I worked as an Executive Graphic Designer for over a year in a company where I handled multiple responsibilities, including graphic design, video editing, and content creation. While I gained valuable experience, the overall work environment was challenging and demotivating.
Some key issues I faced:
Lack of Employee Value – Hard work often went unrecognized, and salary increments were minimal.
Toxic Micromanagement – The management constantly undermined employees’ efforts instead of fostering growth.
Unreasonable Workload – Despite handling tasks beyond my role, there were no additional benefits or appreciation.
Poor Work-Life Balance – A 6-day workweek, long hours, and only 10 leaves a year made it difficult to maintain a balance.
While this company may be a learning ground for beginners, those looking for respect, career growth, and fair pay should consider other options.
yo, screw that corporate bs! they treatin' ya like a machine, not a human. ₹ peanuts for all that grind? nah fam, know ur worth. quit that toxic hellhole n find a place that respects ur hustle.
Exactly! On top of that, we didn’t even have access to Google at work, and they have just unlocked Freepik and a few competitor websites. The micromanagement is insane, and there are no real benefits. Just a 6-day grind with barely any leaves. It’s like they expect us to function as robots, not creatives. Definitely looking for a place that values skills and respects employees.
