... Chaos and confusions are common place and last mile delivery is so stressful. Salary policy is non existent. You can see lateral hires getting less than 10 lacs per annum CTC with more than 20 years of experience in domains other than finance or admin. But there are diploma holders with 4 or 5 years experience getting more than 10 lacs per annum . There is no equation suits the distribution.

During appraisal my achievements are not appreciated and considered and each time my manager tells it was management driven project. Senior HR people always telling that Ashokleyland one of the highest payers in India, which is absolute fake statement. Mid management
