Dear Friend,
Whereever you go such thing is common in family owned industries. You have to bear with the things, otherwise you have to quit and look for new and green pasture. This is the order of the day. There is no scope for professionalism.

either leave or bring in a real master of her choice & replace existing system.This master should be briefed first to take care of some of the foolish systems.One can have beliefs/faith though it should not be hidering the work

Either your friend quits......or starts to believe in vastu and poojas....so that she integrates with the culture of an organization.
all i can say is that every company has its own set of problems.we may not be able to run away from each and every situation.
wish your friend gud luck from my end.

Dear Friends,

Thanks for responding. Your views help me understand that such beliefs do exist in a few other companies too. I shared this link with Rach and she felt a bit of relief to know that atleast other people too acknowledge that it is a ridiculous act.

Whats painful to learn is - inspite of such acts by the company, only God knows whether they are making any profit or loss. They literally squeeze the people. In my personal opinion - all of us have certain beliefs and we practise certain rituals for the benefit of our self. That is fine - but it should "NOT" be to an extent that it disturbs another person's personal freedom to work.

If any good signs show also the employers think that it is because of the pooja. Imagine - they changed the front gate direction of the company nearly four times in a year!

It seems they also dug some area and planted certain kind of plants. They scolded two people of the company who used a different path to go to their plant (this was within the campus!). So many things, when Rach told me I felt like laughing (it appeared silly to me!). But poor girl - I think she has lost her cool.

She is not worried much about all this as she tries to stay away, but she gets frustrated knowing that her new hires are feeling uncomfortable, that is also creating a feeling that she did a mistake by asking them to join this company.

What to say - they are very different. Everyone from the cleaner to the VP will talk to them on issues and decisions. Senior people have called her and asked what is their position in the company.

Spoke to her last evening and she told me that she is seriously thinking about her continuation - maybe in a week or so she might conclude what her next step is.

I feel she needs a break to relax and reassure herself that...She has reached a level where she is least bothered whether she has a job in hand or not. What to say - totally depressed.

Well after going through this bizzare incident, I as an individual would just suggest , since she already has an years experience and is one of the few people who has a creative mindset and is of the mind set to bring about change, its purely mental torture for her to continue in that Co., she should keep looking for a better opportunity where she can use her talent and her potential is harnessed in the right direction and as soon as she gets something meaningful , should quit this job!!!

Hi ,
I am wonder stuck on this.But yes typical small time companies can have this kind of functioning.
I empathize your friend and wish her all the best that she finds a good job soon.

I suppose she should quit the job. When she herself is not satisfied and her work is not being recognized. Everyone is bounding her to work in restricted boundaries. n i dont see her career growth in that environment. She should not waste her talent by staying there. So please Rach, relax and simply quit the job. u will have many other good opportunities waiting for u becoz u r a very talented girl.

She should quit the job forthwith and look for a company, which believes in Human Resources than anything else !
