Jissan Group

Our office is basically a flat, number 3C at 17A Jadavpur Central Road. Being in Kolkata 700032 means we are right in the thick of things every single day. Jissan Group isn't a massive corporation with a shiny skyscraper or a big logo on the roof. We are just a group of people working out of a residential building. You have to take the stairs or use the old lift to get up to the third floor. It feels more like a home than a workplace sometimes, especially when the smell of someone's lunch comes in from the neighbors' kitchen. We do a bit of everything here, managing different projects and keeping track of stacks of accounts. The rooms are filled with yellowing folders and old registers that we haven't found a place for yet. Jadavpur is a busy part of West Bengal, so there is always a background noise of rickshaws, shouting, and buses. We have a small balcony where we sometimes stand just to get a bit of air when the office feels too small. The ceiling fan spins all day long to try and keep the humidity away. We don't have a dress code or anything formal like that. We just show up, drink some strong tea, and try to get through the pile of work on our desks. It is honest work and we have been doing it this way for a long time. People around the neighborhood know the building well and often stop by just to say hello.
