The economic reforms since 1991 have brought changes to the environment of Indian companies previously operated
and have put new pressures and realities in front of the bank employees, iced with a huge pile of inconsistencies.
Bank Officers have perhaps felt the maximum heat. At this juncture the questions come in mind about the effectiveness
of the employee performance linked with the new or revised thought about the influencing factors for the job satisfaction
of employees. The study conducted was mainly descriptive & analytical. It is mainly to analyze the level and
important factors of job satisfaction among public & private bank employees through a structured close ended tailor
made questionnaire and analyzed with Garret Ranking technique. Contributory factors for job satisfaction of bank
officers of India mainly depend on organizational image and practice of learning organization.
