Incompetence HR and benefits: opiniones de empleados con el puesto de Empleado anónimo en Educomp Raffles

I gave this company 3 stars at a push, and I think it is riding on how fantastic the students are. The college has come a long way - at one time new employees received no help settling into New Delhi which is not the easiest place to sort yourself out! There was very little understanding of the visa renewal process and the tax system, although that changed while I was there, so all I can say is thumbs up for driving a positive learning curve! Some very lovely staff, from both India and abroad - and all local staff made you feel welcome in their own way. If you want to stay in teaching, it is a company that allows you to move up the ranks.

Some very poor people hiring choices when it came to taking on management, and little to no employee reviews. I'm not saying this was across the board; there were some great management there at points, but the bad ones really made life miserable. No people skills, bullying in the work place and inappropriate ego issues, all resulting in staff handing in their notice before the end of their contract. Don't apply if you are not thick skinned, you'll need therapy after working there! If you can stand up for yourself, and have a resilient fighting spirit then go for it.

The students are very nice.

The management is way below the average. No experience, neither educational nor professional. They hire professionals, preferably westerners - pretending to give "international education" - and then try to control and threaten them in any possible way, placing "authority" before expertise. The equipment necessary for the lessons - it's a Design College -, is non existent and, when available, is hardly working. The building itself is in such poor conditions, smelly and run down. The working hours are definitely too many, 8 hrs a day + 2/3 saturday mornings every month, and the salary not sufficient to live a decent life in a city like Delhi, that is not "cheap" as they say in their welcome letter - but you discover it too late. No benefits are offered, everything is left on the employer - that is a few thousand kilometers from home, so in kind of a distress to find out everything by himself.
