No Job security for Contractual Employee. Salary is paid through third party agency. There is no Employer Employee relationship with NHAI. Your Project Director may treat you like slave. No work ethics. There is also feeling of insecurity and loosing the job. No skill development/ trainings for contractual employees. If one is not seeking any growth in his career he may join on the post of Site Engineer in NHAI.

Only salary is good due to several allowances.

Dislikes

Poor management, very poor job security and exploitation at its best. There is no employer employee relationship between NHIDCL and its employees and the worst part is a office order is issued stating the same. There is no job training and no professionalism. At every level pleasing the boss is the motto of NHIDCL.

Salary Expectations

I am a Social Media Specialist with over 4 years of experience and was earning around 4.5 LPA in my previous role. When I joined my current organization, I discovered that my manager, with just 2.5 years of work experience, was earning a compensation of 7.6 -8.2 LPA (approx). This was quite surprising to me, and it made me question the market standards. I am currently looking to switch roles and, based on my research through Glassdoor and other sources, I am expecting a package of 7-8 LPA. However, many HRs I’ve spoken to feel that even 6 LPA is too high. What should be the ideal salary expectation for someone with my experience in the current market?
