seniors. Even he afraid to take his weekly off. Always cold war between BM & Sales Team Leader that's why team suffers a lot. Most of the time they create surprise meeting even a team member working 60 K.M. far from branch.

Dislikes

Working culture very pressurized working culture, no work life balance we were also asked to report office during festival holidays, Managers are not supportive will always threaten you for your job and will ask frequently to resign if day target is not completed also managers are always finding way to save there own job. Working in Aakash Chandigarh branch I have seen myself many others employees loose their confidence and leading to towards unwanted stress as they will make you feel worthless.

On time salary

Dislikes

Bad work environment reason: (1)working on SIP forcefully, (2)per day change in rules for travel and other reimbursements just to mentally disturb employees so that they quit and don't apply reimbursement, (3)overtime work forcefully with no extra pay, unplanned classes which harass faculties, Faculties are forced by DD, AD and AH to give students admission test to provide them maximum scholarship just to increase maximum number of admissions which later on affects teacher to fulfill the target result, (4) Less increment in salary (5) Unnecessary transfer any time even in the mid session just to downgrade ratings to kick out of company (6)In some centres, AH don't let you know about your feedback and ratings just to let you unaware of it if they are wishing to see you jobless or they are instructed by AD or DD to throw you out of the company so that it seems legal and ethical. (7) Job insecurity is the major reason here, when they need you, they will make you work for more than 12 hrs but when they start cost cutting, they will definitely find a way to terminate you even without paying you notice period salary or providing notice period. (8) Worst thing is their "Student First" concept which is applicable for any type of uncultured, unmannered and disturbing students. They can terminate you even just to hold one such type of students reason being these type of students of pay full fees. Conclusion is that at Aakash, a student who pay fee is more respectable than a teacher who has high knowledge and experience with even IITs degree. (9) In some centres there is a discrimination between JEE and NEET. This affects teachers value at centre. (10) The strict punch in and punch out system is very uncomfortable for employees. There should be a system like PW which uses Darwinbox and employees come and complete 9 hrs as per their work schedule and comfort.
