Working with Godrej Industries
The wide variety of businesses that GIL is involved in provides present and potential employees plenty of opportunities to grow, as well as the cross-functional exposure to enrich and widen their horizons.

A huge, and not always clearly visible, effort lies behind the success of any organisation. We at GIL believe in taking our people along as we forge ahead. Total employee involvement is embedded in the company's culture. Continuing with this tradition, we embarked on a 'total quality management' (TQM) journey in 1995. "Quality in everything we do" was the motto of this endeavour.

This could only have been possible if each one of us did our bit in the quest for excellence. TQM awareness programmes, small group activities, Kaizens, and key business process improvements became the order of the day. Today, four years down the line, quality is a way of life at Godrej Industries. All our employees are part of an evolution born out of what we like to term 'shared values'. These are a set of 10 values developed after deliberations by the entire GIL team.

Openness is central to the way the company works. Our open appraisal system is a joint effort between the appraiser and the person being appraised. Performance on the job is not the sole criterion for evaluation; factors like customer orientation and subordinate development are given due importance.

Training and development is a high-focus human resources initiative strongly supported at the corporate level. An employee is given ample opportunities to learn and grow. Tools like '360-degrees feedback' facilitate overall individual development.

Care and concern for fellow-employees is evident across the board in GIL. We take care of the quality of work delivered as well as the environment in which it is executed. Our lush green, spacious complex, which is a 'no tobacco zone', provides the right ambience to employees. Housing facilities, a school , a library and a recreation centre are just some of the highlights of the quality of life that we offer.

Leadership and management
Most of the senior positions in Godrej Industries are held by people who joined the company as trainees. This speaks volumes about the company's commitment to ensuring the growth of its employees and about the opportunities it generates. Our management systems and structures are designed to encourage you to reach for the sky.

As the group begins to look at a broader canvas and enters 'green field' areas, new opportunities are thrown up by the day. This in turn is making accelerated growth and promotion opportunities at all levels a reality. The compensation structure in GIL is comparable to the best in the industry. What is immeasurable is the work environment -- the responsibility, the challenge, the opportunities for horizontal and vertical mobility, and the freedom and flexibility in decision-making.

All of these positives have created an environment that is warm, friendly and extremely conducive to professional and personal growth. Given below is the typical upward mobility pattern for a management trainee.

Campus recruitment
We recruit at the management trainee level from premier management schools and we are always looking for young men and women high on initiative and nurturing a strong desire to make a positive difference to the success of our businesses.
