Appraisals are fair and they give good salary hike and bonus every year.

Dislikes

No job security, they can fire you without any proper reason, lot of politics, bad working environment, you have to work 8 am to 8 pm or even more. Managements are not transparent. My manager take credit of my work. Overall terrible experience.

... (to run a plant) at very early stage in your career( straight out of college). The compensation offered by Zinc is good for a fresher. The field exposure and team management skills will be developed very soon at Zinc.

Dislikes

1.Training of GETs to be enhanced. 2.Entertainment facilities near plant location could be better.( Of course mining occurs out of City) 3.Allotment of GETs to plant location should be made by Technical people and not by HR. Kindly don't fill based on man power unavailability. Please confirm with technical before alloting people. 4.Plants should have separate Technical services team and not overload the Shift Engineers.

The company is good to start with. In initial years you will learn everything at ground level, which provides good amount of exposure.

Dislikes

Compensation is decent but work pressure is high. Since it is a manufacturing company, health and safety of the workers and employees are sometimes at stake.

Likes

1.) Safety standards level is good (but getting impractical nowadays) , expenditure on safety is good. 2.) Medical insurance for dependant parents free, term insurance free too. 3.) Flexible timings & leaves adjustments.

Dislikes

...mpathatic. 2.) Very bad appraisal system , Curse to get a C 'consistent' grade..all share benefits, yearly variables ( major chunk in salary ctc ) , incentives, promotions etc will nullify, even past shares will become zero too, you will never be able to be recruited back to organisation.Bad HR policies. 3.) Culture is very bad , nepotism & favouritism has overshadowed technical accumen, many incentives always goto the favoured few, no empathy between mgmt & workers now.Every penny you earn as salary will be reminded to you every now & then by senior mgmt as if granted to you as a favour beyond your calibre. Always say YES' & by EOD' culture is forced without due discussions or considerations. 4.) Very stressfull environment at job, Zero job Security !! ...Mark my words, the more you stay here the chances to get disposed or laid off increase manyfolds.Chances to get retire or work honorably in late years are scarce to none.. 5.) No proper balance of experience, either 15 to 20 yrs+ or just GETs..so practically even on head positions , you are basically left with none to pass on instructions or get jobs done safely.Even you are supposed to run all day or night in case of a problem in plant as no experience people are left. 6.) None of the employees have a good image/ words for the company, everyones just looking to escape.Suffocating formalities to route a work through finance ,commercial, safety,Hr..No coordination between departments regarding policy framing or chain of approvals. 7.) Rigid management attitude to accept or introspect the cause of unrest among employees.

There are no likes. It’s just decent salary at the cost of your health.

Dislikes

Everything!! Long working hours…overtime. 6 day work week… No great skill develops Highly abusive and aggressive culture. Manager screams badly and uses abusive words. Very very difficult to choose workplace of ur choice. Unhygienic food and poor drinking water across plant and living quarters. Even basic requirements for survival aren’t that good. You can see rats near the canteen. Very dirty washroom in plants. Life is like a Hell here!!!
