Work Culture

"Work is love made visible."- Kahlil Gibran, poet and philosopher

The love and passion that we have for our work at Kotak Securities, shines through in everything that we do. The open, fun-loving and nurturing environment that we have consciously cultivated makes work truly joyful.

As a member of the Kotak Securities team, you will have ample opportunities to prove your mettle and will receive unstinting support from the organization to go ahead and do so. Some of the defining aspects of our work culture are:

Indian values

An Indian-born success story, Kotak Securities is deeply rooted to Indian culture. The values of brotherhood, service before self and treating the customer as king are part of our DNA.

Global standards of professionalism

We have a footprint across 4 continents and we ensure that every customer we serve anywhere on the planet receives the same professional service that our Indian customers have come to expect of us.

Team work

No man is an island, especially in a dynamic and fast paced world like securities trading. We enshrine team work as a key principle and expect employees from across functional groups to come together as a single team –Team Kotak.

Recognition

We know that our employees are the lifeblood of our organization. We are grateful for the efforts they put in to propel the organization to the top of the heap, and recognize the achievements of our team members through formal and informal channels.

Work life balance

Family and friends are never far from one's mind even if we may be at work, and rightly so. After all, the work that we do goes to provide for our near and dear ones. We realize that happy employees are productive employees and hence strongly encourage all employees to strike a work life balance. Especially since stock trading is a highly demanding line of work, we create opportunities for our teams to recharge and rejuvenate at regular intervals.

Flat hierarchy

Endless levels of hierarchy can be daunting for any employee who hopes to carve a growth trail in the organization. Too much hierarchy also slows down decision making and trouble shooting. To keep pace with the dynamic pace of the environment in which we operate, Kotak Securities has an extremely flat organizational hierarchy. This ensures career growth is real, and not nominal for deserving employees and that the best and brightest get noticed easily without numerous layers obscuring their efforts.

Open Door Policy

Information flows freely and opinions and voices are heard without prejudice across the length and breadth of the organization. We encourage employees to engage in direct dialogue with the leadership teams as we realize that it empowers teams and gives them the confidence to excel in their work.

Fun and Games

All work and no play is not our style. Our employees are a fun loving bunch who regularly organize activities and events, contests and talent shows, participate in sporting tournaments, celebrate festivals and so much more all year round. The motto of making work a joy is deeply imbibed among all of us.

Learn while you work

While it is important to achieve targets, it is even more important to ensure that we maintain a learning environment. Every employee is encouraged to brush up on their skills, attend training programs and get coached in areas that they feel need help. This emphasis on all round development is a bottom up practice – from a new joinee to the leadership teams, each and every Kotak Team member is on a continuous learning curve.
