The purpose is to gain a comprehensive understanding of how organizational culture influences employee engagement and job satisfaction, providing insights for HR professionals to create a positive work environment. The study adopts a theoretical framework that incorporates theories and models from organizational behavior, human resource management, and employee engagement literature. Key theories such as the person-environment fit theory and the social exchange theory guide the examination of the relationship between organizational culture, employee engagement, and job satisfaction. A systematic review approach is employed to analyze and synthesize existing empirical studies, theoretical articles, and case studies. The research methodology involves a comprehensive literature search across various academic databases and the examination of relevant articles that explore the impact of organizational culture on employee engagement and job satisfaction. The findings of this review indicate a significant correlation between organizational culture, employee engagement, and job satisfaction. Positive organizational cultures, characterized by strong leadership, clear values, effective communication, and supportive work environments, are associated with higher levels of employee engagement and job satisfaction. Conversely, negative cultures, such as toxic or hierarchical environments, hinder employee engagement and diminish job satisfaction. This research contributes to the existing body of knowledge by highlighting the crucial role of organizational culture in shaping employee engagement and job satisfaction. HR professionals can utilize these findings to develop strategies that promote a positive and inclusive culture within organizations, ultimately enhancing employee engagement and job satisfaction. From a social perspective, understanding the impact of organizational culture on employee well-being can lead to healthier work environments and improved overall job satisfaction. This review paper provides a comprehensive synthesis of the existing literature on the relationship between organizational culture, employee    engagement, and job satisfaction. By focusing on the HR perspective, it offers valuable insights for HR professionals and practitioners in understanding the significance of organizational culture in fostering a motivated and satisfied workforce.
