Likes

Doordarshan is a reputed place to work with. I especially like the environment and staff behavior as I am a contractual staff & the others are permanent employees in doordarshan but still they are so polite & humble towards us. I'm learning a lot of work here.

Dislikes

Most irritating part is as we are a contractual staff there so we cannot have any kind of Salary hikes benefits out there & not getting Salary on time.

Average salary of engineering assistant here is 65,000 per month. All the engineering staff in Doordarshan is on permanent basis while the programming staff is on contract basis so the programming staff is unsatisfied but this company is very good for engineers as we get all the benefits of government job.

Dislikes

Best work to life balance, no pressure job, sufficient leaves available, LTC, bonus etc.
