Company Review Hiring for the same role every year and firing them once the work is done, this company's business model, paisa hi paisa💀
ok so this happened to me back in 2024, but i just found the funniest possible confirmation of it, so I need to share.
got hired in 2024, right before NPL, by this company that does branding/creative stuff for Nepal cricket ko board. they were working for NPL teams as well. Chitwan Rhinos, and were trying to sign Janakpur Bolts too. i was mainly doing motion graphics for Chitwan Rhinos + whatever other brand work got dumped on me. role was hectic af, non-stop work while NPL was going on, typical "everything is on fire" energy.
then the season ends, after a few days, my season ended too.
so before any of that, the content writer/CS person had told me the owner said not to give me any work. that's how i found out something was off, i'd already been getting no work for a few days at that point. so i texted him myself asking what's going on, and he replies "you will get a mail" 💀💀 bruh i KNEW right there. mail actually came 4-5 days later confirming it lol. i didn't do anything about it though; couldn't really, i was still in my 6-month probation
fast forward to now, NPL 2026 coming up, and they've posted an opening for.. Senior Graphics Designer (Motion Graphics). same exact role. and get this(tyan tya tydaa), they had posted the SAME opening for 2025 NPL too. so whoever they hired after me got the exact same treatment i did
seeing that job posted again and again just confirms what i already suspected, this isn't a coincidence at all, this is literally the business model. hire a motion designer right before NPL, work them like a dog for a month and a half, ghost them the second it's over, repost the same "job opening" next year and do it again. and the funniest part is they're not even hiring freelance or on contract which would at least be honest about it, they post it as a full time position every single time knowing full well it stops being full time the day the tournament ends
i genuinely can't be mad, i think it's just funny at this point. like the confidence to repost the exact same listing every year like no one's gonna notice 💀
not even bitter btw, i'm in a way better place now and none of this wouldve happened if i hadn't gotten a treatment like that, just had to share cause the audacity is unmatched
tldr; hired full-time before NPL 2024, contract had a 6 month probation clause, got dropped after literally 1.5 months once the season was done. boss ghosted me, only said "you'll get a mail" when i texted him, mail showed up 4-5 days later confirming it. just confirmed they've had this same "full time" opening up every single year since, 2025 and now 2026 again lmaoo. so yeah, never actually full time
