Learnt a lot about journalism and the working environment was also too good.

Dislikes

The paper pulled out its Bihar edition without any prior notice to the staff leaving many unemployed. So, job security wise, the organization should be rated below average.

There's nothing that I can say I liked about this company while working for two years. Not a single thing. Probably the worst company I have ever worked for or I will in future.

Dislikes

Bosses don't maintain a decorum with their employees. They play dirty politics and bully their employees making their life hell. And even after complaining the HR doesn't take any action against them. Zero financial motivation. Your hard work never gets paid off accordingly. You get fooled during appraisals and a lot of partiality goes on during appraisals. The one who does the least of work gets a promotion and salary hike. Female bosses tries to control your personal life and if you protest they start taking a piss at you at work. Will never recommend anybody to this company. In all my six years of work experience I have never faced such people and female bosses at work.

Nothing. Terrible work culture and impolite people. Can't say so about The Telegraph as a whole; I worked at the Young Metro, which is absolutely the worst ever.

Dislikes

Everything in theThe Young Metro Department. Especially the work environment which is made the worst by unfriendly, impolite staff.

Hi, I'm here to share a part of my journey from the past 12 years in my career, I started from a package of 3.6LPA in 2013 at iGate and due to a few bad decisions on my career and worthless advices from people who are always pessimistic about the industry, I switched two companies and landed in a start-up with 2.4LPA. I worked hard nearly 8-16hrs a day single handed researched, built and managed an entire vertical of a project for 8 years. When the company didn't value my contribution and thought I was too young to become a manager, I had a package of 6LPA and Senior developer in designation. I switched for obvious reasons to a TL role for 12LPA and now at the same company I'm a TPM on the basis of my contribution with 48LPA as a fixed component. I feel outclassed in terms of having a fancy CV with certifications, I feel like CTC has hit a peak with 48LPA being fixed and nearly 40% in Variable. Most companies are hesitant to hire me because of this. What should be my next move?
