Employee continuance commitment and job satisfaction are inevitably linked to each other, and it is a well-known fact that employee job satisfaction is affected by organizational cynicism.

We focused on determination of commitment impacts on satisfaction of employees. The data was collected through structured questionnaires. The correlation was performed. Besides it, analysis was done with control charts and 3-D scatter diagram. The results showed that organizational cynicism has negative association with employee job satisfaction and there is a significant relationship exists among employee job satisfaction and continuance commitment. Moreover, there is no significant relationship exists among continuance commitment and organizational cynicism. The intricate link between continuance commitment, organizational cynicism and employee job satisfaction manifested in our study emphasizes the need of simultaneous investigation of these parameters.
