1: If Narayan Murthy has made this comment, he is a psychopathic retard. This has got to be the most ridiculous article I've come across from infosys. I really have lost all respect for him after these words. Blaming employees for the faults of higher management...what a dumbass! People make mistakes, and they change! You are not a God just because you are a founder of a big company. You are a normal human being like any other not devoid of faults. Put the blame where it belongs, you moron.

2: absolutely wrong there should be a good human relation dept so that every employee of the organisation should known what is going in an organisation .the employees should have some ethical principles and which should be followed by the employess also .now the main role has to be played by the hr dept to make a good corporate image of the company in front of auidnce .

3: haha...this is what happens when you keep your mouth shut when your bosses are doing something wrong. You think its not your responsibility. Once thing go wrong, you can always blame the managers and jump the ship. NRN is very right in pointing out and not allowing anyone to jump the ship. Its your ship, mend it first. And here some pseudo infoscions are cribbing about their problems. Its true, world is like a dog's tail, it can never be corrected.

Look at our mentor he is busy sucking up the media since he is a partner in NDTV and TOI... Imagine a company he mentor what a mess it will be...

NRN thinks he is god here is a insider scoop do you know that in infosys a mandatory of 9.5 hrs is applicable and they cut salary if we do not maintain the same... They implemented this in Apr 2008 and announced in Jan 2009 since no employees knew.. All employee will have a Loss of Pay of atleast 10K in Jan Salary.... 1 lakh employee and 10K each do the math... How do you think they are announcing profits every quater... Just before the results they go on a mass salry cuts ...

We all know this was not a fault of Satyam Employees and they are as talented as Techies in other organizations.
Mr. Murthy could also be in same situation if Harshad Mehta opened his mouth years back. So Mr. Murthy, take same rest and get treatment in some mental hospital. If you can't help in making conditions better then atleast please don't try to bring down the moral of Satyamites and shut your and Pai's shit mouths up.
Satyamites, Forget comments from our shit head management. All Infosys employees are with you

I guess we have not yet understood i.e. Be Loyal to yourself. The Rajus and NRNs are a product of hardwork we put in. Whether its Satyam or whether its Infosys, If the companies is sinking, you better safegaurd your own interest.

After all these companies are not doing any "Ehsaan" employing you and neither you guys are doing social sevice to them. So my message to Satyamites, Stop fretting about NRN and focus more on your future and as NRN said ...

Love your Job Not your company

and to Infoscions - Help you fellow guys. In time like these, you never know which side you will be and let me bet 100 bucks, if right sizing happens you will be out of Infy before NRN.

17: The quote "We will not touch such a tainted company," was regarding the Satyam takeover. And with this policy I agree completely. The rest of the news is reported out of context. Infosys will not be hiring Satyam employees caz Satyam’s employees are its biggest asset at this point of time and poaching of such employees by other IT companies will surely cause satyam clients to further lose their confidence in the company

Posted by: INF - 12 Jan, 2009

18: I think people have just made it an issue without understanding the real crux of the statement that narayan murthy has made.
1. he doesn't want to take over the company which is very logicall.
2. he doesn't want to further weaken the satyam management by luring their employees.

i think the employees should stick to their company and try to build it again rather than leaving the company when it really needs you.
I wish all the best to all the employees of satyam and whole country is with you.

Posted by: Truth - 12 Jan, 2009

20: "We have asked our recruitment staff not to poach anybody from Satyam as the company is in the middle of a crisis and people will jump ship,".In simple english language it means that Infosys will not try to further weaken Satyam by luring its employees in a wrong way.People here are saying all kind of wrong things about Mr.Murthy and Mr.Pai without understanding the essence of what they are saying.They have far better acumen then people commenting over here.They know that that its very easy to lure Satyam's already trained employees at lowest possible wages at this point of time..But still Infosys is showing solidatry with software fraternity..So please people, first try to understand what they are saying then comment...

21: My dear Satyam employees
First I would like to congratulate Raju for accepting the fact. He did not run to any country / commit suicide, rather hs is bold enough to remain bold and accept the malfunctioning.

Second, I would appreciate him for raising the living standards of 53000 people in and around the world. 53,000 families are benefitted directly and few lakhs indirectly. Till last date the salaries of staff have been deposited meticulously.

I request all Satyas to be loyal to YOUR organisation immaterial of who hires or fires you. Keep your Clients happy by delivering the goods at the right time. You are a potent lot with unnatchable intellectual strength that is in the order of leaders of the world.

All the best.

22: I think his comments has been taken in a totally wrong context…What he meant is that Infosys will not be involved in any kind of talent poaching from Satyam at this time of crisis..Satyam needs best of talent to remove these stains and Infosys will not increse its trouble by luring its employees...

24: Dont worry Mr Pai and Mr. Murthy, we will not join your company which has sex maniacs. why the hell are you worried about satyam people, go and make sure that your books are correct.

Infosys is not heaven and nor Mr Murthy and Mr. Pai are Brahma or Vishnu, shame on you as you cannot provide enough protection to your employees against sex harassment.

Better to work in company where there is cash crisis and not in a company like your's where people use stolen code.

The whole Indian IT industry knows that Mr. Murthy in the past did some project with some copyright code belonging to others.

So pls keep your mouth shut or else your own stories will come out.

32: Dear Media: I just thought of taking a moment and share my opinions. You have done a tremendous job for mordern India by bringing out facts to us on seconds basis. But one request to your entire faternity is to excercise control of the way you share information. The amount of damage done by the fradulent act from Rajus has not damaged the Satyam reputation so much as the way you have been handling the news coverage for last three days. Who had given you the news of 10K layoffs? Who gave you the news of salary stop for two months? Do you have evidence? If not please do not create sensation for your benefit at the cost of 50K employees of Satyam. I hope you have not learnt lessons during Mumbai attack where in your smart moves have helped the terrorists to act efficiently. Please understand that your moves in not only weakening the satyam's image but overall entire corporate india impression. You know how to create panic to make your means of living. Let us constructively try to help India rather than look at our own selfish moves. What I have heard that all the Satyamites have stood united to face the crisis now. Why are you not sharing these information? Have you also known that satyam has also bagged orders during these crisis? Have you tried to create these as examples that a company in such troubled waters is still able to motivate the stakeholders? Have you also taken a pain to find out how the customers are feeling for the employees of satyam? they have shown strong sense of solidarity for them and supporting them. did you ever flash these articles? If not then then please refrain from making speculations. Your speculations have created panic and lose investor confidence as well which made the stocks fall down. If the company is a tainted one, I ask one question "When the stocks are being sold in last three days. Who is buying them? I guess you can ask this question to Government and find out the reality."

Wishing all the best for the Satyamites. I am sure you will come back in flying colors again.

33: It seems Satyamites are really desperate to put such comments about NRN. Finally they found their boat sinking and instead of saving it are tryint to jump and when they see the nearby boat is not helping them they are just shouting over the top. No doubt NRN gave the right statement. He is not a hypocrite like politicians and other IT leaders to keep quite. He spoke the truth. Its a different matter whether Infosys will really practice what they claim.

Posted by: satyanveshi - 10 Jan, 2009

34: Why the hell is Infosys making so much noise at this time of a corporate crisis? I have not seen any one else like Premji or Ramadurai or any other leader from other IT industry making any comments on the media on Satyam saga. However, Murthy and Mohandas Pai has been going tom-tom on TV and media.

Mr. Murthy and Mr. Pai - Building a credible empire does not mean you can keep jumping. There are 100 odd people who have done much better than you.

Please, pass on statements that will help employees at Satyam who are bereaved at this time of hour and be sensitive to people's sentiments. After all, employees are as good as the ones at Infosys or in any other company.

41: Mr.NRN is blamed more than Mr. Raju 420 in this discussion. If you closely look at Mr.NRN didn't do anything wrong like Raju. He didn't put 53000 Satyamates life in crisis. actually it was done by the MR. Raju 420 and MR.MRN just expressed his company's stand on this issue.I believe he has got rights to make such a decisions because it's his company. However I very much feel this comments were unnecessary at this point of time and it brought down his image and he just gave an opportunity to bring down his fame. But the words used against him is completely inappropriate. Guys please be reasonable while making such kind of comments against such great person. Because none of us are perfect and we can't be and that human nature. I really understand the pain that Satyamates are going thru and I morally stand with those friends who are impacted. But it doesn't mean that I should through all my frustrations against MR.NRN by using those ugly words and which makes no different between us and those peoples.
So please be reasonable.

Dear Satyamates, I know it is very difficult time to get g thru. All I can say is please don't loose your hearts because thats only one who could really be with you and bring you out of the crisis. True talent will never let us guys down so be calm and look for the opportunities and you will definitely able to get out current crisis.
All the best. We all with you.

It should be best left to the judgement of the client to choose whosoever he feels merits the project
Also my sincere prayers and hopes to Satyam employees

43: NRN is considered to be an idol for many entrepreneurs. He is regarded to be a matured son of the soil. I bet if the learned section of Karnataka vote for a Lifetime Achievement Award, it will undoubtedly go to NRN.
Such words about Satyam, from such a highly esteemed person like NRN looks absolutely inappropriate. At least, he should have had a look at his own backyard prior to making such comments in the media.
Has he forgotten about the other Murthy from Infosys? The same person who was one of the highest salaried person in the industry, who was also a board member of Infosys. Certainly NRN cannot have such a short term memory. Has he overlooked that Mr. Phaneesh Murthy was involved in a sex racket and had to resign for the same.
So, Mr.Narayan Murthy, my question to you is,does not Infosys become a tainted firm too? Considering the fact that such an invaluable asset of your board was involved in such an heinous act, can we not 'brush' Infosys with the same hue of taint ?

Signing out with a slightly adulterated respect for you,

44: One of my friend told me that on CSC (American Company) email chain couple of managers were enjoying the debacle and this led to war of emails with some Indian guys. Need to give him credit because this Indian guy tried to delink Satayam fraud from quality of Indian work. CSC brass was trying to say all Indian companies are in in trouble including TCS and Wipro and they have to go after this. On Yahoo message board you will see all CSC employees crying about CSC outsourcing to India. At one end the manager is saying Indians lack quality and at the other end same one is hiring more in India. It is prudent for any big company to buy Satyam, people are avoiding the bad publicity. This India guy wrote that Satyam is a case of fraud like Madoff and Enron. This is actually outcome of capitalistic greed which anyone from Putin camp can write a book on.

46: If Mr.Murthy really felt that satyamites should stay back with satyam and give moral support to their company in this crisis, then he should have said it in a different way.

If he really meant the the comment he made then he is really a Murkkkhh.

I feel ashamed when my friends and relatives ask me about the comments of Murthy.

It is like all the top level management are the same. They lose their mind and talk nonsense.

There is no big difference between Raju and Murthy. Raju did a financial damage and Murthy did a Moral damage with his brainless remarks.

Do not bother about a few nasty comments made by top level idiots who forget their ethics and slip their tongue.

Please do not think of quitting the company, as it is time to give moral support to each other to make the situation stable.

Remember that crisis will not prevail for ever and we can get over it.

This's the worst company in a disguise of being most professional environment.. Have you ever seen how the ethics you preach are being followed in the company? Have you forgot the mess you have caused in the National Anthem row? You being an icon of the Indian IT industry, you are expected to give moral support and valuable piece of advice to the company in trouble. Afterall, its an IT company as well.. and who knows well about IT other than you?

It's the problem of the management at Satyam, it has nothing to do with employees.. Do you think Infy management is too transparent? Ask an IMS employee and you will get to know what they think about their own employer... Think before you act, old man.

50: Yes, it is totally unfair for NRM to comment on Satyam just because of one person's deed. The whole Satyam is not tainted. The employees of Satyam are equal as employees of Infy. They are working to rise in their career and to gain experience. To them it does not matter whether it is Infy or Satyam. Wherever they feel comfortable they are free to join based on their merit and interest.

It is totally wrong to brand the whole Satyam as "tainted". Now whatever justification NRM gives nobody will buy it. He has already done the damage to his stature in the eyes of so many IT employees. People have low regard for Infy now due to these kind of irresponsible remarks from Mentor of Infy. What kind of mentoring he is doing for his staff is again a concern. He should have kept mum on this sensitive issue rather than taking the lead in giving his expert comments to project his personality which is not yet fully developed inspite of age.

He should learn something from his counterparts like Azim Premji, Ashok Soota, Shiv Nadar, Subroto Bagchi of similar Indian IT services organisations etc etc. It is always seen as if only NRM, Mohandas Pai, Nandan Nilekani are running the Indian IT industry in media and everywhere. Nandan Nilekani should first set his house in order than give ideas as to how India should progress through his book.

This is not the first time Infosys is involved in a controversy. Earlier also it happened so many times eg. National anthem, sex racket and now this. If Raju is the whole of Satyam then by this logic even Phaneesh Murty was the whole of Infy. Infosys always makes noise in the market just as a publicity stunt to remain in the news. Instead of fame they are only getting infame. Now even their own employees will start distancing & deserting Infy and they have to replace them with fresh hiring. Infosys always has this habit of rubbing people on the wrong side.

51: I will not say any thing bad about NRNM even though it is true. But I just want to ask a question "what is wrong with satyam employee in this mess?". We are thinking about how to delight our personal loan lenders and our dependents. That is what we learnt after coming to satyam, not to humiliate others when they are morally down. This is what satyam culture is. And one more thing is we may do jobs in petrol pumps with pride but will not keep our step in infy campus with a resume in hand in our life. All the best for infy...

54: Mr NRM ...you should be ashamed of your self by uttering such foolish comments. You have not yet gauged the might of a Satyamite....we'll not join ur co even if u drop to our feets....if Raju and tainted that does not mean that whole Satyam is tainted and you won't touch us....if it is so then who infy is involved in the sexual harresmanet case involving ur relative Phaneesh Murthy....Give us time and we'll show u what a Satyamite is.....I pity you and spit on ur infy.....

55: yes, this statement given by infy is anti-law. Infosys should get sued .. unexpect comment from Mr. NRNM, please do not give such cheap comments.
Mr Murthy you should TAKE YOUR WORDS BACK IN FRONT OF MEDIA .

Posted by: Sheetal - 10 Jan, 2009

56: i think the decision of mr murthy is perfect as to not to take over a tainted company and with reagarding to "not to recruit poeple from satayam is just a short term one"

Posted by: sumod - 09 Jan, 2009

57: Also the comment by Mr. Murthy was in context of 'Buying and takeover' of Satyam by Infosys. This context is very conveniently omitted from the report. What a manipulation to get some eveballs on the website.

Posted by: tryth - 09 Jan, 2009

58: Folks, please pick up a dictionary and see the meaning of word 'Poach'. The report clearly quotes 'We will not poach anybody from Satyam' and this is a fair stand when Satyam faces the chellange of continuing their operations smoothly. Rest of the text in report is anyway based on conjectures. Disappointing piece of journalism..

59: Mr. Infy Murthy, don't be childish and spoil the name of the country in this way. Obviously it can damage Infy's prestige. India has been growing to no1 position in the software industry. Do you know how many of your employees are happy in your organization to management.

60: I don't know the news is true or not, but if it is then i must say i didn't expect such comment from Mr. NRNM and if it it is not then media please stop making profit from someones loss, when u should bring all together.
and all Satyamites, don't worry there are hundred numbers of companis in industry and not every company is sick.

61: Do you think Infy's recruitment is the best?. Every one knows there are some jack's(Having consistency academic records) have been recruited after passed all the standard laughing stock written/other tests. Please give some respect to the corp employees that they are the actual workers than the monkey management.

62: Narayan Murthy - Its like any other name in th IT industry. Please do not consider yourself as GOD. Raju served industry for 20 yrs and now that brand is no more... I am sure every one is cooking accounts but for GOD sake please do not comment like this - It tells everyone that how selfish you are in your thoughts...Do u think you would gain anything from this.....NO. Its only short term dear...Oracle was once down like this and now you see...there are examples, I think we should consider India as a brand and not different entities among India at this juncture.

Posted by: Deepak - 09 Jan, 2009

63: Mr Murthi, If whatever is correct what we have read about the articles which u have told already regarding the Satyam Emplyees then its better worst part of your thinking and your selfishness. I hope u should stop saying these cheaper words. Even what i think u should stop scretching ur head and give ur dull sugestion forcefully to others. I m not employee of your or satyam but Its shameful to heard this from your side and your copany. Dont you think that u r making yourself more important to the IT industry. In fact your comments says that you and your emplyee are working from last 20years and nobody else exist in the surrounding for ur success or failure i dnt think what is correct figure on paper or actual(May be making fool u also).I hope u should goto 80s again and start scretching your head. This is not your problem, i hope this is human nature after a certain age which stops working and that time u need rest at your home.
This thing may be going on in ur company also WHO KNOW HOW MUCH INFY IS HONEST.

64: This is one other example of ridiculous reporting by media on Infosys' comments on Satyam. Below are the statements in quotes:

Mohandas Pai, HR, Infosys: “We have asked our recruitment staff not to poach anybody from Satyam. The company is in the middle of a crisis and people will jump ship�.
Narayana Murthy, Infosys: "We will not touch such a tainted company" - on Satyam's takeover.

With these statements, the shameless media in an attempt to display a sensational headline, reported their own version. The websites and television ran headline that "Infosys will not hire Satyam employees" , "We won't hire anybody from Satyam -Infosys".... Also, a media cited an unidentified source saying ".....a person familiar with the matter, who asked not to be named, said that Infosys would refrain from even hiring domain experts or project managers from Satyam"

All these modified versions caused an outrage form Satyam employees, blogs and other readers. The reporting was altered to the extent that the readers thought, Murthy referred the employees as tainted. (Evident from the article comments)

If you read Pai's statement, even a sporadic reader will understand that, Pai asked his staffs to avoid Poaching (which is the practice of recruiting people from other companies by offering inducements) .
This is something every other IT company should follow for Satyam to recover from this mess, under a new management. Infosys can easily offer employment/higher salaries for client managers, project managers, especially the skilled SAP developers/consultants, the area where Satyam has its strong hold and the same area where Infy is aspiring to outgrow.

Employees holding these positions faces and engages with the customer directly/indirectly. Only these people could convince their customer that Satyam will bounce back from its current situation. Poaching these employees would easily result in losing the customers, which will directly affect the jobs of many Satyam employees who are engaged under a client. Infosys and other companies can easily employ few hundreds/close to few thousands, but no one can absorb 53,000 employees. Only if the clients remain, Satyam can ensure the jobs. Best anyone can do is to help satyam by not disturbing their next strategy. Having understood this, any responsible company would not poach at this juncture. Infosys had made a responsible statement and media in its desire to make a sensational news, intentionally misconstrued the statement. Looking on the other side, Infosys never said that it will not hire the developers/other employees.

Now, coming to Murthy's statement, any businessman will hesitate to takeover a company whose value is unlnown even to its top management. Infosys being a prudent company in takeover and mergers, have so far acquired only one company as a whole, in its 27 years of operation.In this economic scenario, most of the companies have either deferred/canceled their acquisition. How would anyone can expect to acquire a scandalous company completely?. In this recession period, it would be difficult for any management to stabilize and run a loss making company. But there are very likely hood of Industry verticals to be acquired by separate companies. This would be the best option for the innocent employees who were brought down to this situation.

65: Guys I am not an IT person but my question is Where is the governmental organizations after this sort of ridiculous statement from Murthy
If its up to be I will put him behind bars under the discrimination act.
People like him are responsible for the exploitation in our country.They are so selfish can jus think of themselves.People like Murthy dont let our country outshine and our people grow.

Posted by: Nishant Bhardwaj - 09 Jan, 2009

66: I think all you guys who are cribbing about the so-called remarks of Mr. Murthy, have not bothered to read carefully text within inverted commas.

He said - "we won't touch a tainted company" and that is in response to acquisition rumors - and he is right - from a corporate standpoint who would want to consider a company with cooked books? Note he didn't say we won't consider tainted employees. Then - he said we won't "poach" employees from satyam and again no problem here because that would make satyam weaker. There were no statements about satyam employees being tainted. Only the mgmt.

This is irresposible journalism - the two statements quoted here are separate and the article falsely conveys an impression that was probably not intended.

67: Mr Murthy, i think u need a break....... u think u r the GOD FATHER of all the IT employees....... let me remind u something....
If Infosys has to go with ur words then u should be the first one to be thrown out.... u knw y... its because of ur TAINTED BRAINS.....

Posted by: Hussain - 09 Jan, 2009

68: Hey Murthi,

I think being in business for such a long you should have gained little bit of commonsence to understand the reason behind this crisis. This is not due to the kind of work the Satyam associates have been doing .This is due to something that has happened in the higher management , might be at the same lebel where you sit in your Company. People like you and at your lebel are the reasons behind it .They give assurance to their employees and screw their career like this. But still we employess would make sure that Satyam would stay in the same track as before. AnyWays we would try our lebel best not to turn up to your company, even not in the worst condition.

Infosys should get sued ..

Posted by: Amit - 09 Jan, 2009

71: Sure, Satyam is facing a very challenging and forbidding time now. However, I am very dissapointed at Infosys's reaction to not hire the Satyam employees at all. When Infy talks about the industry in this state of affairs they say "One rotten apple doesnt mean that the whole basket is spoilt". Then why this discrimination against the employees. What is their wrong-doing and why should they be the victims everywhere? And sure if a rotten apple spoils the entire basket, Infy has had many rotten apples in the past, for e.g. sexual abusers etc.

And just as a reminder, Satyam also houses some best brains in the world.

In this state of affairs, the entire industry should rally hand in hand to improve the general economy and the suffering employees, which will subsequently have a positive effect on everyone.

Right now, a honest plea to Satyamites. Please keep failth and stick together and fight back. I am sure if you are 100% dedicated to the services you are offering to your clients, and put forth all the best you can and with all the faith and sincerity, the clients will see this and beleive in you. That will definitely help in regaining confidence and improving the state of affairs.

All the best to all the Satyamites. And specifically to all the Satyamites who havent given up hope and are fighting back with twice as much potential.

Once agan proves the stature of one of the pioeers in Indian IT industry. So, request all of you to please shut up and plan ahead. I am not Infosys or Satyam !

74: Narayan Murthy thinks that
1)His company is not services--it is a product based.
2)In india only 2-3 companies are there and every one is eying Infy.
3)He forgot Satyam has many employees who have worked with many product developed companies and have better expertise than him as far as Technology is concerned.
4)He might forgot that he is not bill gates.
5)He might forgot that maximum satyam employees leave satyam and join companies like Oracle,Microsoft,motorolla,Sun Micro sys,CSC--IBM--endless.
6)He might forgot that Satyam has a virtical called SAP which is world renowned in industry and is competing IBM and in IBM the case studies of Satyam VIRTICAL is presented.

75: To My Dear Murthy,

Please be professional, Don't give such idiotic statments ,if you do not want to take Satyamites...don't ...why you want break those guys further, they are already great turmiol. your freaking statements will affect them further and in way you are suggesting to other companies to not to take them as well, Fraud is done at top management not at lower level employees ,I hope you understand.

Posted by: Ravi - 09 Jan, 2009

76: I have worked for Infy and Satyam too in my earlier days, and I know how things work in each of these organizations. I would rate satyam much better for the open work culture and ability to voice your interests as an employee, than that in infy. Whereas Infy's employees wait on their managers what they should do every day!

Wake up Mr Murthy, clean up your shit first before blaming the innocent employees.

This is not satyam or Infosys employees issue, this statement from Murthy demonstrates his maturity.

And they value the ediot Murthy.. Huh..

All the best........

78: My sathyam friends,

please do not mind his comments.

Actually he takes exams in Infy when ever he wants and like that he has become a teacher rather than a leader.

He always treat us as if we are in school and he is the head master.

He forgot that worldwide many good works are being done by many companies and they dont have a teacher like him.

So he is little screwed person.

Dont give a weightage to his words.

Posted by: softy - 09 Jan, 2009

79: Well, the stock of Mr. Murthy just plummeted in my personal world. There may have been some employees that are bad but to paint a whole swathe of innocent employees with the same hue is ridiculous. The employees are as much victims as the shareholders. This is similar to accusing the victim of rape of improper behavior.

To give benefit of doubt to Mr. Murthy, he may have been talking about in the context of acquiring Satyam ( not touching it) or even making sure that Infy doesn't poach from a company in trouble. Otherwise, it is tasteless stuff from Mr. Murthy.

81: I fully appriciate all non satyamites who have expressed their solidarity towards satyam employees during tough times UNLIKE MR MURTHY.

I believe there are many great leaders in IT industry who have never made such cheap comments like Murthy.

Thousands of Infy employees and lakhs of other software employees have extended their solidarity towards satyamites and shared satyamites pain during tough time.

After all the might of India lies in it's people in the form of well educated software employees from different companies and we belong to same family.

Satyam has earned billions of dollars for our country for long time like other companies and One or Two NARAYAN MURTHY can not break the sprit of Satyam and the sprit of Indian employees.

He might be cheap enough and follish enough to make such comments but all are not foolish.

More over If Murthy thinks everyone is running for Infosys then he is welcome to think like that.

Anyways as far as salary, work enviornment,Leadership exposer we got from satyam does not need a approval from Narayan Murthy.

Thanks to entire reasonable IT industry for expressing solidarity.

Satyam Fights Back.
Long live esperite de Satyam.
Long live Indian IT industry.
Jai Hind.

Employees cannot be made scapegoat. Everybody has a right to work based on the skills possessed by him.

I just wish people see merit and not what company he belongs to.

It would have been a different scenario if infy had stopped hiring satyamites to ensure that satyamites support Satyam in this situation.

But for now, does not make things better. Infy is painting a bad picture of Satyam and encouraging Customers to take even negative stance..:(

Expected better...

Posted by: Manu - 09 Jan, 2009

83: Wooo Mr. Murthy has given a solid comment just not on Satyam but also on satymites. I want to ask him few questions does his employees knew that he is going to give this comment before hand? Does they knew about how much tax the company file every year? Does they know all the names of all the BODs? Then how can he expect the employees of Satyam would know all this?

As the saying go " when you are over 50 your are like under 5" so people lets not take the kid's comment seriously. You know what I am still going to join infosys in future if at all I have to, b'coz I never have to work with him and I don’t think like him.

Get well soon Mr. Murthy. :-)

85: I haven't seen hypocrite person like Narayana Murthy in Indian business world. I have couple of friends in Infosys and Infy is sending them onsite showing them 4 yr exp. person in domain but that person was just graduate 2 yrs. back. Murthy, where your ethics are residing when you billed client for 5 resources and only 3 are working for them? When employees ask these questions to higher management, all are washing their hands by blaming on middle management. I think at that time Narayan Murthy's ethics are sleeping at home. He is not carrying those ethics at office.

Posted by: Hate hypocrite - 09 Jan, 2009

86: Mr. Narayan Murthy is correct in his decision, reputation and prestige of his company he made is very clear. Such a instance had come in the past when a top official was charged with sexual abuse in US, the management of infosys expelled him, though he had given them a maximum of his own but as a businessman '' business is business" clients are supreme and it is US who has given them a platform, they don't had and social impact on their business. Afterall it is business, if clients don't have faith on the company then how his Human Resource and Finance could be secured. It is correct decision of infosys to don't have taint of satyam on their company, it is fantastic strategy, i appreciate. those who are saying that indian are not helping indians should think of long term, let the dust of satyam settle amidst of world economic recession, otherwise it will be very bad impact on international corporate sector and the indian IT companies, will have ruin the indian IT companies.

Posted by: NIRBHAY KULKARNI - 09 Jan, 2009

87: First of all I want to give Infy benefit of doubt. They might have meant it in a good way for the company to sustain through the troubled times. Now we all know how panicked ppl were in times of GTB bank and ICICI bank rumours. Satyam cannot sustain such panic and they cnanot afford to loose most of the employees and support a their clients, let alone handle the current situation.

Given that, Mr. Pai should have been much clear to drive such message rather than being hypothetical and vague.

I'm and ex-infoscion too so I have following questions,

1) What will Infy do of their current employer who had Satyam experience? will they sanction those experience and demote them or give them pink slips
2) What will Infy do of those ppl who left Infy for Satyam and then are now willing to come back to infy now? Will Infy bent its rules for them>
3) When Phaneesh Murthy incident occurred did Infy give in its credibility? He was the one man show then, wasn't he? Infy covered up the episode and fired him and moved on, didn't it? Hell of all the transparency which NRN boasts he did not even let the public know where infy went wrong. Clearly Infy was putting up with Phaneesh episode as long as it gained. Of course I did not suggest a parallel from that episode to Satyam's situation, but still Infy cannot have it either ways. So Infy is also a tainted company by its current stds. It cuts both ways Mr. NRN

We all know how Infy is a hypocratical company. By seeing how much ex-infoscions are cribbing here i can only imagine its a loose-loose situation for both Infy and Satyams image

Posted by: Sam - 09 Jan, 2009

88: Narayana Murthy is right and he is actually helping Satyam because Satyam requires their employee support. However I strongly disagree with him towards his remarks on Satyam (tainted Company), after all he is from the same shit who does similar activities in the name of 'Business strategy'


I do have friends in Satyam and I pray for them, of course will extend my helping hands by any means if I can.

I dont know what he said.But if he said that - "We will not touch such a tainted company," in reference with acquiring Satyam, then he is quiet correct. But the title of teh post is . If he really said so, then it is unfortunate. But it appears that the title is given by the "siliconindia news bureau ". In that case its quite misleading.If so, please dont create panic in this way.Please confirm that the title text is your creation or given by some Infosys mngmt person.

96: Kudos to the media for making a mountain out of an anthill. Please look at the context of the comments. The "we will not touch a tainted company" remark was made by Mr. Narayana Murthy referring to Infy buying out Satyam. And the word Mr. Mohandas Pai used was, "poach". Poaching is predatory and to my knowledge is very different from plain hiring. The media is looking for a story for which it may even create one. Let us not buy into their interpretation of events.

It has nothing to do with their hiring plans! This is unfortunate for many who are working with Satyam and many of those who are not. However lets not twist and turn part information as MEDIA does in few cases!

101: I am not a Satyam employee, never was. But I was shocked to hear Narayan Murthy's comments. It brings out the petty rivalry that must have existed between him and Satyam. His comment that Satyam is a tainted company reeks of pettiness. A company is never tainted, only the leadership is. Does NM mean to say that all the innocent employees are tainted too?

Shameful comments from a person who has been placed on a pedestal for a long time now.

Indian industry should strive to salvage the company and its innocent employees while people responsible are dealt severely.

Mr Infosian,

Stop thinking that you are the ruler.
You cannot rule, you are not a KINGPIN of INdian IT.

These kind of IDIOTIC statement are not going to shake the bravery an dareness
of satyamites.
We are and will continue to stand by our Organization "SATYAM".

You guys are no where in comparison to us.
You people think that now you can comment on us, you are wrong. Keep a hold on
your views.

Many of your leader were Idealistic earlier now they are turning up to
IDIOTIC.... have a control on your leaders and educate them not to be
overconfident. not good for your company.

I do appeal here that now as the satyam balance sheets and finances are being
analyzed, PLEASE AUTHORITIES PLEASE, Do REVIEW THESE FINANCIALS FOR ALL INDIAN
IT COMPANIES at a TRANSPARENT LEVEL.

Then we will see what kind of comparisons can be made.

Now I understand there is no values and professionalisim--It is only greed.

This is what is true about India.

I request all satyam guys, however big you become in life please remember Murthy's comment and give them tough challenge and much stronger than ever before.

I request all IT engineers that join hands and take up the challenge and lets show the world how we can ground such a person who has no respect for innocent IT workers.

To all Satyam workers, GOD is with you because he knows you have not commited any crime and so you will win in the end.

At this moment I pray to god for fall of Narayan Murthy like fall of Ravana.

109: this blog is against all south indians. thats why they taint nrn and others. they used to spam my email and later i unsubscribed. NRN has no parallel, and people who are writing against him, please read the entire article even before you write against such great individual. I am not in IT but research but know that its NRN who is the architect of IT development in India. the work he has done is simply unsurpassed. think of akshay patra and how can you even say that he has no humanity. He has been quoted out of context purposefully because this blog is from a dirty anti-south indian

110: By calling Satyam a "tainted" company he definitely means the entire company including its employees. He & his other directors should be cautious while making such comments as it can backfire as it is happening now. The image of Infosys because of them is taking a hit. Indians are emotional and such comments only fuels it further. He should not bundle everybody by saying "tainted". He should realise that the company is not tainted, its only the board which is tainted. With age people gain wisdom but Mr. Murty seems to be loosing it with time going against nature.

And those supporters of their bosses, feel for your fellow professionals in another company who are feeling humiliated by comments of your insensible bosses. Don't try to justify their comments. My ex-manager used to say "Communication should be judged not by what is intended but by how it is perceived". Because no one can see intention.

Why its always Infosys that gets caught in controversies for making such comments and put themselves in an awkward situation. Remember the comment on National Anthem 2 years back in front of their overseas clients. And then they have to give clarifications to justify it. Its commonly found that Infosys makes more noise unlike other Indian services companies. The feedback should reach them that stop trying to act too smart and mind their own business instead of poking their dirty nose in all matters by making such loose & casual comments. And don't try to defend themselves later on. As he says "Satyam does not make the Indian IT industry", the same holds true for Infosys. Tell them to treat employees of all companies with dignity. They keep talking about human capital and then make comments to hurt their feelings. Companies like Infosys and Satyam are not made by the founders but by employees who nurture it with their sweat and it is time these so called founders & mentors realise this before they loose their respect, if at all there is anything left.

And one advise to Mr. Murty - never think of joining politics as he will loose his deposit if he stands in election. Try at your own risk and don't blame the "junta" later.

112: Before posting such direspectful remarks for NR Murthy, please check out the exact wording said by Infosys Chief Mentor [["We will not touch such a tainted company," ....while commenting on speculations over the firm's plan to takeover Satyam.]] . He never intended to avoid the intake of SATYAM Employees but only has refrained from merging SATYAM with INFOSYS which absolutely makes sense. He has commented nothing else on hiring people from SATYAM.

116: Its really unfortunate to what had happened till now but
I feel like its the time for all of us to stay united.To the Comment that Mr.NRN has uttered , I partially agree and his intension was to give the impression the Clients around that we still serve you all and maintain profitablity in whatever the business you do, thus he portraying all IT Companies as One (India Inc.). His meaning of not recruiting is been misunderstood, what he says for all the satyamites is to serve the client as usual instead of jumping to other rival firms in the middle of the project,by moving suddendly to other firms all the projects which satyam is handling now goes in vain and Clients projections will be hammered to an extent,then Clients will not have confidence on India Based IT Companies in future that hampers the IT Sector in India very Badly.

Instead of fighting lets try to come out of this crisis situation.

There surely must be a glitch in the news.

Posted by: Piyush - 09 Jan, 2009

120: Hello All, This is just to grab your attention to clear out the misunderstanding that has been created here. Regarding NRN Murthy, the only statement made by him is "We will not touch such a tainted company," (as mentioned above) as he refuses to take over Satyam as a Company and merge it under Infosys. He has never commented on 'Not hiring Satyam Employees' but has only. There is surely a misunderstanding here and the news has been interpreted in a wrong way as Mr. Murthy himself is a firm believer of 'MERITOCRACY' (Hiring people based on Merit and talent).

Mr.Murthy you mean to say that they are no backdoor jobs in Infosys , cmon wake up to the fake cv's fake experience certificates in your company? .The point Iam making here is that TIME HAS COME that all Indians must understand and implement that HONESTY AND INTEGRITY IS STILL AND ONLY BEST POLICY that ensures credibility.This comment from such a respected leader shows rank opportunism to degrade all the satyam employees as TAINTED , If that's the rule then entire Infosys guys should be phaneesh murthy's.Is It So Satyamites its time show Self belief and fight back to establish credibility for yourself and stop being job seekers BE JOB GIVERS now.You want an action plan to revive your career

126: If there is one humane person in this industry it is Mr. Murthy. He can stand taller than any other leader in the world. There are many people who are emotional here and calling all nasty things about NRN. NRN has set again the right standards here by not acquiring Satyam. If it is done more and more people will practice fraud thinking that some one anyway will bail them out. It is again NRN who set the right standards all companies in India on how to treat and take care of their employees.

Engligh is the language that has got to us here in the IT industry in comparision to all other Asian Countries including China. We all need to go and turn the pages of the english dictionary and understanding the meaning of "poaching" Meaning one:to take and use for yourself unfairly or dishonestly something, usually an idea, that belongs to someone else: Meaning two:DISAPPROVING to persuade someone who works for someone else to come and work for you:

Mr. Pai again a fne individual has set teh right standards for other companies by saying them dont poach Satyam employees in their hour of crisis. This does not mean that they will refuse to ofer a job for someone from Satyam if he voluntarily resigns from Satyam and applies anywhere else including Infy.

Only those who are fleeing satyam in hundreds and thousands are causing immense damage to Satyam than Mr. Raju.

Please have your head on your shoulders.

127: For all those who support Narayana Murthy, including infosians, listen to this.

53000 employees' livelihood is at stake. Their families, extended relatives & friends are worried. This has a big social impact. Under this circumstances, Murthy who is a IT icon of India should realize and understand that entire nation and even internationally people will read between lines as well and so should exercise caution while saying anything. He need not give encouraging words, but should not add fuel to fire. He can take such stand of not hiring people from satyam, but he should explain the reason for the stand. Instead he had repeatedly mentioned satyam as bad apple and tinted company. He could have said that Satyam top management or board is tinted or bad apple. I guess he had become too old to give controlled speach and so restrict himself from appearing in meadias and talking about serious issues.

133: The level of misinterpretation of statements and the context is amazing.

While NRN's statement was in the context of acquistion, Mr. Pai's was in the context of not poaching the employees. If Satyam indeed is going to be salvaged with some arrangement, Mr. Pai does not want to jepoardize that by knee jerk recruitment plans. It's fairly a sensible stratgey. The incorrect interpretation has somehow unwillingly generated huge number of hits and responses.

Things are being Misinterpreted and a great human with moral value has been unnessasarily blamed for a crime someone else has comitted. Please people, satyamities have to have strenght. A selfishness is always there with any induvidual , and so any guy with talent will find another job to fulfill his needs. No company can stop him.

Have some sense while using language Mr. Micheal. How would you feel if someone calls you that way with your words being misinterpreted.

It’s a much more surprising that Narayanamoorthy has given such a statement. Hey Satyam guys don’t worry....As Narayanamoorthy said "One Satyam does not make Indian IT industry", I believe that One Infosys will not fix the fate of Satyam employees. You have got much more than that outside.
Satyam as a company will regain its power very soon

142: Guys,

I guess the comments made by the heads of Infosys is grossly misunderstood and quoted out of context. Mohandas Pai is very clear when he is asking his recruitment team "not to POACH" anybody from satyam a the company is middle of crisis.

I believe we are a part of same economy and nobody can be alienated in this.

I hope Infosys come up with more clarity on this to avoid all the confusion.

Thanks

147: I wonder why so many people fail to understand what NRN commented was about the takeover of Satyam not about the Satyamites. I really applaude Infy's decision of not to hire Satyamites. If Infy (for that cause any company) would hire employees from Satyam, then Satyam might lose it's talent pool. I believe all those people who crib on this issue believe Satyam is gone for ever.

153: Mr.Murthy shouldn't have made such a statements and it is completly unfair. I know one person who works in Satym and he came from a challenging back ground with his hard work he joined in satym and he is first one to come up work and work in IT in his family. I don't think he whould made anyother mistake other than joining satym. I am sure there are many such a people out there, I am not sure why they should suffer for the crime committed by some heart less people in the organisation. Now it is been habit that hitting innocent peoples for everything. I think Mr.Murthy contributed his share.

Satyamates, don't loose your hearts our talents will never let us down.

Its not the mistake of satyam employees.
Employees of Satyam must be respected, since they made the company run many projects succesfully all these years.
Its the huge mistake of the top management, who are involved in this scam and they must be blamed.

155:
There r 2 statements n both r from diff. gentlemen:
"We will not touch such a tainted company," said Infosys Founder and non-executive Chairman N R Narayana Murthy,
"We have asked our recruitment staff not to poach anybody from Satyam as the company is in the middle of a crisis and people will jump ship," said TV Mohandas Pai

Thus it’s clear that NRN is commenting on d acquisition of d co. (not employees) whereas MDP commented on d employees.

163: Guys, I agree with Sud. I urge you not to be misguided by reading the headline alone! (headline looks deliberately sensationalized) When murthy talked about "not touching the tainted company", he is talking about takeover. When Mohan das pai is saying "do not hire from Satyam", he is saying "do not poach now", which means "do not fish in the troubled waters". It reflects sympathy towards the company rather than apathy towards employees. When it comes to "tainted" comment, Murthy is not talking about employees at all, since takeover has more to do with company financials than employees.

Definetely I would like to support Satyamites, who do have good technical skills on JAVA, J2EE with 3 plus years of experience.

If this comment has been given by you then i think you dont know know the real meaning of Chief Mentor" which you claim to be for Infy".A mentor is a person who helps and support people during problem.If Mr Raju ahd done something wrong atleast he had the guts to accept that.I would like to ask you what mistake did the Satyamites do, if for one persons mistake you say the complete employee are of the same cader and "We will not touch such a tainted company" then what should we call your company for the act done by Mr Phaneesh Murthy's, A company of s-----.
