Sharda University Associate Professor salaries in India (Updated 2025)

Likes

A good, clean and secure campus with decent accomodation. Liberal and multicultural environment in the university. Less hectic work, hence good for those looking for a relaxed life. Also, they usually pay the salaries on time and there is some job security as they rarely lay off employees.

Dislikes

Poor salary and negligible annual increments. Don't expect any bonuses or rewards. Good work is not appreciated. When everyone is paid the same, even the dedicated workers soon lose interest and morale. Lots of politics. No professional or academic growth. No atmosphere conducive to learning and progression. Worse than government departments. Unless you're related or close to the chairman, forget any hearing. Very poor respect for human resources. No health insurance. No academic allowances. No doctor's room or couch. Not even a free coffee machine! Everything just revolves around paying the employees the least and maximizing profits. Poor administration from top to bottom. No wonder, they're unable to retain the best employees. Most of the employees are either retirees or poorly skilled to be employed elsewhere. Disappointing and demoralising work culture.

I liked the campus, medical college support and policy of supporting faculty for research and development. The initials years were the golden period when we were led by VC Shri Vijay Gupta and Chancellor PK Gupta. There was lot of learning and we were motivated to explore and work towards the development of the students, department and the University.

Dislikes

...ork. This is highly reflective in promotion, upgradation and all other areas. 4. Lack of faculty and hiring inexperienced faculty for the low salary has badly hampered the quality of education. 5. Although they have NAAC but their standards have fallen deliberately in last 2 years. It is tough to work in such a toxic and pressurizing environment.

Departmental working environment

Dislikes

I worked there for almost 2years. The authority deducted 40% of my salary during COVID period and assured for returning the same after COVID lockdown off; but they refused for the same. Thus happened to all employees who left the institute because of some better govt. or pvt. opportunity.

Likes

Owners never keep anyone's money. Pay packages are also good.However the working environment is very hectic and no job security.

Dislikes

BOTH Nitin Rakesh(HOD) and Parmanand Astya(Dean) are biased. And Parmanand is the worst administrator since he joined most of the people have left the university.
