by Tarun Khetarpal on Mar 07, 2010 09:09 AM

TCS is fooling its employees. the employees promoted last year are still waiting for their salary hike.There are just hoping to atleast get the salary of there promoted designation which is due from last year. Its so miserable for employees to work under such condition. How come company like TCS keep the dues of there employees and then shows the profit to the world. This is true story as I am one of the sufferer.

coolie system
by ar on Mar 07, 2010 09:00 AM  | Hide replies

Indian IT cannot become quality service ever. IT is mainly because 99.99% of the clients are in the developed countries like US, Europe, Japan etc, and they will never give quality work to a remote destination and lose control. Additionally in Indian IT software workers are not respected or counted even as employees of the company only labor managers and above are counted as employees. As a result the best of techies always want to work in overseas sites and not in India. They say even if it is a foreign country they are respected a bit but in their own country as they are software workers they are not even counted as employees leave alone respected. For these reasons Indian IT is destined to rot at lower quality levels. Philippines, China are catching up and sooner or later Indian IT will lose its low cost advantage. Golden days of the IT are over. Recently the CFO of Infosys has stated in an interview that now it is difficult to attract talent into IT as there are other sectors that offer better salary and career prospects. To add to this due to cyclical ups and downs IT jobs are not stable and treatment worsens when there is a fall. People put in 12 - 14 hours in front of the computers and if you see in the long run a government job looks better than an IT job for its security, workload and overall quality of life. Add to this the politics in our society, regional, caste, language,zonal and add to it everything. Americans now know every bit of the issues and politics of In

You said it. A major chunk of these employees come from the engineering colleges where they mug all year to pass exams and subsequently clear these IT campus interviews. After a year in their cubicles, they try hard for a :

1) On-site opportunities
2) Property/Car
3) Stocks

Whar irks me is that an entire generation thinks alike as if they're same prototype coming out of conveyor belt.

It is high time, govt stop all sops for IT companies. Just a few people are getting more salary putting the society in peril. Let the IT companies pay less to the workers but give job security in return. Stop hire and fire policy. I dont understand why tax concessions are given only in SEZs, why not give concessions to anyone starting IT industry anywhere if that if at all concessions needs to be given. That way IT industry will go rural just like other manufacturing and engineering sectors.

Indian IT sector is entering Kalyuga phase
by on Mar 07, 2010 06:23 AM  | Hide replies

When Nandan Nilekani resigns from Infosys and takes up secure Govt job, when Govt requests Mahindra Group to shield black deeds of Satyam, and permit him in return to gift Mahindra shares of over Rs 30 Crores to his wife running an NGO , when Azim Hasham Premji runs to waste 250 crores in buying Subhiksha , when Wipro runs to set up Wipro University , when Shiv Nadar allegedly does things under the table to win Govt tenders , it is time to understand that the Indian IT sector is entering the Kalyug era ! NO OTHER SECTOR HAS ENJOYED TAX HOLIDAYS AND SOPS THAN IT . THe small scale manufacturing sector is generating more jobs and contributing more into INdia's GDP than all the IT and BPO companies put together . Majority of this software czars are working for foreigners . When the world markets collapsed , they all came running to Govt for help . THE USA AND EU IT BUBBLE HAS NOT YET FULLY BURSTED ANDMARK MY WORDS , THE WORST IS YET TO HAPPEN . To me a poor worker crushing stones and sweating to make roads is more patriotic than any Billionare IT . Many of them are happy to sell soaps and sanitary napkins and make money . Where is the passion to create Indian products where I can say proudly " Made in INdia with pride "

India is not ablout quality. India is about quantity of money. As an Indian if you are middle class then you done a lot of bad karma in your previous lives and the yamadhootas are our politicians. All the prices have gone up un employement has gone up corruption has gone almost nothing good has gone up only all worst and scam things have gone up Even abroad quite a lot of things are bad so overall I guess new world order is due.

Indian Coolie Syndrome
by Brass Tacks on Mar 07, 2010 06:14 AM

Dhanurkant ! How so true. Indians seem to suffer from the perennial coolie syndrome. Be it the government, hockey, cricket or the IT industry, we are only good being workers and never the leader. We always need a non-indian to lead us and tell us what we should do. Sad but true.

India's hottest destination for IT coolies
by Dhanurkant on Mar 07, 2010 06:08 AM

And Bengalooru coolies top the list having imbibed slavery attitude at fastest pace. Agreed that we have made rapid strides in IT sector in last 2 decades, but we Indians just slog and do slavery work for US companies and their innovative products. And we call it as IT savvinnes. Is there any world famous product from Indian companies ? Like Apple, iPod, Sony, Toshiba, Google, MS, Dell, HP etc ?? And the sad irony is that most of the employees in these companies are from India.

It companies or 5 star hotels
by PS on Mar 06, 2010 06:35 PM  | Hide replies

When I started my job IT 12 years ago,the offices used to have a normal look.
Also offices in Europe and America are in old buildings and in those offices,there is a quality work.I mean to say that people working there are thorough about the domain knowledge and control the whole company whereas people in Indian IT company do a coolie job and still a 5 star setup.
IT 10 years back in India: When IT was new and innovative in India,the infrastructure like building,premises were not very good and also at that time there was less salary
Now: there is too much salary,5 star setup and many facilities given but no quality work.Only maintainence job
Moral: There is lot of money given for brainless job.
Suggestions: We need to come out of it.Even US and Europe might be thinking that they are spending more on just maintainence jobs.
A day will come when these IT and BPO jobs will be outsourced to phillipines and china.
This is just a start.China will capitalize on benifit of cost
Example: Garnier creams ad where earlier there were Indian models but now there are philipines and chinese models shown in their ads.This is a perfect example of cost cutting and remember that these developed countries can do anything for cost cutting.
This scene will not last longer

Well said. Indian IT is mostly show and glamour. Very little stuff and process. Also, most management is funny with their ideas of corporate power and cocktails. Within 10 years, Indian IT will be mostly decimated by SAAS model.

PS .. u look like an Idoit .. with u r idfiotic theorys .. the restriction of China and there senor ship will never make them atleast in back office or outsourcing giant ... they are good in maufacturing sector .. because senorship doesn't affect that .. what do u think that was China sleeping till now when they are trying to prove number one in each field and regarding u r comment on brainless job ... I think u r jeolus of not getying the same pay when u join .. understand the fact IT industry is not a charity trust that it will give heavy salary for any brain less Job its a business and regarding the gariner ad for fyi .. thats just an ad and even in axe, pantine, tc u see complete western or other models .. it has nothing to with IT or any business .. and if u watch intels ad , you will see indians there .. that doesn't mean that intel is going to move all operations here .. accept the fact that india is giant in IT and don't worry abt the future what will happen and what will not

stop dreaming guys... CEO of genpect mentioned that 100000 IT/BPO jobs that had to come to India went to Philippines because of many factors. None of Indian States are as good as Philippines. So, stop dreaming because IT/BPO jobs will no longer come to India..China is almost ready with their english language and we know they are more talented than Indian IT coolie.
