Novartis Procurement & Supply Chain Department Salaries in India (Updated 2025)

Likes

Work- Life Balance is good. Flexible timing Hybrid Working - 3day/week. One of the few companies that provide 6-month Paternity leave.

Dislikes

Slow-paced learning Salary is average and hike is poor. Average hike (8-10%) This may defer from department to department, but a lot of places there is clear biasness towards certain set of people and people working are not valued. Indirectly they are asked to move out.

only learning i liked about Novartis.

Dislikes

... even bother to look after employee complains. absolutely extinct department. 7. managers will call personally and ask employees to work on saturday and sundays without any extra pay. 8. they retaliate against external/ contractual employee if not listening to them. 9. raising against management with valid issues is not taken seriously. Overall -SCM is the worst department to work.

Likes

Work life balance is good for most of the teams. Good perks like pat leave is 6month, relaxed leave policy.

Dislikes

No scope to learn something new or ground breaking. Pay is below industry standards. Every 2-3 years they keep changing the process or team structures.

Likes

Nothing much only salary is on time as per payroll calendar.

Dislikes

Late promotion cycles. Promotion and salary hikes are given to people closer to management. Favouritism to department managers play key role here in development

Work life balance is amazing, tech is good, salary is great, benefits are great, company culture is awesome. Lot of involvement with business stakeholders gives exposure

Dislikes

Opportunities for growth are less, if someone is pure techie, may get disappointed with the kind of work. Some days pressure is a lot, while most other days are quite breezy.
