Abstract
Organizational politics has unanimously been accepted as omnipresent, but its variability according to the Indian context has not been much discussed. This study explores the employees’ perceptions of politics and the coping mechanisms they adopt to handle it. The idea of this comparative study is to understand and explore how the employee’s perception of organization politics and the coping mechanisms vary with changing sectors. Data was collected from a public sector company, a private sector company, and startups. The analysis of the data was done using a qualitative approach. The findings indicated that the employees’ perception of politics, their emotional status, and the coping mechanisms were different in different sectors.
