... one cannot take their legitimate earned holidays due to everyday work pressure. Higher management thinks us to be machines and will force you to do three persons work with the same salary.
2. Salary is not at all good compared to the industry standards. There are some fossils and clowns in the company who runs the show by sucking to higher management. All benefits are stopped except one small medical insurance policy. Editorial is exception as they are worshipped in our organization.
3. Appraisal is a stereotype process in the organization done by HR department every year with no outcome.
Promotions are rare as a White Elephant in The Hindu Group which may occur at an interval of every 4 to 5 years if you are lucky with an optional(depends upon super boss) salary hike of 5% to 10% max. Here also editorial is exception.
4. Day by day job security is also an issue in this company with many levels of lay offs over the years.
5. There is little scope for skill development and opportunity for learning and is rarely encouraged by higher management.
6. Due to the above points work satisfaction is also affected and is low.
7. Company culture is orthodox but there are few people who terrorize the whole system by sacking people from there job.
8. People who are working in the organization should be given priority in terms of promotion and salary hike. Instead worthless and lazy people are taken from outside with higher salary which breaks the moral of the existing loyal employees. One trick I have noticed that if people threatens to leave or joins the company again are given higher salary and designation.

For those guys who have an entrepenuer thought process , this is a good place to experiment . The enviornment shall allow u the space to attempt, having said , u may have to do it all alone! It is a good learning ground . There are variety of highly respected products across the portfolio. The company is investing their budgets on digital and technology areas .
Compensation for those guys who are not digitally skilled are just fine. Mentoring is not part of HR process , having said there are some training programs in house. Appraisals though is a exhaustive in paper , but is not far sighted.
