Dear All,
I am Sachin, currently pursuing my graduation in the commerce faculty. I started working at the age of 17 due to family responsibilities. Initially, I began my career as an office assistant in the finance department where I worked for 1 1/2 years. Subsequently, I had the opportunity to work as a Data Entry Operator in a reputable MNC. I spent one year in this role before being transferred to the HR & ADMN department to manage contract worker attendance and payroll due to the vast scope of work. During my time in the HR department, I acquired a wealth of knowledge. Within six months, I assisted in various administrative, recruitment, and training activities.
However, due to salary constraints, I transitioned to a small-scale industry where I currently serve as an HR & ADMN assistant. My responsibilities include managing the time office and administration for approximately 100 employees. One significant challenge I face is that the management, comprising individuals from the same family, lacks awareness of standard procedures. Whenever I raise concerns or offer advice, they consistently reject or dismiss them. Furthermore, they exhibit extreme financial caution, often reprimanding employees over minor issues, resulting in dissatisfaction among the staff.
I seek your guidance on whether I should persevere in this role or explore opportunities elsewhere. Additionally, I am keen on progressing in the field of HR and becoming a proficient HR professional. I aspire to enhance my skills further. Although I wish to convey more, I find it challenging to articulate fully. I hope you can comprehend my sentiments and provide your valuable advice.

Hi Sachin,
If you are planning to pursue a career in HR, consider obtaining an MBA for excellent future career opportunities, especially since you have experience in this field. Don't let money be a hindrance, especially considering your family responsibilities.
Additionally, given your significant experience, if issues persist in your current job, consider exploring other opportunities. However, do not leave your current job until you secure a good opportunity elsewhere.
Regarding the issue of shouting, there must be a reason behind this behavior. If your ideas or views are consistently declined or dismissed, it may be best to refrain from offering advice for a while.
It seems your boss may have a dominating personality. It could be that they prefer to keep decision-making within the family and exclude employees from company matters.
Stay focused on your responsibilities and consider exploring other great opportunities when the time is right. Don't worry and continue to do your part.
Warm regards.

I understand your situation. Firstly, do you have any educational qualifications in HR? If not, then consider pursuing them. Secondly, have you tried to convince your management to improve and initiate new things in HR at your company? If not, you can give it a try. Thirdly, if you have already attempted the above and are contemplating your next move, it is advisable not to switch jobs right now. At least, wait until the end of the first quarter of next year and then explore other opportunities.
From your email, it seems that you are a hard worker and have the attitude not to give up. Therefore, my friend, do not succumb to the current situation. Take some time to expand your knowledge in HR and utilize your time to enhance your skills.

Dear Sachin,
You need to be patient in your career. Try to do an MBA course that will help you with your career prospects. Don't let job problems persist in all areas. Try to resolve them by making the management understand the growth concerns and the long-term processes.
If you plan to quit the job, find a better opportunity.

Good evening Sachin,
First, you need to pursue an MBA in HR through distance education. There is no need for a full-time course or to leave your job. After completing the program, simply switch jobs. With your valuable experience, I am confident you will secure a good position in the HR field.

Dear Sachin,
Please consider pursuing a Diploma in HR/Administration + Labour Law and an MBA (depending on whether you can afford the MBA fees).
You can enroll in the diploma course at Annamalai University for just 2500 INR for one year.
Could you please share your current salary with us? We are currently in need of HR/Admin/Compliance executives, and our organization may be able to assist with your MBA expenses (up to 30,000 INR annually).
Additionally, we run an NGO that supports underprivileged communities. You are welcome to join us in this noble cause, though it involves challenging work in the field and rural areas, which may be different from your current MNC role with air conditioning.
Our team works tirelessly, as evident by my sun-darkened hands from our field visits to identify and assist child laborers in rural areas by providing financial aid to their families for the children's education.
Half of our profits are dedicated to the NGO for aiding the less fortunate, and we receive generous contributions from foreign donors annually.
Best Regards,
Sajid Ansari - Delhi

Dear Sachin,
Our members have already given you suggestions on choosing an educational course that would benefit you in the long run.
In the meanwhile, regarding your current job, I am able to understand the situation you are going through. Family-run businesses will take a long time to change. They will accept change, but this will take a long time, and may also take away good learning years from you. As of now, you have only limited exposure in HR. I suggest you look out for an opportunity that involves more than just time office and admin work. Once the offer is confirmed, you can quit this current job. I am not asking you to run away from such a situation; it's just that if any change has to come, it requires more hands-on experience in most HR and admin activities to advise and counsel them on how they could change.
Currently, they only have a preset thought that you are so young and "why" should they work on your advice for improvement. That is their mindset. Don't waste your years. So plan properly, pursue a good course (as suggested by members), and also keep looking for a better job opportunity.
