I like that India Today really cares about their employees. They follow an employment first policy and that's really great. Sanitisation work has been great with desks being wipes every two hours. I feel safe working in my office through these tough times. The boss keeps everyone motivated through regular emails. Even in these trying times, they have announced Diwali surprise and appraisals. That's the silver lining which has put a smile on everyone's faces.

Job security - Excellent

Dislikes

Work progress is slow, especially in Kolkata station. A lot could be done but the pace is slow. Everyone is laidback. That's sometimes demotivating. I took a paycut so sometimes I get upset about slow pace of work. Career growth is slow. That's the only drawback. The management is a little too good for employees who look for a leeway to exploit resources.
