Except office space nothing is worth mentioning

Dislikes

The person sitting next to you doing the exact same work will be getting more salary than you. Better quote a hire price for your self at time of interview

Job security one of the best in the market. Work culture is good, management is useless. They'll do nothing about any of your queries. It is very hectic forget about work life balance, you wouldn't even get an appreciation from your boss for a job well done but will see 50 mails for even a typo.

Dislikes

...bs even after you've proved that u are well capable of handling important stuff. They won't pay you no matter how good u are. But they will hire others, with less experience than you, who are not even good enough and pay them double your salary. The people are mostly nice and the workplace politics quite low. But don't stick around here after a couple of years, you will not be appreciated unless u get experience from other places. Then they'll hire you back with a lot of money but will refuse to pay someone who has probably given quite a few years to the company right from the beginning.

The working culture is healthy and appreciative, provided you work hard and care about making an impact.

Dislikes

The compensation could be better, but that depends on your level of experience. There is a lot of growth for freshers specifically in the organisation.

Working with NDTV was like dream come true back then for me. I got a lot of opportunities to learn from the best people in the business & I got to work on different platforms advice well. People are very good & friendly. All I can say is that it’s a cultural & professional shock for any ex-NDTV to work anywhere else.

Dislikes

Not everything is however fine at NDTV, like there is no salary growth & some of the bosses are not that great they are very unlike NDTV. Also, there isn’t any kind of perk or career growth at least for now. But even if it changed it won’t be a very dramatic change, it will be more or less the same. So I think NDTV is best to go for freshers where they can learn a lot & also quality knowledge. Unlike other channels who don’t know what they are doing really.

Big Brand.

Dislikes

Extremely harsh behaviour by seniors, no work-life balance, utter disregard for mental health. Supreme pressure. Unrealistic work standards expected considering lack of effective training provided.
