Unexpected job policies: stay or switch?
I recently switched jobs with a 48% hike, and my current in-hand salary is ₹35K. But after joining, I realized a few important things that weren’t mentioned during the interview. 1. No Phones or Bags Allowed – We have to keep them in lockers, which I wasn’t informed about before joining. 2. Working Saturdays – HR said all Saturdays are working but assured that one Saturday off per month would be introduced soon. I can't see that happening anytime soon 3. Phone Policy Confusion – When I asked HR why this wasn’t discussed earlier, they said it’s only for two months and won’t be the case at the new location (which was discussed earlier). But some old employees say the same rule applies there too. 4. Leaves – We get 21 paid leaves a year. I’m already thinking of switching. Would it be too soon to leave within 3 months, or should I stay for at least 6 months? Also, since I just got a good hike, how much can I ask for in my next job?

...rker, they would often get salary appraisal as per company norms and experience. They are liable to get Bonus or any other financial aids in time. Sometimes working environment will be very risky but with appropriate team work any difficulties can be Overcomed. Onnovative ideas will depend on the ability of Main Engineers and Labours. KSEB provide's a good Work-Time balance system as the Office time will be in between morning 10am to 5 pm in evening. KSEB ensures no home in Kerala is left in dark.

People working under Contract with KSEB are quiet under payed. A permanent worker would get 4 times the money a contract worker would get for same work load or more and is not liable to avail any medical benefits or others. He will be at his own risk. Efficiency of the Kseb Substation or Office is depended on the skill and morality of the Main Engineer and associated workers.
