...foundation is missing. Management does not know that Respecting people is basic. They pay good salaries and lucrative incentives but will delay payments to the level, that the craze of getting that money is gone. If you are "Yes-Yes Sir" person, then you can grow well. Basically someone can only work and stay long here if they can keep their eyes, mouth and ears closed. Else, it's difficult to survive.

They abuse employees in very bad intention infront of all in board meeting. No one will behave professionally and always tell everyone do not come from tomorrow please leave the company even when you were performing for last 3 to 4 months. Zero work life balance even on Sundays you should have to attained meeting and do market on every sunday and even you should have to be ready for pickup all the calls even at 12pm in night.

New Job, Higher Pay, Now I’m Feeling Awkward

I’ve been at my new job for about six months now, and everything’s been going great! I’m getting positive feedback from my manager, and I get along well with the team. The thing is, when I started, my salary offer ended up being much higher than the initial number discussed during my interview. I didn’t negotiate and just accepted the offer. So, fast forward to happy hour with the team, and the topic of salary comes up. I, unfortunately, shared what I’m making, and let’s just say... it didn’t sit well with the others who have been on the team for years and make less than me. They weren’t mad at me, but now I’m feeling a bit uncomfortable and unsure how to handle this situation. Has anyone had something like this happen? How did you deal with it? Let’s chat!
