This was my first job with a big corporation. On job training was really grilling, but the job was really challenging with lot of discretionary powers to experiment and innovate at all levels. Good work is really rewarded. Management is very fr6and caring and stand by you in difficult situations. Its largest Indian employer after Railways, with ocean of opportunities for growth and career advancement. Townships are wonderful and have cosmopolitan culture. Great place to work.

Pros

Good rumerations, growth, free medical care and housing.

Cons

Long hours of work. Tough working conditions.

Challenging.

Executive director (Former Employee) - New Delhi, Delhi - December 8, 2019

Fantastic PSU and very caring provided you work as a team and care for it. My experience with SAIL has been very challenging and the way I could work with freedom gives any individual an opportunity to develop oneself in case he is serious enough to contribute.

very good company but human resource management is very poor

Technical Assistant , Contract Cell (Current Employee) - Jharkhand - July 5, 2017

I am working with SAIL. Since it is a government concern job security is at its best. you have got social security, financial freedom ,work culture is good but at some point of time you will start feeling disheartened since there is very less opportunity of growth. they dont have systems to distinguish performers and non performers. you work with your best potential but all in vain. best company for lazy people.

Pros

salary, security, medical facility, less pressure

Cons

human resource management

Learn Boundless

Maintenance Manager (Current Employee) - Bhilai - June 8, 2017

The best part of this is the work-life balance. Learning has no limits as there are ample opportunities to venture into. The most important lesson we get is how to tackle workforce where there is 100% job security.
