Svantaggi
1. Since the inception of Atomic energy establishment, after continuously diluting concentration of work in job, today the situation is so worse that the management, even a person's reporting officer does not know what for he or she has been recruited. Hence, most often an officer is asked to decide what he is going to do for the coming year whereas his superior does not have any specific work requirement from him/her. Considering such a funny situation, one may imagine how difficult it is for a new-comer to determine his targets which he may be able to achieve by an year time and that must also be beneficial to the department! In any work environment, no work can be done if required support is not available. Suppose today you need any thing for your work. If you get it after an year or so, it may not be helpful at all for your that work then, and this thing the management does not takes care. Salary is not all except for availing of a standard of living. But job satisfaction is much more important and that can never be achieved in BARC. Due to so much restrictions in the working place, currently it is judicious to use the term Basu Attendance Record Centre rather than Bhabha Atomic Research centre 2. There are many perquisites that sound good but when one wants to achieve, he feels a bitter test. A few of them are free accommodation, free medical facility and free schooling. After joining BARC you must forget about free accommodation and must be prepared to spend money from your pocket over the HRA for at least 10 years for staying in a far located rented accommodation which will raise your involvement time in office. The CHSS facility, i.e. the medical arrangement is little better than any state run hospital and most of the residents must go to outside doctors in Chembur locality for minor ailments. School is fairly OK but not at par with the level of other advanced private schools.
