4: Wait for Syntel 2008 batch to grow up and share their experiences. I m sure Keshav R Murugesh wont enjoy them.

Syntel's poor management and its poor top management's inefficiency made to lay off many sincere employees. How come they share their bad and unrealistic experiences. They say that come grow with us but it is not grow, it is lay-off.
it is not 1-5-10 it is 0-0-0.
