KEC International Vice President Procurement salaries in India

Likes

KEC is a good organization. It's employee friendly and promote diversity. Have seen people rising up after getting internal opportunity. Work life balance may be more on corporate offices than at site. But management is encouraging. They are improvising various HR practices gradually towards betterment. Happy to be here.

Dislikes

... cash for smooth inflow in the project. This brings pressure from top to bottom. Less basic salary and high retention. Rest is all good.

Flexible work timings, great work-life balance, plethora of opportunities for self-learning.

Dislikes

Compensation is calculated based on a random calculation especially for folks hired from top b-schools through campus recruitment. This results in lower than average compensation which increases attrition. Further, KEC culture is still more aligned with typical EPC companies than the more vibrant and empowering RPG culture.

Dislikes

No clarity on Work from Home Very long wait time for promotion 4-5 yrs plus Chairman writes a lot of things about RPG culture, but it doesn't apply to KEC. It applies to other group companies only Very biased towards women employees No Sodexo, no tax efficient salary structure very limited benefits beyond salary
