Advice to Management

I worked in JPMC Noida under an ED whose leadership style is extremely unhealthy and demoralizing.

Although JPMC officially has a WFH policy, he outright denies employees the option to use it. He forces everyone to work 9 hours daily without flexibility. Even basic needs like breakfast, lunch, or restroom breaks require his permission, which is humiliating and unprofessional.

He does not focus on actual work delivery; his only focus is constant micromanagement. If an employee faces a personal or family issue, his response is, “This is not your matter, you are here to earn money.” He has even been rude when speaking about employees’ families, showing zero empathy or respect.

Parking is also supposed to be first-come, first-serve as per JPMC policy. But one day when he arrived late and found parking full, he got angry at employees and changed the rules, restricting parking only to certain employees because he drives a Mercedes, while others have “cheaper” cars. This shows his biased and arrogant behavior.
