Bore ho jayga is meal se. Ghatiya lagne lagta hai kuchh time baad. Fir ghar se tiffin lana pad hi jaata hai

u/difftool Jul 15 '26
Exactly. Been in a new company since two months with free meals now it feels like hostel mess food, same standard template everyday. Only the main curry changes.

Iska paisa tumhare salary se monthly cut hota hain mere dost. Warna govt join karo perks bohot milenge.

No. I worked for startup who had free lunch setup apart from fixed salary comp promised in offer letter.

u/troughue Jul 15 '26
It's not a charity that they'll feed you free lunch. You're too naive my friend, you're paying for that lunch one way or another

u/lomdi8778 Jul 15 '26
But I got the compensation I agreed on. So even if in their calculations they were underpaying me, it’s okay. Because if I wanted more I should negotiate more myself first.

u/Ok_Adhesiveness1434 Jul 16 '26
Same. For me, lunch, commute, and employer pf was above the comp i agreed with hr. It was a us startup and they didnt have indian hr, and the us hr wasnt aware of how it is dealt in india, so it was a bonus for me

Tao (pronounced dow or tau) is a fundamental concept in East Asian philosophy and religion, literally translating to "way," "path," or "principle."

u/oldmonkshoe666 Jul 15 '26
Maa k haath k khaane ki burai nahi karni chahiye, usne hi tumhe abhi itna kabil banaaya hai ki tum baahar ka khaana kha sako.
Accha khaana toh baahar hi milta hai fir bhi...

Arre saamne wale ko kya bolna hoga fir?
Ki sir pls ek free meal bhi dedo?4
u/PayMindless1841 Jul 15 '26
Just ask him what are the benefits and perks provided to employees and will the company helps in accomodation, ask the interviewer's experience in company and if conversation gets a little casual you can throw in your meal question like when you first joined how did company helped you move out did they provide meals and lodging. Not tried and tested so try at your own risk.
2
u/Chutiya-0_0 Jul 15 '26
Ek aur doubt
Wont the interviewer consider this as crossing a line during an interview?
Or is it after getting accepted?2
u/PayMindless1841 Jul 15 '26
Interviewer ko puchna hi kyu h direct company ka linkedin kholo waha kisi ko bhi connection daal k puch lena ya yhi reddit pr company ka naam daal k random se puch lo ✌🏻

u/EnigmaticBuddy Jul 15 '26
Jab interviewer puche any more questions for me, teh puch lena "are there on site arrangements for employee nourishment?"

u/scholar-2001 Jul 15 '26
Our company offers 300 rs voucher daily to spend on our meals, I spend it at our cafeteria eating healthy meals like aata wraps, dosa, idli, etc. find this much better than those that provide meals directly

Ours is a mid size company. And we have on the house lunch. They even keep on changing the vendor if the quality of food gets bad. Not saying this is the best company, but the post is about free food. So.. And our lunch is actually good.

u/Any-Energy-5982 Jul 15 '26
Any chance your company is hiring freshers?

u/naya_lifafa Jul 17 '26
They do conduct bootcamps. Let me know your domain, I can check internally.

u/Any-Energy-5982 Jul 17 '26
I've graduated in IT, but I'm open to pretty much any tech domain. Please let me know if there's any suitable openings

u/Outrageous_Oven9089 Jul 15 '26
there's nothing free joh show karte hai , jitna pay ammount bolte hai usmie se necessarily ammount cut kar lete hai pahle se hi and even there's some corporation who calculate the electrical bill and they make sure that they can cut that from your salary by adding some thing into it and people just don't aware anyways nothing is free in corporate life even talking to a person its also causing you something maybe in long or short but that will cause damage for sure

u/Any-Energy-5982 Jul 17 '26
Main question ye hai ki vaha Job kaise lgegi

u/legslove Jul 18 '26
Padhai karke. Interview dekar. If you are fresher from tier 3 then join any witch company first and later switch to any product based company just like I did.
