Summary/Abstract: This paper studies the impact of organizational culture on job satisfaction of the employees taking into account their gender and age. The current study was conducted in three Information Technology companies in the city of Pune, state of Maharashtra (India), with an effective sample of 220 IT professionals. The responses from employees were collected using organizational cultural profile and job descriptive index. Data was analysed using descriptive analyses, stepwise regression and t- test. The findings reveal that organizational cultural values such as fairness, growth opportunities and reputation of organization have a positive effect on the job satisfaction, whereas organizational traits like aggressiveness have a negative influence on job satisfaction. Further analysis revealed that there is a gender difference in the perception of organizational values.
