Sacked Wipro employee alleges harassment
Bangalore: An ex-employee of Wipro has filed a harassment case with the Electronics City police against some senior officials of the company after his services were terminated, reports Bangalore Mirror. Ram Manohar G, a native of Hyderabad, has alleged that he was confined to a room and harassed by his seniors, and was finally forced to quit. The 37 year old techie had been working as a team leader in the organization for the past 15 months.

According to Ram, he joined Wipro on Dec 3, 2007 and was unlawfully sacked on March 10 this year. Earlier he was working with MindTree in Bangalore. In his complaint, he alleged that he was confined to a room for a couple of hours at a stretch on several occasions by the higher-ups, and asked each time to resign. "It all started when recession hit the IT business. As far as my knowledge goes, some seven to eight thousand employees have been sacked during the last couple of months. But looking at my 11 years of experience and good track record, I was not really bothered about my services being terminated," he said.

In his complaint, he said, "I was confined by Anuradha Raju (Assistant Manager, TED, Testing Services, BFSI) in a conference hall inside the campus and was forced to sign on some blank papers. When I asked for the reason, she threatened that they would blacklist my name with NASSCOM and ensure that I did not get a job elsewhere."

Ram has also accused Ganesh Halapeti (Senior Project Manager, AXA, Australia) of abusing him in vulgar language over the phone. "He threatened that if I did not sign on the blank papers, my career would be ruined. I was also ordered to come to the office and work despite being sick." He also approached the HR Department about the incident, but no one paid heed to his grievance. "After I was sacked for no proper reason, I am in a state of shock and am facing acute financial problems."

Saurabh Govil, Senior Vice-President (HR), Wipro Technologies said, "We have not seen the complaint and would not like to comment before seeing it. The ex-employee in question, Ram Mohan, was employed with Wipro. We will not be able to provide any specific information on the individual due to employee confidentiality."

Govil said that the company would provide all the necessary co-operation and support to the investigating authorities in the matter. "We have a very robust process to deal with employee grievances. We have not had any complaints of this nature ever before. This may be an isolated case," he said.

1: Every company are misusing their powers. They abuse the employees and create an unhealthy environment. I know wipro senior management have given approval for such illegal sacking.

2: Hats off to the person who had guts to complain. Do any one of have the similar guts to highlight the harassment problems in wipro?

3: Ram had audacity to protest against these perpetrators of crime in India and Australia. As I can see large number of victims in this comments area, why these guys are getting the inspiration to boldly report these crimes to police. I presume the HR managers threatened them of the consequences after the complaint.

4: Employee is working for Vertical managers and horinzontal managers are giving the performance rating for the best performers and ignoring Vertical managers and business appreciation emails. So many instances are there where NI rating was given to best performers.
If no IT boom, then employees would have gone to European countries, would have spread accross the world or Gov. job etc. and with out any stress they used to work.

5: Was going through the posts. Here are my thoughts:
1)Companies, all companies, exist to make profit, give returns to its shareholders. Essentially to make money. Do not know of any company which is always willing to make losses, excepting PSUs in India. The quicker we youngsters realzie this the better. If we dont we should look for NGOs as employers who do some good for the society.
2)IT industry has provided lots of employment and money to millions of youngsters in the last 10-15 years. I shudder to think if there was no IT boom. May be many of us engineers would have been selling mobile phone sim cards, credit cards at malls and markets, working in some Lalaji's manufacturing unit at Rs 8000 pm or on the highways as construction engineers. Better ones would have surely gone abroad.
3) In their frenzied growth companies have gone and hired people from campuses all across the country. And we all know what is the standard of these campuses, with folks walking in with fat cash and getting admitted, passing out by hook or crook etc. SO essentially garbage in and garbage out. Looking at the language and grammar used in the comments looks like many of people here are from these colleges.
4)I am sure there will be some good guys from these D grade campuses but very few.
5) These folks have it very good so far, Going to US and saving loads of money, sometimes even beyond their wildest dreams
6) Businesses face downturn and people not up to the mark are let go. These folks, and US is a prime example, find either lower paying jobs or go to different industries where thier skills are better matched.
7) IT industry, looked recession proof to all the employees. No industry is.
8) Once the IT is back to mormal growth no one will even go to these sites or waste time on these columns. All this talk of Union and all will vanish. UNITES will get disbanded as the members would have found jobs by then
9)We already have a union, which is such sites, which give vent to our fury. But why dont we start using our brains instead of crying wolf?
10) Wipro or Infy or IBMs are not the only companies demanding performance. Go to their website and check the manpower numbers in their financial reports. All of these companies have let people go. Business conditions have forced them to become less tolerant to perennial benchers who will only go onsite or threaten to resign. They have started demanding performance from employees.
11) It would be ridiculous to assume that all the companies and their so called conniving, unfair managers will let go some of their best performing employees to write abusive blogs and comments and notes and news items and keep all the morons in the company.
12) Pl understand that all of us are managers and nothing stops the companies from terminating the contract and letting us go, no court can do anything here. The release letter will simply say terminated. Will that be better? Who will give employment to a terminated employee? If they are asking some of us to resign then it may be in our own interest for our future. Yes if some of them are treating unfairly then we can go to court. Else it is just tilting at the windmills.

Arthur,
1) An IT boom does not justify unethical and corrupt practices. A single employees life is far more valuable than a million getting employed.
2) Have you heard of the story of the farmer who killed his goose which used to lay golden eggs? That's what Wipro has just done. Vishal Yadav dies on Aug 28th. Observe the sequence of events after this: Labour laws are exempted for 2 years in Karnataka for IT companies as on 1 Sep. There is a rumour that Wipro is planning to promote a few employees (I bet, its again the top management). More than 2 new orders disclosed within 2 weeks - so as to capture the media. Arthur, i bet you a thousand that the top management has freaked out. They dont get their sleep anymore.
3) If the companies can issue a termination letter, why aren't they issuing it? Let me tell you: Integrity issues (fraud), sexual harrassment etc attracts a non-tolerance policy. These activities can be proven in court without doubt. But non-performance is a relative subject. This cannot be proved in court. Secondly, if the employee approaches court, more than the legal issues, it is the reputation risk that worries the management - which they hope to cover up easily.
4) Arthur, i can assure you that these are not perennial bench cats. These are performers whose projects were ramped down. Almost 10k are on bench currently. But due poor management, the company continues recruit, without considering the bench.
5) I beg to differ with your point that without IT we would have been getting paid an 8000 pm. Its a paradigm. Besides, past achievements cannot compensate the present-day downfall. Does the manager appraise his reportee for performance 15 years back?
6) Once IT is back in swing, rest assured - Wipro is bound to shut shop since no performer would join this company. Since once if a performer is asked to leave under the tag of non-performance, its clearly below the belt. No performer would ever join these companies henceforth.

As an end-note: Anything grey is black. And Wipro is clearly black.

Hello Arthur, sorry to say but I am surprised to see your faith for crap that you have put here. If thousand people tell a lie that does not turn the lie into truth. If you beleive so then you are having the same sick mentality what Hitler had. Take a look around, India is growing and everyone's salary is going upwards and same is true for comodity prices as well. IT people are being paid highest but not all people. Take the salary of Wipro fresher and you will see it is lesser than salary what freshers get in L&T or in any other technical gov job. So you have put completely wrong facts here.
And here discussion is all about wrong unethical practices of HR and managers. How can you justify taking signature on blank paper, talking vulgar words. Such HR & Managers are shame for the country. Even if they go abroad they bring shame to us. And we should make sure that such people DO SEE PERSONAL LOSSES FOR THEIR BEHAVIOR. But thats not happening, and exploitation continues. UNION formation is a neccessity to avoid exploitation, unethical termination and office behavior. To name a few, Wipro puts unreasonable bonds for any good training it imparts on its employees. A person going abroad, gets bond period. It does not give industrial trainings to keep its people upto date. All it does ask people to work, even after normal working hours. There is always so less people on bench, as if they stay there for long they will get pink slip. Its salary is worst in the industry. People are just a use and throw comodities. And no one can justify these. Yes people are free to quit but even that is also very painful at wipro. And Wipro is a company which does not even deserve to operate in India, but it does. Thanks to huge population and people like you

8: Dear Friends,
In below discussion we can find definition of NASSCOM in author's own words. Here I am giving definition of NASSCOM what I found from WikiPages.
NASSCOM is an association of software and services companies to facilitate business and trade in software and services and to encourage advancement of research in software technology. It is a not-for-profit organization, registered under the Indian Societies Act, 1860.
And if we read about NASSCOM, it would be clear to us that this ASSOCIATION is made only to help its premium members to make more profit by creating suitable government policies and an conductive environment. It mediates if its' two big members' interest conflict with each other.
What we should see here, that
0. NASSCOM is a legal body registered or known to Government.
1. even biggies need their own UNION to get best out of powerful governments. That is why today these companies are ruling countries, not the government. These companies are allowing politicians to go corrupt only in those areas where these companies' interest is not being impacted. And of course these company don't mind common man's misery in day to day struggle.
2. These companies are paying high salary only based on common understanding. This will never go beyond a limit which is uncomfortable for other companies. NASSCOM is there to short all this out.
3. In future if required they will be sharing employee's database as well, among themselves. And a common list to identify person who is in habit of switching companies.
4. They pressurize government for SEZ and levying of export duties, policies on intellectual rights etc to safe guard their interest. See how in WIPRO people are already working 45 hrs a week and how premzi declaring that SW people are earning very high salary, at the same time getting lands at cheaper rates for offices and paying no export or import duty to government on SW deliveries.
5. And best example how HR and managers are able to threat employees that they will be blacklisted for employment itself, though still NASSCOM has to sort that out with all its members. Till then no blacklisting. But question is how far is that day when this blacklisting will be accepted by all member companies?

And then comes the question, if government is not able to control these companies, how ready we will be to fight our case?
That is why I am repeating the importance of UNION. We have to be together to achieve the benefits of democracy and of being one, powerful enough to put pressure on government to legalize our collective actions.
I must agree, IT people are being paid handsomely and they should save today for tomorrow. However, there is no doubt that young kids(so called rookies) will be paid less for more work meaning they will be exploited.
And many will be thrown out at the time when they will be needing job security most. And if this happens for just keeping the profit margin high, then GOD only can help us and our beloved country.
Probable Cyber crime, may be even hardcore crime, naxalism cannot be denied. And during that time also companies will be making money in fact more money than now.
Only workers, employees and common man will suffer.

We always need a guard to maintain the balance. And presently this is what lacking in IT industry. I am not giving another sector example as I am willing to concentrate on IT, which I know most.
In this forum you are free to say bad/dirty words about companies management or HRs, but remember they are not the one who are being disturbed by these discussion.
I am sure there will be no impact to them. In fact good managers or HRs will be hurt for being part of profession where some of their colleagues are bad. And we need good managers and HR. But what to do with those managers or HRs who are always carrying an air of pride and hollow ego. For such guys we need an UNION to safeguard our interest.
I went through UNION URLs posted here. Some looks credible but not credible enough. None of them have filed a petition to legalize employee union in SW industry. Ram is slowly loosing to corrupt system and no UNION can even talk on same.
I am not expecting UNION to go for full fledged war against Wipro or HCL. But some initiative like filing a petition for our basic rights.
May be with some trimmed rights but right to associate with an UNION local to each SW company.
We need to start and later we go further like these UNIONS can have a representatives in one big countrywide UNION, extending further to a global UNION.
I will go with one such UNION who knows how to start, without having any second thought.

9: How did Ranjan Acharya, Veeraghavan and Vishal Yadav die. Who are responsible for this unnatural deaths. Wipro senior Management should be held responsible.
Posted by:raghavendra - 07 Sep, 2009
10: Dear Vishal,

I do not know you. However,as an ex Wipro employee,I will remember you as a wonderful and skilful employee of Wipro.

May your soul rest in eternal peace. My deepest sympathies goes to your family and friends.

Your loss to Wipro is immense as you have helped the org. Every bit counts.

Let us get together and pray for him.We should not indulge into any discussions that relates to his cause of death.In this world of magnet and miracles, let us not point anyone on the probable cause of death and blame one another for we are humans and our perception will always be different.

Thanks

Ankit

11: WIPRO has lost its ethical values and unethical issues are prevailing day by day due to non techie managers and HR harrasment to the employees. They forget all the favours and revenue generated by the employee in a moment.

20: Hi All,

I think there are various reasons involved and a variety of situations where this can/could happen.Unless we know exactly what happened in Ram's case,we cannot point anybody.

Why should we blame the companies at large...There might be these handful of donkeys(engineers and managers) who are involved in this stupid favouritism /nepotism / ye apna he / vo apna nahi, things....I think the onus lies upon those smart,watchful wise senior managers who can identify this shit and throw it out of the premises....

We don't know what Ram did or for that matter what the concerned managers did(to him).

My learning from this is,go to any extent to ensure that one does not suffer and vice-versa help those who are in a position to control this from happening..

21: Hello Friends,
This kind of sean is not only in HCL or WIPRO. It is also applicable to Perot System. One fine Friday morning, got calls from HR and asked we have an very urgent meeting, please report by in another half an hour. When people reached HR, simply they said that, you are laid off please leave the premises and we will settle every thing and will send to your address and they took a forceful RESIGN letter. People who argued more they were given with TERMINATION letters with bad conduct. I have seen so many people who are under performed but they were having good faith with some senior managers, so they are out side of lay off list.
I will agree this is all with bull shit manager's( who are not even fit for trainee - dirty minded fellows) management.

22: I do feel sorry for the victims of these kind of acts of injustice by the so called big companies. However, why is it that anything and everything only about "IT or SOFTWARE" gets highlighted or gets attention and not the other sectors?

The situation is much worse for people working for Non-IT Sector. People in IT atleast take home decent salaries when employed while the ones working for Non-IT Indian Companies will have to suffice with their meagre salaries with no extra/ additional benefits whatsoever. There are very very few of them who provide benefits to their employees although I have not come across even one in my 8 yrs of working with different Indian Companies.

If plight of people working for the IT based MNC's is miserable,then the situation of the non-IT techies working for Indian Companies is pathetic.

I am a Non-IT Professional and I am going through the same kind of situation and I guess I have no choice but to put up with it or quit.

I seriously believe that woking for Indians & Indian Companies will never get better.

26: Guys let me tell you that every company today is far more sensitive to performance than they were 2 yrs back. Obviously non performance has no place in today's context. People will be graded based on relative performance and whoever falls below the cutoff line will perish. Its simple boss - even team australia follows this principle ruthlessly and thats why they are consistent performers year after year.

Now let me comment about Wipro. I have been working in Wipro for quite a few yrs and its my 5th company in my tenure of 16 yrs. Wipro definitely has extremely robust processes and has a lot of focus for its employees. That doesnt mean it has to tolerate non performance. Unfortunately whoever is an under performer would still tend to believe and proclaim that he is a genius.

My advise to all frustrated souls is to follow Rahul Dravid's example - if you are really good prove it once again and make a comeback. According to most people in this thread Dravid should have filed a lawsuit against BCCI for dropping him on performance ground (inspite of serving the team for more than 10 yrs) - right? Instead he did what a real genius does - prove himself again. Do you have it in you?

Judge not for you shall be judged too. It is unfair to compare Ram to Rahul Dravid. Wipro is not rehiring him in the next millennium. Also a fired employee will not find another job because judgmental people like you who are prejudiced will believe BCCI is right and continue to play ball.

What you are saying is correct . I am not sure about the case that we are discussing here however few points need to be considered
1) The way he was sacked .He was threatened .
2) As you rightly said performance is a key factor but let me know who measures the performance.In some of the cases it is judged by managers who are technically poor and came from Non IT industry not written single line of code in their career.How they are going to judge the performance .That start applying those dirty management priciples ( not found in any management book) .Also lot of politics is involved (I hate the word politics which came into IT industry not because of technical staff but because of those bull sheet management staff)
3) That person might be victim of such politics

Hello everybody I know what kind of treatment we wiproits got when we were asked to resign from company, I have worked with wipro, and i myself faced this from wipro HR team. 2 months of harrasment every 3 or 4 days they will send mail saind some discussion and in a closed room they will threaten you. the kind of harrasment what they did is definetly lead to this kind of situation, we worked with the company day and night for its growth, we thought that its our family, but what ever the treatment they gave is harrasement at the end. most of the engeneer people who got sacked are top performers, they got awards for their best performence, but HR team never considered this just they terminated or sent out employees even without proper experience letters, just think you are serving company with sinciarity and after 4 years of your service they say that to resign and if they will give you some bad remark on releavin, or what ever, your 4 years of service is gone. your dreams your hope everything is gone. we are not cheating, we are getting paid for our work, not for sitting there. then why did they do like that.

38: Buds,
This is total nonsense.
Wipro is a company of 1 lakh employees. You can judge that the company is bad based on the opinion of a moron.
As the number of people increase, definitely there will be conflicts of interest. Certain times that goes to a level where it becomes unmanageable. Ram's is one of those cases I believe.
The comments regarding lay-off and all, I am working currently in US. And luckily I still have job. A lay-off happened in my company two months back. And the experience was horrible. One fine day morning, some of the employees were not able to get access to office. Talking to security, they came to know they were laid-off. And people who were laid off were allowed inside office to get their things only along with a security, that too for 1 empl., 1 security like that. It was kind of you were in jail. I has too horrible to see my friends and colleagues leaving the company crying.
And few of them on visas were asked to leave the country within 2-3 weeks.
Tell me guys, this is better or your half-salary is better (question)

Nothing in this world is perfect. And also, all these companies are working based on American capitalistic culture. You tasted the sweetness of IT culture one time. Now is the downturn. You need to face now the other side of the same coin, it is the layoffs.

Mr Manoj,

Thanks for bringing out the another deamon face of Wipro. If the company has to lay off,then it should follow some ethics. Wipro is a company which doesn't have any ethics. I have worked in Wipro for quite a period and i know about many unethical issues prevailing in Wipro.
You yourself have said that there are certain things which have gone out of control in Wipro, just because of its strong employees' strength. Who is to be blamed for this. If Wipro doesn't has capability to manage such a large number of people, then why does it hire so many people? Just in the madness to earn money and to remain ahead in the competition. I know how does it exploit the freshers. They are being trained in one technology, and then suddenly asked to work in another technology or they are being trained in a technology at one location then at a very short period they are asked to move to other location because there is no project available at the same location. This is the Height of Mismanagement!This is just a single case point. There are many other cases in Wipro which can be talked about.
Policies like ombudsman, Spirit of Wipro, "There are no shades of grey, its either black or white" are just bullshit and nothing else.
How many of wiproites know that both employee's and employer's contribution towards PPF are deducted from the employee's salary. QPLC which is a part of employee's CTC, which given once in 3 months and that also not 100%. Part of it is deducted stating that the domain hasn't performed well. While in Wipro i haven't seen any of the domain performing bad. Its just a way increase the company's profits while blowing of the employees' pockets at the same time. The transportation charges.Oh My GOD! there invariably increases..Never decreases..no matter the fuel rates go down or up.
And this all have been happening since the time when IT was at its peak of boom. If you atlk about the sweetness of IT culture, specially Wipro..then lemme tell you..It looks sweet from a distance, when tasted, its sour like neem or aamla....If you talk of American culture, i am sorry to say that just calling each other by names doesn't bring American culture in the company.

42: IT companies especialy WIPRO doing this sort of sacking of employees without any reason. They do not bother about the future of the sacked employees. With so much resource and assets, they do not care to see the welfare of the employees. They recruit through campus and put them on waiting for 6 months to 1 year after completion of their degree course, mostly B.E., How much pain and money these young engineers would have put in for completing the course. With the lucrative invitation, these companies take the young engineers and sack them within a year without any reason or hearing an appeal from the employees. Now the sacked employee will be on a desperate mood as they are without any job or experience for 2 years after completion of their course. Does these companies HR Department heads not have any humanitarian consideration before taking a harsh action like sacking? Why can not the employees be warned before sacking so that the erring employees, if at all in the eyes of the HR Heads so what warrenting for an action ? Assets can be created and amazed by employing poor youngsters. As there is no organised labour sector in the IT companies, the employees are treated like bonded labourers. What is the use of the companies when it does not have humane for their own employees ? Will Premji live for 1000 years to enjoy the wealth and assets he is creating out of bonded labourers ? Let this be brought to personal notice of Premji. So that he will have humane touch on his HR Heads.

But what about people who are tortured & faced the above not in public.Bharti Airtel Services Ltd is being one of the worst companies in these kind of cases,But nothing gets notified outside people who r in lower level suffer
a lot. It all happens in internal politics. Take from Top to bottom level designated want their own people to survive this is a period only for chamchas & buckets in the industry who survive. HR plays great role giving ideas how to screw one guys career & life in organisation. They make good performer not to perform utilize him, make all his hardwork achievements efforts to be enjoyed by the wrong person who does not deserve it. If anyone tries to fight for it he vl b sacked from office to his residence also. This is present scenario happening in our country.

Regarding Wipro Technologies, I know they are playing very unprofessional tactics to remove ppl and avoid paying compensation to forced resigned ppl. Employees are under stress. I think co. will pay for this in the long run.

Hi Saurav ,

Would like to know more about the situation Particular in US and Canada , I am planing to continue my higher studies higher studies in Canada , is there also the situation same like US , I am planning for 2010 intake Fall session for MS in Computer Science.
I am reachable @ 09739007277 Please give me your contact number so that I can discuss and if possible change my plans accordingly

Shiv Replied to: saurav - 29 Aug, 2009
63: Dear Friends,
As all of you know comitting suicide is always a bad option.
So what if you have 3-4 million loan on you and bank will take your home from you in which you have put all your savings so far. So what if you have a family to look after, your ailing parents, your kids' education etc and you are out of your job.
Even worst than what I have mentioned here, can give you only a temporary stress. Believe me, if you have courage, with time not only you will compensate your losses but you will go beyond that.
But what if you commit suicide. its permanent loss.
What happens when a person commits suicide:
1. Person's family and loved ones get a trauma to haunt them throughout their lives.
2. Companies or persons who made him to commit suicide will hardly be impacted or punished. Life will be usual for them after a while.
3. You are earning source of your family which is lost forever. Now who will take care of them?
4. Companies or persons who made person to commit suicide gets another person.
5. All your policies like Insurance will NOT PAY anything to your loved once as all agreement gets void for commiting suicide.
6. Any great cause like UNION formation is negatively impacted due to this. See here people have forgotten about Ram's case and talking about a dead person who can not fight forget about winning. Focus is lost and effort of Ram is also wasted.

IN SHORT YOU AND YOUR ASSOCIATES LOOSE AND VILLAINS GET BENEFITED. PLEASE DONT TAKE SUCH STEPS, NO MATTER WHATEVER HAPPENS.

And for your information, NASSCOM can not balcklist a person who has not broken any contract or who has not done anything illegal. You can always say NO if someone asks you to sign a blank paper or ask you to resign for no reason without any fear.

Check how many persons has been blacklisted by NASSCOM.

And filing a case as Ram did against these anti-social elements for their deeds is always an option.
Its true any company has authority to sack a person with due notice and/or three months salary, and so employee has right to leave with proper notice and/or salary cut. But what is wrong happening in IT industries are
1. people are being asked to stretch all the time meaning two persons doing the job of three persons and third person is being thrown out.
2. people are being thrown out or put on salary cut if they are not billable for few days, just because its recession and whenever required persons with skills are available outside. In other words contract of employment is being broken by company.
And no logic of making profit etc goes here, as companies can not have rights to exploit people. And market pressure to show percentage profit can not result into increased load on workers at lesser wage and job cuts.
3. Companies can not throw people out without proper compensation and for reasons of keeping its profit margin intact. In other words companies has to share risk of bad times as well.
4. What so ever, harassment and unethical behavior at work place is not acceptable.

As IT industries are maturing, it is bound to happen that people will not have higher salary every year due to saturation in demand. But if higher management is willing to maintain its hight salary growth year after year, it will tend to exploit people. And therefore, we need a guard, a UNION, which makes sure that exploitation is not so easy that whenever recession happens, lower management people are thrown on streets just to keep high growth. UNION and labour law is needed to ensure that a higher management salary cut and low operational cost is far easier than laying off people in thousands.

US and Europe have laws which protects employees' rights, which is missing in India, and only an organisational effort can get some thing similar in place in India as well.

68: what crap and waste these comments are. people a buisness will do what is good for them not for employees. thats what business is about making profits. if something is to be done then we should pursue a Nasscom or other bodies to make rules for severance. today they are such that companies resort to other ways. Abusing Wipro may not help all business are like these. AND WELL WE INDIVIDIUALS ARE NO DIFFERENT. WE ARE EQUALLY SELFISH LIKE A WIPRO OR A INFOSYS OR A IBM OR ANYONE.

IF you do not AGREE ANSWER HONESTLY THE BELOW:

do you give all your salary the maids who work at your house, no why dont you give her bonus when you get it, why dont you allow her to maintain similar lifestyle like you? if she does not mop the floor or do cleaning propoerly why do you change her and not continue with her? why do you fire her? why?

if you lose your job will you not fire the maid which work for you? if business is not doing well it will also reduce costs say employees.

Crap your discussion is and its not Wipro or other companies as business is about profits and not charity. WIPRO is still far more cleaner than some others. Having worked for a decade i know. If something is to be done labour laws to fire made easy and a good severance (exit) pacakage to be bargained from. NASSCOM should wake up, Government should wake up. Also we need higher PF, Gratuity other social Security like we have in US.

If the management says that we are running oout of business. why do they stilp provide the perks to the snipor executives. Also as someone mentioned earlier. Not only wipro made profits becoz of hard work but becoz of sacking employees. This is prudent from the Senior executive's remark when he was asked about sacking employees.

Reporter: You have sacked more number of employees this quater. your comment on that.

WIPRO Exeecutive:(Not mentioning his name) Sacking employees will improve our margins next quarter so we will realize those effects (profits, Profits , Profits ) in the next quarter. If theey are so concerned about Profits why cant they sack those Senior Executives who are getting hefty package ?

Indians have not got the real independance. People are always there waiting to spoil someone else's career. In the IT industry, the managers think that they have come from heaven. They think they can do what they like. They were also an fresher once upon a time and have come across all these stages. Most IT employees except below the manager level are facing the same issue. The managers get all the work done and screw up in appraisal and give wrong feedback to senior management. The only way to stop this is to start a union for IT employees. If all the Indian IT employees stop working for one week, then the world will witness the real scenario. This is applicable to all Indians abroad. Our brains are being drilled deep like a bore well. For money sake, people forget the basic discipline of behaving. we are being treated as slaves, don't know when we will get freedom from Indians.

People are talking about how there must be a union to protect the employees, how deserving people are made to work for a very less salary, how PPF is getting cut inspite of promises made by the companies, how people are committing suicide due to work pressure. I want to make some simle observation on this.
When are we going to understand that all companies operate on profit margins. Any employee thus, coming under expense column of a company. In all cases, I dont see any fault from the company side in what they are doing. I see fault from employee side. When the profit margin decrease, companies will do whatever they can to increase, whether that is forging it (Like Satyam), cutting Variable allowance or Promotions (Like TCS) or extracting more work with less and less salary. What you and me must understand (and it is high time) that this is not going to change. We in India are experiencing it now, in US this has been happening for the last 30 years.
As part of my work, I meet a lot of people. I know how it is out there. But of all the people I meet, very few are their who are willing to do something about. Most of them just talk, with friends, co-workers or sometimes on forums like this.
This is a very general comment, but if any person wants to take charge of the their future and not just waste time talking about it, this is my mail id: ajoyajay@gmail.com

Many people are frustrated with the way layoff is done ind India under the guise of performance issues. That does not happen in US. Companies layoff employees, publicly announce it and pay severance package. India companies don't want to own the responsibility of layoff and pay the severance. They brag about their non-existent humane face saying they didn't layoff people even during recession. In fact many Indian IT biggies including wipro shamelessly discriminate based on age (they call it bulge mix). People in US would have sued their ass of if this had happened. Unfortunately we don't have any labour law against age discrimination in India. Pl stop comparing US and India. If you want to give up saying it can't be stopped, that is your choice. I know some people are uniting and forming IT union. Hope we can have more bargaining power as employees and treated with dignity and respect.

dude, UCF is not a new exam. It existed as TPG in BFSI earlier. People are asked to give exams in certain topics even if they have no prior experience it. They are likely to fail and asked to quit once they are unbillable. No wonder both the reported cases of harassment/death are from BFSI vertical. I heard that the PES division head wanted to layoff 10%, but his kindhearted deputy didn't agree and was able to bargain it down to 7%.

dude, BFSI is not whole Wipro so 90 percent of the Wiprorite didn't know about it till UCF came in......UCF was new to us, which is being mandatory for everyone...and yes, you are correct... these tests are made to fail......

I took one of this non-sense test and was feeling so disgusting on the questions.....Those are not to challange employees to enhance their knowledge but to listed them out...

THERE MUST BE SOMETHING, WHICH EMPLOYEE CAN DO
MAYBE DEVELOP A WEBSITE, WHICH WILL BE ACCESSIBLE BY EVERYONE TO GIVE FEEDBACK ABOUT A COMPANY SO THAT PEOPLE KNOW VERY WELL WHAT THEY ARE GOING INTO...IT WILL BE LIKE BUYING A PRODUCT FROM THE MARKET AND YOUVE TO READ THROUGH CUSTOMERS FEEDBACK....

102: What is ERICH,for all stake holders.
I had spoken to some of the wipro employees asking about Enrich.

It is no way entry back to work.

1. The enrich program is about sending employees home with a promise to pay half salary(Actually breaking their final settlement in pieces and claiming that they dont fire employees).
2. People in enrich would not be entertained in any projects for a period of three months
3. The standing instructions to Project managers are "Dont not get people from Enrich program, instead take a campus recruit and put work pressure and get the work out of them at the lowest cost".
4. After three months he/she would be declared unfit as he he/she is not in any project.
5. He/She would be asked to leave wipro with the last piece of his settlement amount(Which they would have paid if he or she had resigned) as they have paid him/her the three months.
6. He/She cannot resign during Enrich program even if they have opportunities else where.
7. He/She would be coming to office twice a week on papers....but in reality he/she has to come to office 6 days a week and work for half pay which is actually him own money which they would have given as final settlement.
7. On failing to do he/she will be black listed in NASSCOM.
8. One must not speak of this to anyone else in the organization(the interviee claims this as "Un-yeilding Integrity" and "Acting with Sensitivity".

103: I am horrified to know that one of our colleagues died because of HR malpractices in WEEP-RO. May his soul rest at peace and all those responsible for the incident be cursed to death. I am ashamed to call myself a wiproite. Disease is at the top (Ajim Premji,Suresh Vaswani, Girish Paranjpe, Pratik Kumar). People like Amit Bakdas, Anuradha Raju and Ganesh Halapeti are only symptoms. I hope Mr. Premji gets some time off from counting his dollars and take notice of what is happening in the company. This company has rapidly degenrated in to a giant bodyshop after the exit of Vivek Paul. Joint CEOs are just a big joke.

105: Is there another suicide going to get un-noticed in Wipro! Yeah they are good at messing up and then covering it all up in no time. I am an employee of Wipro and is working for the same client as was Vishal. Its heard that he had an HR interview the day he committed suicide. Its foolishness to say that a person would be on leave for 3 months and then come to office just to comit suicide! People are made to resign in Wipro forcibily because this corporate dont even want to take the responsibility of firing people. People are harassed by words like "If you dont do what we want, we will put such negetive comments in NASSCOM that you would not get job anywhere in India" and these words come from nobody but the Head HR (Badkas) of BFSI vertical. So I highly doubt that Vishal would have resigned by himself. Police should investigate the appraisal rating he received for this year. Its 3 months over since wipro completed the appraisal process. This year they had targeted some employees from each projects and planned their exits using appraisal process by giving them NI (Needs Improvement). No wonder even if the employee had received an Exceeds Expectation in previous year's appraisal. This is HR policy of use and throw! This doesnt end here. Then they force such employees to resign by humiliating and harassing them, so that they can put a big fake smile to media and say that even during recession they did not fire any employee. Though a person would have worked days and nights for the project and Wipro would have stolen 90% of his hard earned money (Wipro pays its employees only 10% of the money they receive from customers for that resource). Once the project is over they dont wait much to put employee into a program called enrichment where they pay only half the salary and force resource to sign a draconian contract which voids all previous legal documents signed with wipro including the offer letter by threatening them with their unlawful termination. And if employee dont get the project in couple of more months during enrich program, the harassment begins which finally ends with forcible resignation. Employee satisfaction is very low in wipro and many people are waiting for recesssion to get over to escape from this prison of attrocities.

Today morning, we were shocked to see stains on floor of tower S2 ground floor.
yesterday one of our brothers has committed suicide. the security told us the incident last night around 10:30 PM the security at that time was shocked to see a body fall right in front of him on the granite floor, for a moment he couldnt understand what had happened, then he came to his senses, he told that the body almost shattered in the pavement.
Vishal Yadav (Business operations Analyst) Dont know from where but his parents were informed and they accepted the body from hospital...

SPIRIT of WIPRO
Towards 10 AM after the police / MEDIA had taken markings, the facilities, cleaned the floor and people started moving. around that area. Its as though nothing has happened. Not one mail or communication was sent today expressing grief or pity. after all this issue isn\'t a big deal of some big ass being promoted or some idiot completing 10 years etc.
We were waiting for some communication to happen so that we would know the facts instead from other sources.
No communication nothing, only mails like Emerging leaders, K chat etc.

Deducting PPF from employee's CTC is happening not only in Wipro, now a days it is very common in almost all private companies. Before joining a company the HR gives a salary break-up sheet which doesnot show this malpractice. And one will come to know only while getting his/her first salary. So in other terms, we have to contributing for employees PPF from both the ends. And you'll be shocked to hear that even this web portal (SI) is no different than others.

If the investigation turns out to be true, the so-called seniors/higher-ups involved in this case should be black-listed in NASSCOM and barred from employment elsewhere. They should be booted out of the company with no company benefits. Also, they should be booked under appropriate criminal charges and their withdrawn company benefits should be given to the concerned employee for causing him mental trauma. This will serve a fitting lesson to the potential trouble makers in the management of other companies.

lenin, what you want to say is.... if other people can adjust with the injustice why can't we... right?

or is it if other companies treat humans like anything than why should we stop Wipro from doing so, after all even it is also a bussiness firm totally dedicated to make profit and not for any kind of human consideration for employees or any kind of respect for country or society in which it operates.

I think we are not debating about the salary offered to any employee, we are just asking one simple question :

"is it right to harass a human in close room?"

Now please note "human" stand for any one and not in particular for Wipro employee.

and I think we should feel happy that every one is uniting to fight the injustice. Today they might be fighting for one IT prof, tomorrow they will unite to fight against any other kind of injustice... as u mentioned " people who r qualified and getting low salary" and if this blog is helping the people to unite why you want it to be deleted.

120: Just before two months back I was working in wipro Technology as a contract employee. Oneday Suddenly I had Faced the same issue by my manager from the company, while I had not done any mistake. When I faced the issue I came home and simply send a mail to Azim Premjee By puting CC to other Engineers and Managers. After one day I got call from some manager. I went to company and spoke to my manager and the other managers of wipro company. Atlast I felt they did not say anything to the manager, But told me to join the company again as fault was from their side. But I said them to leave the company from myside. Atlast I left the company. I know One thing the behavior of wipro managers are so bad and other thing is they treat the employee like any thing, and use of slang is a common thing for them. So we should not except any type of good responce from them. Cause after leaveing the company also, Sometimes they are cheating with me, Also turchering through the consultance. After leaving the company I faced the lot of problem to get the experience confirmation when I got a new job. So If u really want to fight, take your justice by sending a legal notice from court. If you want then what ever I can I will try to help you. If you want also I can send this mail which I had send to Azim premjee.

3. Take the mask out from Wipro's face before its client base and Indian IT professionals by publishing its malpractices.
4. Personal criticism on Villains i.e. Anuradha Raju (Assistant Manager, TED, Testing Services, BFSI), Ganesh Halapeti (Senior Project Manager, AXA, Australia), Saurabh Govil, Senior Vice-President (HR), Wipro Technologies etc by publicing their posters and exposing their works in professional as well as in personal lives (be sure that would be of media's interest).
5. An oraganised protest before E-City Wipro office with a good media exposure.
6. File an application to High Court, seeking a rule for IT companies allowing its employees to form a UNION.

A Friend of mine has met Ram. He told me that Ram told he could have kept quite like many have done. But he choose to fight for beyond himself, for a greater cause. To bring an awareness among other IT Professionals. Our Awareness, togetherness, and concrete action against the bigger issue will be right tribute to his effort.

I just learnt that he is not keeping well with minor illness. I will meet him over the weekend. There is a group of legal experts, activists, media, Industry experts under formation to take on the bigger issue. To take the movement to its logical conclusion that Ram has started.

A close investigation and discussion has shown that the noxious is much bigger than what meets the eye. With the current arrangement of the noxious, it is almost impossible to curb such mass exploitation in short time. There is a need of reforms and mass movement to change the environment in the favor of the employees.

I would request all our friends here to not forget the issue. And wait for the call by the group to extend your support.

I will invite you all to our formal meeting with opportunity to actively taking part or lead the movement. Meanwhile you can contact me to know detail about the movement and extend your active support.

132: As a ex wiproite I want to list the following points to all.

1. Wipro not loyal to the employee, those who worked hard for sevaral yrs asked to quit because of the recession.
2.Last quater result of wipro was better that other companys, the reason is they are sacking experienced professional and bringing in fresh graduate, I would say this would hit wipro in future.
3. As a big organaisation they can get those exp professional back when they need, but I would suggest dont join in wipro ever.
4.Instead of sacking people they can reduce the salary, I hope few other indian company doing that.
5.They have a program called WASE, the WASEans paid only 6-7k per month but they billed with dollors per hr. For one day billing they can pay the salary. This is the way they making profits. It's totaly unfair.
6.Finally Lets spread the news to all IT techies so that they can aware what wipro is doing to get the profit.

133: We read here that Wipro has policy that bars its employ to practice their legal rights as per the Indian constitution.
The question is. Does Wipro have a different law other that Indian constitution, and Indian labor law?

Which law of the land Wipro is following? It is not following Indian constitution in India.
Not following European law in Europe As mentioned by many friends here. That Wipro violates the Visa rule there.
It was banned from World Bank project for 4 years in 2007in the for bribing.
Many friends have mentioned the malpractice in USA.

Wipro is getting tax exemptions. It is getting Land from Indian government to promote Industry. It is operating with India using and benefiting from the Countries machinery, and systems. It is exploiting the cheap human resource available in India.

The only benefit is there are many who get a decent earning to survive, As long as the market is good. With the cost of their severing right, Dignity, and self-respect, and mental peace.

Personally, it is a heavy price to pay. What you will get if you party with a company having illegal practice.

It is alwayes very imposible to proove the harasment cases. As it happens inside the office and people usually do not think of gathering proof.

138: With reference to the warning by wipro technologies that its businesses could be "adversely" affected due to the disclosure made by World Bank nearly four months ago that the Indian company was ineligible to work with the international lending institution.as informed to its American shareholders and market regulator Securities and Exchange Commission.This is absolute nonsense. Primarily it has to keep its house in order. Since several months Wipro is losing its exceptionally talented resources due to self-centered mind-set of its human resources management. As per my interface with several wipro and ex wipro employees it is clandestinely getting rid of thousands of employees in an unwarranted manner. In correlation to this, please visit www.lay-off.org website and read all the posts and comments of various affected wipro employees.World bank had only disclosed what it has found in its inquiry and Wipro said that it could adversely affect our business and results of operations. Losing just one customer and that too in Banking sector will definitely not impact its business. It is trying to diverge from other facts which would result in collapse of the company. The management has given clear directions to its HR to fire people in whatever way possible. So in the near future only incapable, incompetent resources would endure in Wipro. There are many legal cases filed against the company by several thousand ex employees of wipro. There are several complaints against the malpractices of the company. The ex employees have also approached several Unions to fight collectively against this high handedness of wipro management. So Wipro will face colossal rebellion by its sacked employees.

Guys, I do not know if other Indian companies are also practicing unethical business, but I am sure Wipro is doing so. Wipro employees has been black listed in many european countries due to wrong registration processes ( wipro european staff is helping people to get registered with fake address) and even european goverment is helpless to stop such fraud. People are being asked to work with different countries Visa, yes schangen visa allows you to travel to all the european union countries but you have permission to work in only one country for which you have work permit. However here wipro takes pride to misuse european law.And if a person is caught here only that employee will be punished though he is foolishly following his manager's instructions. Its not the end, customers have started complaining that Wipro first sends good experienced people to get the project, but after some time all the experienced people will be gone and new less experienced people will be left trying to run the project, which spoils their work done so far. And if mention this to managers they will shamelessly approve such initiatives, they say we have learned about the work and this experience in our resume will help to bring in some more projects and there are many such malpractices by Wipro. So its not surprising to see Wipro being unethical to its employees. But surely each of the sacked employee must file a case against this company. And I also support the idea of UNION for IT industry as well. This industry is maturing and exploitation will be increasing to book same profit as before. To safeguard human values and avoid exploitation, it is must to have a well defined labour law for this sector as well, and there must be fear in employers to introduce damaging policy for employees without having a very good reason for the same.I believe this can be achieved only by might of a UNION of minimum size of 10K people, country wide. And further to add here, UNION if forces 2 days strike before WIPRO E-City campus, will prove to be a economical slap on company's face, hence it will stick to its policy only if it sees benefit larger than loss due to two days of no work.Now consider 5 days strike :-)
And if you have many people with this movement you have political will also. And don't bother about bad guys or politicians, they are inevitable, and not a reason for not starting some thing so important.

I guess it should more as per the labor law. Wipro operates within India and subjected to law of the land. And its rule cannot be different.

No one can be penalized by any company if they operates within the law of the land. The freedom of a citizen does not seizes to exist if someone joins Wipro. If Wipro takes any action against those operating within the law of the land, then there is something seriously wrong with Wipro. Then the matter is much more serious that we are thinking.

I think so NASSOM or the IT ministry should come up with some solution to protect employee rights and career and future.

148: similar scenarios exist in the other IT giants as well. Most of the superiors in these companies take their subordinates for granted. All they care about is their own success.

149: Good to note that employees feel and went to be heard, I have heard of UNITES Professionals www.unitespro.org, they have been working in this field and I read an article about them in Outlook magazine some time back which had interviews of IT/ITES employees.

UNITES generally tend to act if the company involved is large enough to get them some publicity. I know people personally who have approached UNITES when harassed by the company, but couldn't get UNITES interested enough to act for them. What he got was a lame response "we will get back to you" I have my own doubts on UNITES. There are thousands of small companies (IT) who are harassing employees similar if not worse! But just that media might not be interested enough to say "Ex-XYZ employee complains about harassment" I hope this news doesn't end up as a just another link over website, with lots of comments. Ram's case should get enough public attention to be taken seriously.

151: I totally agree with the issue highlighted. Its really getting over our heads now and we should be fighting back. I am working with Tech Mahindra and believe me, they never do these kind of things also the policies are great and the facilities are not that bad. FMG take very quick action over the issues.
I just want to say, we should learn to raise our voice.

The worst part is, WIPRO the so called Giant had recruited all the 9 pointers of my Institute SGGS Nanded in 2008 being the first company in Feb 2008. So far they havent got the joining and the dates given to them are on 29th December 2009. Are they silly or stupid to wait?
They havent given the exams of CAT or CET as first in November last year they promised and then again March they made the fake promise again and now all are struggling as the market is already down.
Its playing with Carriers who are really in need of money as they belong to very poor families who cant afford higher education.

Wipro, dont recruit if you cant give the joining, let the students not see fake dreams that you are never going to make True.

I am happiest at this point that I wasnt selected in Wipro what is relief.

Premji, show a little PREM to the employee or else your ASEEM empire will be ruined soon if a spark burst our in your employees who are driving you tonns of dollars.

152: Wipro is sacking people or asking them to join Enrich(Half Salary) progrogram because they don't have project due to bad market situation.

1.Just imagine a employee of less merit is getting all the benefits because he's in project.
2.Is this applicable to Top management? Are they getting less salary/bonus?
If we calculate like this- Project's managers (10-15)% salary cut can save two freshers(freshers' salary is also reduced by 10-15%), (10-15)% Salary cut of GM can save two PM,similarly 10-15% of salary cut of Top management can save two GM..then why not over-all salary reduction is happened in wipro(Salary reduction of all by 10-15%)? Why not all should be effected by bad market situation?
Now the situation in wipro is individual getting penalized due to recession, where they doesn't have any fault. Others enjoying the life.. may be they are having less experience or less merit.. or in top management.

153: It's true. Wipro is unethical in everysense. It has managers who think they are gods (dogs!). I feel in Wipro people with 1-4 years in wipro really work hard. Once they become red taggers (a shitty concept by Wipro!) they behave like mad dogs harrassing people who are new to Wipro. Wipro will become a better place if they clean up all top management guys and remove the concept of red, green and shit tag concepts! Days are not far ahead, if Wipro becomes a hell to work , if it continues to treat the employees the way it is treating now. Premzi are you listening or busy in counting money?!

158: It is hardly a surprise. I am also a former wipro employee and it is really astonishing that a company of such global repute has a work ethic comparable to stalinist rule. It has ruined whatever ability, the talented young people who join them had to offer to the country,exploitation of all kinds is rampant and I strongly believe the underworld will be more understanding towards their employees needs than wipro will ever have. They do not even allow the employee deaths happening in their cabs to be reported in the media, rapes go unreported and these are only two major examples of their misdeeds.I strongly believe that a company with such morals will fall under its own weight eventually.Azim needs to understand that selling oil is a bit different than dealing with human resources and the service they provide.You cant take humans for granted.History will tell you that whoever has done that, has perished.

163: Hi Sital,

Yes, its the situation in all the companies. you know there is no written policy in the companies to harash people. So you can not hold any company accountable. It is the top management who are responsible to ensure proper working environment and prevent harassment are accountable.


There are all laws, but the law is not preventing the harassment. Because the execution is not happening.
The reason is no one has fought it yet. Can a chap who has just got harassed can fight it till the end against powerful corporate lawyers?, NO.


What is the solution? Take the example of SATYAM. One CEO went behind bar. The next thing all corporate fixed their corporate governance.


Who will fight it? We ALL AS ONE (Association). Taking one case of harassment, Where we will win in the court, And accountability can be set on one top management to be punish. Taking it to the court of law And fight it tooth and nail to the end.


Against whom we are fighting? Powerful corporate lawyers. And Political connection. Remember they pay hefty money to many political parties. So don't expect to much favor from politics.


But once we win The thing will change for ever. Everyone will get courage to fight against harassment. And the top management give high priority to prevent harassment. Otherwise they will be behind bars. (Everyone fear punishment)


-Should we FIGHT OR NOT-


We can always wait to see if things getting better automatically by gods grace. Till then spend more painful moments. Anyway, we have only one life.


Choice is YOURS

167: It's time "Wipro" was "WipedOut". The entire organization depends on opportunities from the US. So no wonder 8000 employees were laid off. At Credit Suise they are ruling the roost by not allowing any other software and/or resource vendors to apply for business with Credit Suise. t's time for them to go and energies are already under way to ensure that happens. No individual or organization can work in a foreign land by imposing their rules on the country's citizens. This has nothing to do with free enterprise and everything to do with government sponsored monopoly. They are trying to idnetify the US Senator responsible for making Wipro what it is.

Did you ever tried to fight back against the system.....
Why do you think that you should listen to what ur managers / HR is saying.
Just treat them as another employee of the same organization.. they r just doing their job to save their ass.. nothing more than that.

174: I have worked in Wipro for nearly 2 and half years.There are no ethics in the company. Sychophancy prevails in the company.Wipro's HR policies are just bullshit. Policies are made in a way to trouble the employees as much as possible. There are many baseless and wierd kind of policies in the company. While working in the Wipro, i tried fighting against these policies. Wrote to HRs, talked to them, talked to the managers, but zero end result. Infact in many cases my matter was escalated to higher management, but i dint leave my stance. Notwithstanding many discussions and arguments nothing happened.
What i observed in the company was managers and HRs always each others side, no matter even if they are wrong. Who gets screwed is none but a common employee.

I know there are many wiproites who have commented on this forum. I want to ask them, have they ever raised their voices against the ever increasing Wipro's bus charges. I had on many instances, but everytime one or the other excuse.
Whatever policies are made in Wipro benefits only the company and its profits. Policies like "there are no shades of grey in the company, its either black or white", "Spirit of Wipro", "Integrity issues" become null and void when they are in favour of the employees.

185: Dear All,

I don't want to more it longer. Very Short Msg but read it. You all guys know to track your credit record/ history the CIBIL is there wherein Banks will approach this centre to inquire about your before they could process your loan, credit Card and other facilities by financial institutions. Similarly NASSCOM is an org. which has lot of sub folder information containing about each of the member co. & these co. have right to provide any information about their employees, like BLACK LISTING THEM ETC. We all are just sleeping still. We are very active in speaking but nothing shown in action. Just pls don't use rotten words in the blog. If you guys once black listed once here in these org. by doing real mistake or getting in trap if you become a listed one then you can't do anything. Cos will check first their they will not ask you, FYI, this will be like pre-employment check without your knowledge. Hope all you guys go through your documentations when your joining formalities goes. You will have to sign a paper in which it will be said, you will give your employer to check your back status rights(remember it can be done anytime no time is specifically said when can when should not, hence beware of it. HRDs just do it normally with the employees previous employers or references given. As I've already mention these above said org. not in control of normal lay man's to fight for justice. If you want to file a case also in labor court it will take time and even if you will no employer will prefer to take you IN, coz you have created some negative history in your track pulling your employer or Xemployer to the court. No Companys would like to take a chance for this. Brothers & Sisters, I'm a Sr. Manager - HR working for a well built MNC, Im really pity to those who are easily getting trapped this kind of management's wicked play. At the end of the day no one of us can be there without each other. Please understand the situation, tomorrow you might be the one in the trap...so don't ignore if any good things are asked to do. You might think being a HR professional why this guy is guide you to form a organisation. Just simple, you alone cannot fight for justice, you need to have your fellow people to hold you strong to fight against a ORGANIZATION, remember, organisation is big, before they could hire you they will have well set up policies, with a well experienced nodal officer/lawyer to fight for this kind of issues. Unless you have a strong back hold you will not be able to do anything. Being a HR guy many times Ive come across people take offer and don't join or abscond. Tell what should I've to do, though I've a huge Network to black list or find where the person is work and give my feedback to his employer I just ignore coz if not today he will get butt burned tomorrow but it will be late for him to be realized. Sorry, if my words are harsh, here.... as Lisa said, Id strongly recommend you guys to form a ALL INDIA UNION for IT, ITES & Non IT employee welfare. Just think guys our great men are have their max part of contribution in developed countries standing status. If you guys can work hard in your home country without going out and fight for justice and be loyal... it will not take years for things change... but remember everyone should work sincerely and hard to this goal only then you can achieve with no long time span. I wish all the best to Lisa to succeed in bringing up this Union with a very strong team so that it will also provide just for employers and employees as a single point of contact to bring in truth to LIGHT. Thanks ladies and gentleman who have understood my communication, one last suggestion, those who have not understood this what I've told please read this again and again atleast 25 to 30 times you will understand the message. Because reading again and again will send message to your brain again to understand that particular work/matter to understand it more INDEPTH. Thanks

Wishing you all a very successful career and justice for everything.

This harassment is nothing new for me. If u hear the story of my harrassment u will get tears in your eyes. I was sacked from Infosys Bangalore in 2004 May .Along with the sacking the Project Manager also cast a magic spell on me(he knows a famous black magic technique called kshudhram) after calling me to his cabin. The HAPPY news is that I am still under this Black Magic Spell and the Project Manager(of Banking Business Unit) is still enjoying his life in the U.S. The funniest thing is I cant even go to the police as there is no legal validity for Black Magic guys I am so lucky now I have no other choice than committing suicide because this spell that is cast on me is so unbearable I can assure u that I am the saddest person in the whole world.

Employment lay has some strict rules. Any company in violation to that can be subjected to legal action.

Thanks to Ram Manohar G that he did not go through this and now i am in a state that i will never get a job anymore coz every time a company enquires about me the HR has different stories to say things like i stole a computer and left, i used to steel petrol from bikes so they sacked me and things like that i have a valid releaving letter and also a good track record with the peers.

Azim Premji is also a fraud he done business upto now.He purchased subhiksha and blaming them that they did't told about their losses.Before purchasing any product we will see the pros and cons of a product.This gives us info that Azim premji is not having any knowledge about life and doesn't care for the people.If any person met with an accident we will help him a lot even he is a stranger,but in wipro it is quiet opposite.They laid off sorry harrased and made them to resign about 8000 people.

So,My sincere request to Govt. of india is dismiss wipro from our country.Then half of our country will develop.By seeing this company other companies will learn morals that we should spoil and hurt others.

Becareful freshers don't risk to join wipro.

204: All indian IT Companies should be made to sign a bond with Govt of India that they will take care of employment of an each employee and will not fire them .also they will recruit only those number of employee that are required by them .This should be made mandatory for all employers to work in india and do the business.TCS is very bad company .They fire employee with no reason. one of my friend was asked to resign he was with TCS for 4 yrs now his father has bypass surgery and he need financial support. After paying for Health insurance for 4 yrs when he need financial support TCS is doing such thing.but HR doesnt listem to him and asked him to resign.In IT TCS is known for polcies But all that are bullshit.they give only one week to employee

205: 'Always love your job but never fall in with company b'coz u don't know when company will stops loving you' so no problem when ever you are working on any project calculate your time of work 45 hrs in a week and that's all if work done for more then 45 rhs.collect additional amount for all those time. and if any colleague working more then 45 hrs. in a week without any work requirement then you people decide what to do with that guy. Top management people are not doing any work and getting good salaries so they are bound to remove associates to prove that they are thinking about company and saving company's revenue.

Hi,I work in a non-IT MNC,but service industry,where a more or less similar exchangeable manpower system works.But of course with a 54 hr week(minimum and max is 72!).No extra payment anytime when we are called "to lend a helping hand".Rot!Always the reason given is there is less manpower and everyone is doing it,need more revenue turnover,cost control,others are waiting in the line if you dont want the job,etc.But Sr. Branch Manager is very different.He says the same thing as u've said above.He himself says having a boss like him who cares for everyone,from the washer boy,to the manager below him's welfare and career growth is very rare.Really chewable thoughts you have written.

210: Let's face it from a different perspective: Layoffs are taboo in India. Although our economy is busy aping the west, as far as employee practices go, employers DONOT want to recruit people who are laid off!

The immediate implication, therefore, is that it appears to be more 'preferable' to say that the employee quit, rather than saying that he was fired. And the reason is that our market is a capitalist market (a buyer's market) as far as HR goes. So, the supply is high enough to ensure that 'sacked' employees remain an outlier.

In the US, laying off is common. In Europe, the taboo is similar to what it is in India. So, in the US, getting a job thereafter is not a big issue. In Europe, however, the choices are limited. In India, the choices are even more limited.

I agree that companies should not do that. But, the capitalist wave that is coming into India needs us to face certain realities... One of which is the fact that such companies traditionally, have promoted the 'hire and fire' model. So, this is going to increase in the coming years. As individuals, we need to ensure that this phenomenon should not damage our ambitions and development.

Having a union is probably not going to help soon. The main reason is that unions are lagging behind, in their development, in the IT sector. So, with this scenario, it will be difficult to really 'catch-up'. But eventually, it would. The advantage of the union would be a negotiated solution that is more 'professionally' implemented. Typically, people who would be fired, would be on a list that is cleared by the union. What next? The reality at the individual would remain.

Corporate malpractices like the signing of blank sheets, is a criminal offense. And criminal offenses must not go unpunished (whichever the party is). A developed union could work well to avoid such situations. But, like I said, it is yet to develop. As of now, employees facing this type of situations must come forward and protest. They need to use the media and, we readers must be conscious about this when we recruit next time. So that, we do not make a false assessment of the candidates concerned.

212: The same kind of incident happend with Cognizant, Bangalore. Instead of removing guys in bulk, the HR persons are daily targeting 10-12 persons so that their the company name won't appear in laying off. They are making pressure to employees for quitting company without any reason. When asking for reason they are informing "Company is in very bad situation and not having further projects". While in market they are creating impression that we had never laid off any employee & saying that still we are recruiting.

IT COMPANIES ARE NOT HERE FOR CHARITY. IN THE PRESENT TIMES OF RECESSION IT IS QUITE OBVIOUS THAT THEY WILL IMPLEMENT SOME STRICTNESS. THE SITUATION HAS FORCED THEM TO SACK SO MANY EMPLOYEES AND TAKE OTHER HARSH STEPS. THE HR PERSONNEL ARE UNDER TREMENDOUS PRESSURE.IT IS VERY SAD TO KNOW WHAT EVER HAS HAPPENED TO MR.Ram Manohar G. BUT THIS MAY BE SOME SPECIAL CASE. IT COMPANIES HAVE PROVIDED EMPLOYMENT TO SO MANY PEOPLE, EVER THOUGHT HOW MANY OF THEM DO THEIR DUTY SINCERELY. UNDER PERFORMERS WILL HAVE TO SEE THE EXIT DOORS IN THE PRESENT SITUATION. THE COMPANY WON'T PAY HIGH SALARIES TO THE UNDER PERFORMERS. YOU HAVE TO BE THE BEST AND SHOULD JUSTIFY YOUR POSITION AND SALARY. YOU HAVE TO BE A WORTHY ASSET FOR THE COMPANY OR ELSE EXIT DOORS ARE WIDE OPEN FOR YOU.
I AM ALSO A RECRUIT OF WIPRO TECHNOLOGIES AND WAS HURT TO SEE THE COMMENTS POSTED HERE. I HAVE MY SINIORS WORKING IN THE COMPANY WHO HAVE HAD GOOD EXPERIENCE WORKING IN THE COMPANY. EVEN IN THE TIME OF RECESSION ONE OF MY SENIOR, WHO JOINED LAST YEAR, GRADUATION YEAR 2008, FROM AN NIT, SAID HE HAD A SATISFACTORY EXPERIENCE THERE. THE EXPERIENCE WAS COMPARABLE TO ANY OF THE OTHER IT COMPANIES. HE HAD TO FACE A TOUGH TIME INITIALLY BUT NOW HE GOT A PROJECT AND IS HAPPILY WORKING ON IT. WE SHOULD NOT FORGET WIPRO IS INDIA'S 3RD LARGEST MNC.

Many of the people who have posted their comments are from Wipro and they know what is the true face of Wipro. Being the 3rd largest IT company, doesn't prove anything. I have seen how managers flatter the clients. In Wipro, to become a manager and bring business, person has to be a sychophant, apart from being skilled. Isn't it the slogan of Wipro that "Client is god, no matter if it is wrong." I was told this on my 1st day in Wipro. Wipro sells its ethics in exchange of money.

220: Out of 15 years I have worked half the time in manufacturing and half in IT. I have seen similar things happening in manufacturing after 1996 recession. The things has not changed much till date. I have seen senior managers using abusive language for their subordinates but because manufacturing is saturated sector and once you are out very less chances of re-employment. They take advantages. The IT is also going through the same phase recesion and then saturation. The good days in the sector are almost over. Businesses all over the world are run for busisness. Profit is the foremost and sole purpose. The humanity angle which people has seen in IT for some years is all deceiving. In manpower crisis period companies put a deceiving mask of good humanae, so that they can attract people. When people become in abundance, they put off the mask and show the real face, which you see now. As the IT sector reaches to it's maturity, all big Lalas will have agreement not to hire from one anothr's company. This will make changing job tougher and better chance for employers to take advantage. There is companies worse than wipro like Sapient. They will fire people and immediately go for hiring. This is totally against law. But in this country and elsewhere money matters and these industrialists have money and they buy governments. If anyone of you find time just go through a book called " Rich dad and the poor dad". This explains the whole evil designs of the business people and how a common citizen's life is used by these people. Many of seems to be either youngsters or have not seen manufacturing sector. Harrassment is the fact of life there for years. During 1990-94 companies used to look heaven but turned into hell by 1996 till date. The only solution is the union. IT people must have union. Only this can give them power to offset money effect.

All these HR people are useless.They have no other job other than removing few & recruting new.They are least concerned about the employee welfare in real terms.Under the name of performance Management which is always subjective,they tries to fool the management to save their jobs.Removing an employee under the name recession,meltdown,ect is all bullsheet as all these compenies are making hefty profits & the employee cost is only a merge percentage of their total turnover and hardly affect their profits.This is a bad practice started by Indian companies recently taken from the west without adopting the good like social security,medical care,ect.Will they remove their old father & mother just bacause they are not productive & could not earn anymore.
Remember,the people who are talking about the performance,age,output also have to face the same problem when they bacame 45/50+.Atleast the situation today is better but is going to be worst in near future which these new bread of Management doesn't understand.They should understand that experience counts in the time of trouble.

The moment a person comes in free pool, they hand over Enrich letter to him/her. This sound like Wipro is only thinking to work on contracting and no permanent employment. If Wipro management is not able to get the person on project, it meand Wipro hasn't got any job to do, it means Wipro will soon be ending its story in the IT market. There is no appreciation of the person's effort being put on last assignment and billability period. There is no value to loyality by staying and working the same company.

Azimji need to think that, this time they are touching a very sensitive issue of the people who work in the company, their finance, their personal life. No one would wait to get paid in 1/2 salary and continue in Wipro. This person would also not come back in future.

I think, its a advice to all those who are thinking to get a job in Wipro that, please search somewhere else, since after coming here you will have to face other challenges which are worst that searching a job.

236: I am writing down the truth on what happened at Wipro. Two events propelled wipro to this. Not that wipro was better or an company with ethics before these events. The first event was the economic turmoil and global recession that started last year. The second event was when the Obama administration started regulation of aliens employed by US companies, visa regulations and taxes for companies outsourcing jobs. Similar events happened in UK to some degree as well. Now the result of the first event the economic recession was many US comapanies who were outsourcing to Wipro cut down lot of projects, downsized existing teams etc. Due to which Wipro lost revenue, plus found lot of people on the bench hence led to huge profit margin and operation margin pressure. In order to correct this they started a campaign of laying off people in the name of NI etc. They started schemes like "Rejoice" and Rejevunate etc to cut down salary and employee benefits etc. These were imposed as hard objectives on individual unit HR's who started the draconian campaign of making employee's self resign etc to avoid making it look like lay-offs. As they have a bad reflection on companies image. Due to the second event wipro wanted to appease the US goverment, hence it suddenly started a campaign of diversity at US and Europe to show that they were not only bringing people from India, but are recuriting local foreign employee's as well. Since unlike Indians whom they dont pay well at onsite if he is not at a senior level. They pay local foreign employee's well above average pay of Indians in Employee's except for few. This again put a cost pressure on Wipro. Hence this accelerated the process of cutting cost and hence sacking more people in India. The problem with Wipro was that it was not honest about what it was doing and trying to paint an image of this being a normal process. They also took advantage of the fact that Indian labor regulations are very limited and there are no protection for employee's as done in US & Europe. There is nothing wrong in laying off people to manage cost. But Wipro should have done it in an Honest and transparent manner. It was simply unethical and misonduct by the company and it has certainly left a bad taste on employee's. Many are waiting for the right oppotunity to leave the company. I agree wipro is the worst company to work for.

Another trick employed to harass employees is to ask them to put the speaker on on your phone, and shout over it so that everybody in the floor hears it.

249: No one is against lay offs or organiations making profit. atleast not in my ODC. What we are against is thte unfair appraisal, unfair salary hikes, unfair layoffs and the unprofessional supervisors.
People like Gokul Kamath (fit to clean TOILET) are made general managers. By logging into 'mywipro' i come to know my HR. I havent met her in my 3 years life, Nor does she respond to mails.
there are tons of surveys conducted all result to nothing. Stupid training programmes are made here that dont match to your skills and you are put into it. tif you fail, thats it. They would give you an NI even if you are good at your work. they would even close billability without even informing you.
Appraisal process is a silly joke. My appraisal was closed even without discussion and after my salary hike. Salary is pathetic.
there is absolutely no one to question anything here. ombuds process / MITR etc is just a show biz. People who dont understand you or your problems will advice you.
I also partly blame the engineers who put butter on managers, to get an ONSITE or H1 VISA stamping without considering what impact it makes on the other team mates.

Any people who are happy working here are either
1. Highly paid.
2. Get lot of onsite opportunities from time on.
3. just are comfortable here by attending meetings and bluffing around.

The only people i approve here are the security people wou are very honest and would return your mobile phone if you have kept it. and the IMG people who would help you get back your computers to life. the WIPRO systems are so pathetic here. 512 MB RAM and they wouold load all wipro policies in it that would make it so slow. for everything else we need to raise request, get approval from supervisors who wont even check mails, as they would be busy bluffing around well if we ask him about anything like that, well this would reflect in your appraisal cycle.

Last but not the least
IF you are JOINING WIPRO make 2 points very clear.
ONE
Be sure that you negotiate with the HR for a higher pay in the initial itself. else you are doomed. Coz atleast the salary would be motivational to you you WONT get salary HIKE more than 8% per year unless you are one of those buttering types who dont care for your team mates.
"We will give you only 30% hike from the previous company" would be the tone you will hear which is BS, as you will meet people who will be earning double your pay with half your skills,
Make sure WHAT YOU WILL BE GETTING IN HAND. DONT FALL for the CTC joke.as there are lot of silly stuffs like a QPLC component here that you would get only in 3 months the amount depending on the profit made by the Business unit or i dont care what as its too complicated to calculate here.

TWO
MAKE sure which horizontal you are put in. Wipro keeps everyone under testing services as thats what WIPRO is fit for. So mention your skills E.G. JAVA and see to it that you are put into development PES and alike. else you will be given trainings and will have to write tests on technologies that you have no clue about.

Be loyal to your company as long as you are here. If you dont like this place, leave immediately before they discover it.

Do you think leaving wipro is so easy? If any of them comes to know about what you are thinking they will increase the harassment from that time onwards. And once you put your resignation papers they may threaten you with things like, they wont give you experience letters unless you stay for the bond period. This can be 2-3 months for offshore employees and upto 6 months if you happen to go onsite for a week.

There is lots of bullshitting going around in this company for sure about offers on onsite etc but things never happen at all for some of them while even worse candidates will be at onsite forever.

I strongly support that, the middle level managers in Wipro are worst people and good for nothing. I knew one manager at Wipro Kolkata office, who thaught himself as a king of the office and forced his sub-ordinates to obey his nasty politics. Sometimes he used his official power and took advantages by any means.... even with female employes. I don't believe that higher managers don't know this... but still it went for quite long times. Very recently I heard that that buggerd manager has been sacked....

moreover, they started a new harrasment system of some tests... I am working on a particular technology and all of a sudden I am asked to write practical knowledge based tests on technologies I never have laid my hands on failing which attracts a NI.....and the cream of the cake is that the mail announcing this Lordly behaviour has "CONRATULATIONS, you have been selected for the test" written in the font of 25 all over it.

Moreover, the ethics are forgotten rather were flushed long ago along with Vivek Paul.....the company that lays too much stress on integrity shows fake experience in case of fresh resources to client.

And, inspite of making consistent profits, rather hitting the targets regularly, we are given half salary and enrichment where some apples of "THEIR" eyes are kept billable for doing nothing or even worse, they are in free pool, yet not enriched. Why? Only god knows.

The organization is fast becoming a pool of incompetent good for nothing people who someday will reach the upper echoleons of the company, infact, in our circles, the biggest curse you can caste on someone is hoping he or she wears a red tag one day (Red Tags are 5 yrs WIPRO experienced resources). All those who can, and who ever get a chance to, try to escape, barring those who know that this is the best place for viruses like them to survive and evolve and hold prestigious designations and the most appealing, controlling the lives and fates of the few unfortunates who will be reporting to them one day.

There is a huge policy framework though, but when it comes to the criteria for enrichment, policies change everyday, person to person, situation to situation. Other policies too are being violated on a regular basis.

The list of attrocities is endless, and I have not even started yet......

256: There are too many inexperienced manager in the IT industry, who have no idea about the legal implication of their behaviors and behave like bullies in the school. Forcing employees to resign is a standard procedure in the industry. And there are many psychological torturing methods are in practice.
This is a serious matter and must be investigated as soon as possible. Unless the Employee takes a back step in pursuing it.
If it is found to be, true WIPRO has to act against the guilty Managers and public its policy about employ welfare. Unless of course it is part of their corporate policy to harass the employees and the managers were just working as per the policy. In that case some senior directors will be answerable to this.
There is a law in this country that works. If it does not we will make it work. No one is above law.

My dear Smruthi madam, this case is not only in IT firms in India but many firms in Gulf & the European countries. That's why U can find many murders, extortions, hangings of managers/ top level in the foreign countries by workers(Low & Middle level). After this recession came there is no respect for the staffs who toil hard and they are forced to quit by various tortures and the companies top level dont accept it saying their managers are good and they express their funny behaviour upon the employees saying "Tum choothya ho hamay paagal math banao". In fact the recession today in the market has made the management and its middlemen "choothya". I have this horrible experience in an Indian company in Gulf where "My life has become miserable" and still that trauma persists even after my 2 months arrival. And 1 thing in life I have learnt "Humanity is dead, achchay achchay chalaygaye, ullu k pattay rehaygaye" This dialogue is for the useless managers who feel that they can survive in this world tretaing their employees like this....... Forcing employees to resign is a standard procedure in the industry. And there are many psychological torturing methods are in practice. One method of HR practice is this(Filthy method), as the world runs very fast, employees are fired/ tortured till the last. Nothing to feel about, just leave upon the Lord and move forward. Those days were different, here whatever U do U have to repent it and go.... Yeh haath de aur yeh haath se lelay (Lord's policy). Sorry if I have hurted U. And I feel sorry for that Professional who was forced to resign and he is married. Surely his curses will strike the guilty one day.

261: After many years in software, I have realized that there is no use complaining about the behaviour of organizations or demanding what we believe to be fair. One MNC refused to give me superannuation money (even though it was deducted from my salary when I was employed there) saying I had to reach a certain level/designation to receive superannuation money. Its time to take our lives into our own hands. I foresee that the traditional employer employee relationship will change. No loyalty either side. Instead we are forming a virtual organization, a group of friends networked around the world and we find projects for ourselves and each other. We pool about 20% of our earnings for common infrastructure and backoffice. There is no management, no HR or other overhead and whether you succeed or fail directly depends on you. No one will ask how you spend your time or ask for leave approval. I believe this type of thing will soon catch fire especially if organizations continue this way.

Lets form a good firm yaar and we will be an example for the bullshit firms like Wipro.... So that the generations remember us in good form in future. Beatiful concept with creative mind.... WHY EMPLOYEES LEAVE ORGANISATIONS ? - Azim Premji, CEO- Wipro

Every company faces the problem of people leaving the company for better pay or profile.

Early this year, Mark, a senior software designer, got an offer from a prestigious international firm to work in its India operations developing specialized software. He was thrilled by the offer.

He had heard a lot about the CEO. The salary was great. The company had all the right systems in place employee-friendly human resources (HR) policies, a spanking new office,and the very best technology,even a canteen that served superb food.

Twice Mark was sent abroad for training. "My learning curve is the sharpest it's ever been," he said soon after he joined.

Last week, less than eight months after he joined, Mark walked out of the job.

Why did this talented employee leave ?

Arun quit for the same reason that drives many good people away.

The answer lies in one of the largest studies undertaken by the Gallup Organization. The study surveyed over a million employees and 80,000 managers and was published in a book called "First Break All The Rules". It came up with this surprising finding:

If you're losing good people, look to their manager .... manager is the reason people stay and thrive in an organization. And he 's the reason why people leave. When people leave they take knowledge,experienc e and contacts with them, straight to the competition.

"People leave managers not companies," write the authors Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman.

Mostly manager drives people away?

HR experts say that of all the abuses, employees find humiliationthe most intolerable. The first time, an employee may not leave,but a thought has been planted. The second time, that thought gets strengthened. The third time, he looks for another job.

When people cannot retort openly in anger, they do so by passive aggression. By digging their heels in and slowing down. By doing only what they are told to do and no more. By omitting to give the boss crucial information. Dev says: "If you work for a jerk, you basically want to get him into trouble. You don 't have your heart and soul in the job."

Different managers can stress out employees in different ways - by being too controlling, too suspicious, too pushy, too critical, but they forget that workers are not fixed assets, they are free agents. When this goes on too long, an employee will quit - often over a trivial issue. This was the speech given by the CEO..... Which is only in words not on deeds.

Talented men leave. Dead wood doesn't.

So many comments so far and some are for Wipro ( proud on wipro guys ) and some against Wipro ( worst comp type comment ). I would first thank to the person for taking this in public and taking help of court if it is real. He has gutts. May be he has no other option since market si too bad to get other job. Generally people forget all these and start working in new comp . Let the court investigate and everything will be out soon. So, not commenting anything on either side. Will wait for court's decision. Court should take strict action against culprit. If employee is maligning the name of comp or comp is doing all these underworks. Lets see what is the truth. But, one thing is true that something took place which forced this person to complaint and why not wipro first initiated the case.

I personally believe that if a company pays you good salary during good times, it has the right to reduce the same or even lay off people when times are not good. Thats why IT industry can afford to pay the people the salaries the amount that they can.
Please note that it is a fact of life. The moment we get into all this BS productivity will be lost and companies would not be able to make profits and hence there will be no salary hikes etc etc

- Guys, be careful while making a hero/martyr of this person. Every story has 2 sides, and we have not yet heard Wipro's. I can say from experience that there are all kinds of characters floating in the industry, and we need to probe more about this guy's claims.
- Clearly, IT industry is going the way of traditional industry, with the chasm between management and workers widening by the day. The wave of support for Ram shows this. It is a very bad sign, and could lead to the death of IT Outsourcing as we know it. I hope the Premji's and Gopalakrishnan's of the world sit up and take remedial action.
- Wipro, Infosys and their ilk have truly bred an army of cyber-coolies who don't understand the nature of business. They just do what is instructed to them, and expect that fat salaries land on their plate. These companies had encouraged this trend as long as it suited them. Now it is backfiring, as employees realize how low they are on the food chain.

So, what do u know about work and about people who slog their butts out in Offices We never are and never will be at war so what work do u do Seems like u guys are always on leave and cant imagine they give u leave over and above that :-) :-) Guess the army men who really work are those who are posted at Kashmir and the border posts.So u have to run thru the mill my friend to understand the problems of those who face it. Now tell me r u happy with the comments that i made on ur work - surely not. I might be talking rubbish coz i dont know what u go thru in the army. Similarly u shouldnt be expressing ur views that too taking the opposite side just for the heck of it when people who are suffering are giving vent to the feelings be it on an anonymous forum or not.U dont know what they are goin thru so please dont play around with peoples feelings just because ur jobless right now.I always did hold armymen in high esteem and still do. They are selfless and help people in strife and put their lives on the line for their country and countrymen. Im sure that no armyman would like to see his countryman suffer. U seem to be an exception and just because u have nothing to do u invest ur time in ridiculing people who are anguished and suffering. Maybe expressing their views on an anonymous forumn allows them to alleviate the bad feelings that they have suppressed within themselves - gives them a comfort feeling. So what the hell is ur problem Can u help them or are you gonna take steps to help them Then why do u comment in the negative Guess they should post u in Kashmir for u to understand work and its accompanying travails.So chill mate and dont irritate people who are already suffering and irritated.

305: This is not first incident for the company.Wipro is indeed one of the worst IT company in terms of its work ethics , culture and employee satisfaction.It was corroborated by a recent incident that happened with one of the girl working at Wipro hyderabad.She was forced to stay at office late in the night and was left to go home at 3 a.m in the night.Provided with no transport,she had to go to her home with a friend.In between their way they were attacked severely and looted by local criminals.There were no incidental action taken for the injured and dejected girl and her family.

Incidents like these are a regular part of companies like Wipro.Though they come out in public rarely.Quoting to be "world class" ,"applying innovation" probably only applying to the ways to harass employees.

The companies should ideally be epitomes in world.But they rather contribute to deface India Inc image in the large world.

I will remain jobless,I will probably do any menial work but will NEVER ever opt to join Wipro or the alike companies.And when I say that ,its because I have immediate experiences of my friends working ..aa aa suffering...

I think Raj should take print / forward these comments to every one in the country (others can do the same for him.Let this msg reach as many as possible so that other companies should think 1000 times before putting their staff to harassment). This will garner support for you in terms of evidence. Your case is not alone, its just that you showed courage. Don't worry for future career prospects, if you are talented there will be millions of oppurtunities. Can someone also care to forward this chain to Mr.Premji.Let him know if he wont step in, it will end wipro's brand image and in turn kill him as "leader" the younger india looks up to.Also the govt should stop celebrating these incomplete & selfish leaders with honors & awards who are only busy targeting to be the next rich person of the country/world.
lot of members commented that IT guys are paid more but we should know they get paid bcoz they generate so much more profit for the company.No one will pay just like that even if it is the country's richest person.
In fact i feel all the wiproites should start a silence fight by stopping the work, until the Mgt take corrective action and walk the talk of respect & dignity for all.
One thing is sure i will never join wipro (glad i was never there at the first place) and do what ever best to stop others.
Ram kudos to you but be careful, garner all the support you can as your fight is against a big monster. Hire very gud lawyer, file complaint at the labor court, Human rights commission and if possible press.Good luck to you.

"One thing is sure i will never join wipro (glad i was never there at the first place) and do what ever best to stop others." - if you've not worked in Wipro, stop commenting...I'm a Wiproite and proud of that...most of the guys who have commented on this chain are guys with plain selfish motives who have never ever been near Wipro. Most of the tales mentioned are purely concocted to add fuel to fire...how many have really applied your brains here while assessing the allegations made...confined by a lady in a conference hall and forced to sign documents...was she holding a pistol to his head? How can we be so naive to belive such things? I've not seen any dungeons or cellars here where they can keep you locked up as he alleges...that too, we're talking about a man (11 years experience, must be around 33-34 years old)...and what was he doing all these months...seems he was sacked in March?

People were hired irrespective of their qualification and then now they are told to compete and clear innovative assesments beyond boundries.If sylabus covers which subjects which needs years in an engineering college.The list would be endless in the industry.What these people need to understand is they really need to stop playing with the careers of people.

319: All i can say is Wipro has been very unfair to the employees. The way they are asking people to resign is not right. they aren't doing justice. And all the unfair means which they have been using have to be somehow communicated to Premji... The top management needs to be fired first.Just imagine a person having joined wipro as a fresher and spending 3+ yrs in Wipro is being told " We are unable to find a project matching your Profile and hence we will have to go for separation". Who the heck was responsible for that kind of profile of that employee.Obviously Wipro. Coz he never worked in any other company before that...

320: Hi Guys,

It seems good that you all are concerned abt ppl and organizations. However, organizations don't have any right to throw its ppl out. In this particular case, if the guy is not performing well, there must be some mails or written notice to the person to perform upto the mark. Meanwhile, the person can challege the organization by showing his previous track records in other oranizations and his last year appraisal in wipro. But company can not sack someone without giving any prior notice, whether he is performing or not. Until, Unless it's a case of integrity or any unethical conduct.

The IT JOB consultancies are dealing the jobless people worse nowadays. They need 4 - 7 years experianced people in contract basis. In a very low salary. Their demand is :
10 marksheet, + marksheet, degree certificate, reasons for leaving the company, cheque leaf for security, The do ask only for a direct interview, not a telephonic round.
Chennai based IT JOB consultancies are worse.

335: Here's the deal.
There is a culture forced resignation.

There are managers who have no clue how to manage things.

There are HR functions who do not know their own purpose.

My friends ( i know they are good techinical people) have gone through all the nonsense that the higher ups dish out.

You need to be your manager's pet.

You cannot think out of the box.

Teams will be rewared in front of clients not to appreciate their work but to create a nice goody picture.

Your appraisals is just a tool for the HR to use as statistics.

The post appriasal discussion is not to set new goals but just a wasteful excercise. Works only to vent out steam.

BEEN THERE. BEEN THROUGH IT ALL. People like Raji and others who have not worked here should not really comment.


All this said.
There are people who are not worth salaries they get working here. (who grow (read "loyal" employees) and have become the bulk of managers)

There are excellent people at the very top. there are brilliant people at the fresher level.

The middle bulge is screwing the company completely.

What Ram mentions i can relate to. He may saying the truth or concocting parts of it. But i can assure you, it must have happened to atleast 4000 Rams in Wipro.

Believe me - Good people once thrown out will never come back here and spread the word among atleast 400 others!

Cheeka, does any where in the whole discussion is it mentioned that a non Wipro person should comment.

I am not against employees rights and I believe that employee comes first before any thing, there might be chances that these entire forceful acts happened but tell me how many employees are still working in Wipro even after all these incidents.

Wipro is not build in a day, it took years for them to come at this position where thousands of employees are with them, and not just this techies who are fresher who don’t have any clue about what is corporate world Wipro is hiring those kids. I know college graduates are still proud to say that they are campus selected in Wipro. Try convincing one such collage or a student not to come and join Wipro.

One thing do any one among you have guts to open a new company and hire all these unemployed techies who lost there jobs because of various reason and compete Wipro in HR practices

Next day morning, they need to report the office at the usual time. Even animals have protection from harassment. I don't know whether Infosys is protected from 'human right violations'. Ask them to talk about HR and ethics. They will talk hours together :)

345: Now a days, Wipro is reducing the salary of employees by half who are on bench (Non billable without project) for longer time. But that too without any criteria. It is called "Enrichment". Some people who have released from a project just 1 week ago got enrichment. But there are some people who are non-billable for more than 1-2 month are stil getting full salary.

348: This is really shocking. Layoff is not a new funda in IT industry but the way it managed is so pathetic. This may not reflect corporate culture of Wipro but reveals the inexperience of people associated.

If this is the case of a senior professional like Mr. Ram, how do they treat juniors? I am not able to understand why treating human beings like a commodity? Also being citizens of a great country and a mature economy, should we expect more mature HR practices.

People those who are adopting poor HR practices should keep in mind that year 2009 is not the end of world. Recession is going off and by 2010, business will flourish again and all laid off employees will be back to job...but they will never stop propagating their bad experiences...Also in the coming year don't expect to engage a headhunter to call somebody 15 times a month and motivate to quit the current job and join your company. Professionals would have learned a lesson...stay with companies those who are showing humanitarian consideration and not with somebody offers an unrealistic fat cheque

Hi Ram, if what is mentioned in the post is genuine and your complaint is true...I can only say "Don't worry man...be brave and may god bless you to get you justice and a better job very soon"

The HR function completly in-effective everywhere and useless. Worst part is our law is un-mature to stop such practices and still wish him good luck for this initiative. I know even orgnization\'s who force you to resign but since you resigned and not terminated you are not event paid 1 or 3 month\'s salary. There are orgnization who hire to meet fulfill their temporary needs and do not give confirmation. ....its all endless...

IF you are adding good value, but still it goes unnoticed or they start to play with you, then there is something seriously wrong with the org. culture. Either the top people haven't been hired properly or there is weak mgmt. or something. You may end up perennially performing but never noticed. Plus, when you leave they may let you go. What that means is that there is a serious org. problem here. It is not your problem. Its just that you were performing at the wrong place! If the company understands that good people are leaving and they get their act together then good for the company. Else, why would you want to be there anyway, if their vision is clouded

355: I work for a US based MNC (taking up my first job in India after working in US) and we hire a lot of Wipro contractors. Trust me, Wipro culture is pathetic. There is no open thinking, you can\'t question anything, forget about raising your voice against something you think is wrong. Wipro just creates (mostly, 95% I would say) robots who just take orders blindly and have no thinking of their own.
The Wipro culture can kill one\'s dignity and independent thinking very fast. I am really saddened to see that Wipro one of the foremost technical companies of India. All Wipro is capable of doing is to generate an army of slaves, slaves who just take orders from clients and unfortunately generate tons of money for Mr Premzi.

And the funniest (in fact worrisome) thing I have heard lately is that Azim Premzi foundation wants to set up a university specifically meant to churn out capable educators for upliftment of society. Given Wipro culture, my fear is that it will churn out a generation of educators who will train the new generation in rote learning/ obeying your seniors (yes men) like most of Wipro employees are right now. I sincerely pray their mission fails.

359: It has happened to me on couple occasions now in India. I have worked both here and abroad. I see these kind of unethical and unprofessional practices only here.I had considerable yrs of experience and performed very well. I also have top qualification from abroad. All these don't deter some self-styled mgmt chaps from behaving unethically.While it is difficult to sue them in India, we can take their ass in the US.



Here is my view:
It is ok for companies to make profit. That is why they exist. It is ok for employees also to make profit. An employee is like a mini biz. inside a company. The company goes for better profits, the employee too should go for better profits. Makes immense sense. If you add value ( not your perception, but from the companies perception), then you get paid more. If you add value, where no one else can, chances are you will be treated and paid well. Likewise, if the employees find the company valuable, it means they get paid well, are treated well and have growth prospects. If there is a more valuable company elsewhere, then employees go there.

If at any point of time he/she feels that the culture doesn't suit him, or there is harassment or he feels generally uncomfortable or his growth is compromised inspite of his performance etc, he should simply look elsewhere. There is no point thrusting yourself on the company when you aren't needed or you are being treated unfairly. Its a clear case of capitalism.

If you think that you need to be pampered by companies with no accountability and periodic promotions etc. etc. then you should look in the public sector. But they won't pay you there. Thats the flip side.

But in any case I will agree that the employer should atleast treat the employees with decency and courtesy. So should the employees.

I would also like to add another hasty bit here. Employees in India should learn to act professionally. They should keep their work timings without going overboard. I see employees working for ever as if it is a one sided thing. Will the company pay you more/overtime for you efforts ? But for some reason Indians love to throw themselves over each other to prove some stupid point. In the process, they not only harm the general work culture, but they harm themselves too.

If a company has contracted with you for a five day week, then the moment they talk of increasing it, just leave the place. Will they pay you for one additional day? A salary is like a contract. Ofcourse, if you are willing then you can take a cut. But if you aren't, I'd suggest you leave.


But for the case under consideration, why would you want to be at Wipro if this is the state of affairs? If my mgr/mgmt shows attitude this way, I'd simply give them notice and leave. Go where you are treated well and valued. That is my advice to all. Don't compromise your self-respect and self-worth. It is not worth it. You have potential. Go prove yourself somewhere else where you are liked and wanted. Quite likely you may shine fantastically someplace else.

Giving an example of Jamie Dimon who was Sr. Exec at citigroup. He was asked to resign bcoz he hadn't promoted the promoters daughter! He walked out and joined a small bank in Chicago. Now he heads JPMorgan Chase, and citigroup is in ruins! Sweet revenge. The stuff that you talk about happens at every level. Only we don't get to hear about the top levels so often. Plus, they are usually compensated and asked to leave quitely...
Like I said it is capitalism.

362: 2 Questions ...
- Will a UNION work and give results ? Has it given results in other places. (I am asking).
- How do we go about Forming such a Union. Please note some facts below from my experience that such experiences are International and not just in India.

I have suffered the same a while back in a MNC (Non-IT core) but sacked from IT inspite of working in a Organization for more than 15 years ... I was a Senior Manager in Internal I.T ... inspite of being well technically qualified for the position. The Issue is not just Management in India, but everywhere and in my Case it was a Management decision LED by Australians / Americans who were Managing the Directors in India. Many Juniors were upset I left suddenly without informing and they still remember me as a person with knowledge, but I could not tell them what happened and was only focussing on getting my next job.

The incident led to conclude that Managements everywhere are the same. They form a Lobby and instead of making choices in reducing cost like reducing everyone's salary or not paying Variables ... they make such choices first to save their own salaries and positions. This is something that is even taught in every MBA School to control costs so I can partly understand. I only have a Problem with the choices organizations make in letting experienced people go away instead of choosing to reduce salaries temporarily for everyone in the company INCLUDING CEO which sounds more fair. It's like in the home, when income is down, everyone cuts cost to live together in harmony. But sadly we don't live in such a world.

Yes, I think so. We can have a virtual IT union (using the net), and can grind these companies to a halt if they misbehave. It is easier in IT, since it is labor intensive :).
The company performance is directly proportion to employee productivity. There are no machines here that someone else can take over. Plus, the jobs can be quite complex too, and they aren't assembly line that you can hire someone and fit them someplace :).

So..., the answer is a resounding yes. It just needs to be implemented correctly. :) and make sure that mgmt. doesn't have their stooges there :).

Yes what you say is true. The Machines are the People or Human Capital as it is always called. I know they have Labour Unions in many part of Europe that are so strong that closing a Factory is a costly decision for Management. I think it also applies to IT. Management only understand the language of Money. So what is needed is a Union which has a mechanism that works on money grounds and never humanitarian or emotional for these capitalists.

We have a very robust process

this is BSht thie process is called OMBUDSMAN here. I have filed complaint against my manager here nothing happened.

QUOTE
We have not had any complaints of this nature ever before

People who get offers else where just leave eagerly and dont care to complaint about the racism / Politics and Favouritism here.

I was given an NI (Needs Improvement) here for this apprai
REASON ? My manager and my technical manager dont like me as I geninnely communicate ideas and point what is wrong.
My other team mates who have altogether done only 50 percent of the work have been given EE (Exceeds expectation). Today is my last day in this project. reason given for sacking me out of this project is another BS reason some bulge mix etc

Spirit of Wipro
My manager is constantly suggesting me to search another job etc. Even after explaining the amount of work done for this project, My TM retorted back that ratings given cant be changed.
Poeple who are happy here either because they are getting a higher pay . or they are fit for nothing else.

Intensity to win
People who talk against managers or higher ups would be screwed. there is lot of politics and favouritism here. Be a localite and you would win whereever here.

Applied innovations
This company is best suited for managers who come with their laptops, bluff about things that they didnt even know or experiment. I have even heard them give explanations to clients about our projects, things that we have never immagined that were there in our ODC. You should see how clients are buttered and taken around here.

Act with sensitivity
I came to wipro on 2006 from a small company just thinking that i would be part of a large system and i would learn many things. I was even cheated by the HR giving me a meage pay and telling that I would be given a 40% hike within 2 months of joining. I dont think anyone would join wipro for lure of money, unless he is a maneger and wants onsite and retired life.

Politics / racism and favouriteism is the worst here. There is no value for technical knowledge or honesty. If your manager is an asdhhgfdewrt and if he doesnt like you, thats all you are screwed.

The only way to survive here is
1. Know to bluff about stuffs that you havent even worked upon.
2. Please your manager/s.
3. Added advantage of your manager is from local place and if you belong to that same place.

I However pray that wipro gets good projects and the company prospers as there are many of us whoes life is dependent on the salary we get.

God help us.

They mess out on the Appraisal System completely and then these idiots tell that the ratings cant be changed and it would be taken care of in the next cycle . Nothing good happens in the next cycle also..Wipro managers talk about integrity. They are the ones who breach the integrity every now and then. the manager gels well with people from his community. they pair up and then make strategies to work against ppl who don't belong to their community. Wipro sucks. I don't think prem ji is aware of all this.

It is rediculous, really a shit place to work, no ethics, poor management, no professionalism, only Favouritism...Infact we call for Omsbud in Wipro for our manager but nothing really happened... I had joined wipro with lot of dream but to be honest its not a place where a person can enjoy unless he/she have one god father in higher management..... :( no heart feelings, but we should really form a community or group/blog where a person can share their experience and will directly get reported to the Government/Nasscom Officials which should take action against it. Not sure how far to go, all the very best "Ram"

370: Ram what you are doing is very correct. We are all with you. The main problem for S/W field employess we didnot have registered Employee union or forum. These companies are playing games with Techies Lifes. How we are hardworked in colleges..but at the time coming to Job there is no personal value..S/W comapnies always try to get profits only...Even they have backup amount to give salaries they are giving priority to layoffs only.If an employee is unbillable without considering what they earned at the time of biilable of an employee.they simply laid off...this is one bad nature of entire S/W industry...I hate such type mentality of This Industry..

If you can get laidoff from one company without notice at that time you will understand meaning of Decency. I will tell onething Entire S/W field is depend upon indians..if Indian will not be Decent then There is No S/W field in this World...

That's y USA is better and i wanna migrate there. There recession is for everybody many financial sector CEO's are now drawing salaries like USD 1/months USD 2/month. Can neone who is speaking in favour of greedy management of companies name 3 good companies say with a revenue of above 200 crores whose CEO's were terminated in this recession.

How many techies have gone for the interview on time when a consultant have schedule them for an interview,any idea on what basis employees ask for 30 to 50 % hike every year with out updating their skills.

There's a difference between laying off or firing a person and forcing him to resign. Firing someone requires cause, so you have to document the issues, build a case. Laying off a person requires payment of severance.

Forcing someone to resign is the easy way out for the company, because you don't have to do either of the above -- no need to spend weeks building a case _and_ you don't lose any money. And it's also a low-down, dirty and unprofessional thing to do.

In so many years what I have learned is there is only one equation that rules in the world "Demand and Supply".
In boom time, employees get benefited.
In recession, companies are taking undue advantage of the current situation.

I brought your point but how fair is to ask for irrelevant hike when you are not eligible for what you are asking for.
I have seen people asking for 30 % hike after 6 month working in a company and looking for change so demand is there where the supply is. Do you think working in company for 6 month is enough have they learnt enough?
raji Replied to: guru - 21 Aug, 2009

If company is making profits, it can give any number of %. 30 %. 50 %, 100 %,,,,, etc. On the other side, they can reduce the salary in recession time, instead of following such a pracises. Lot of companies followed this pracise by taking employee's into confidence.
It is only in WIPRO that people are forcibly told to resign without giving any reason. The fall of WIPRO empire is started. It will collapse soon.

As I said it is the Demand and Supply equation. Company doesn't give hike by employee pressure. Its a business.

You mean to say if one learns Oracle thinking its good and he wants to pursue a career in to it. When he is hired by a company, though he wants to work on oracle we will be give something else. Are you at all aware of this

And to you Mr. Raji, you are absolutely right we do not know about Mr. Ram Manohar, but on the contrary we do not know you too. Are you efficient & a performer in you organization? By what you read in the above article and wrote, to me it seems NO.

A a piece of sane advice, Next time you change your company don't ask for a hike at all. In fact stay in the same company with the same salary. Forever

389: Four of My fellow colleague who were recruited from campus of one of the Premier MBA institute in india, last november, are still not been honored with joining. Every 15 days these people call the Wipro HR and Every time the response is same that they will definitely give them joining in next 10 days. Because of hope to join wipro they did not sit for any other companies next visited in campus nor did they apply else where. This is the situation where companies are almost destroying the career's of young and fresh MBA Graduates and Wipro is not the only company which does that, but there are many who have done are still doing it.

When people run behind money, and money becomes criteria, these things can happen. Some companies lure people with large money, people become greedy and fall for it.

How was this Ram's performance? There is no mention abt that. Company may have tolerated a person because there is a lack of resource in the market. When times are bad, bad apples fall off the trees!

I have known employees who blackmail companies into giving higher salary or they will quit. Companies spend huge money or salaries, training, recreation, on these employees. After working for 3 years, they start looking out. Imagine what happens to the company's resources. Maybe companies should also file complaints against employees for blackmailing.

Some IT people are paid too much beyond their skills. People don't complain, why will they. But when company reduces pay, people are up in arms. Then they talk of labour laws, respect etc etc

Well, the company may or may not face problems, but employees will be more harmed if they don't perform.

I donot agree with you Manoj. Employees are right in demanding higher salary when they are grossly underpaid. Companies earn in USD but pay in INR. As domain expert, I have prepared proposals, SOWs. Testers/ analyst programmers in S'pore are billed at the rate of SGD 12,000 and paid a meagre SGD 2,000- 2,500. You do not get more that a 700 sqft 2 bedroom Govt. flat in that salary. What has increased the misery is no hike in salary though they had the advantage of we making the first Business Operating Model for the shipping industry leading to client mining.

No one would even listen to the person in question then. HR, Practice manager etc....are of no help. They are all one team and one is left with no option but to quit. It's all so bad.

Fully agree to Sagar. 15 days notice is not something agreed upon in the agreement. In case this is happening, employes should also give not more than 0-15 days notice when leaving. Otherwise, it is a gross misbehaviour and cheating on the part of the organisation. Making unions is definitely one solution, the other solution is making special courts/ fair ombudsman for fast tarck redressal of such disputes. Employers (including top management) need to be made accountable and their behaviour should be termed as criminal inviting penalty and long term confinement.

Hi,

Software Companies like wipro get lot of benifits from the government. The reason why they give these benifits is first that, they grow the industry and give employments to as many number of people in our country. In term they make profits also through these benifits.

Now these profits as they say are kept as reserve, which will help the company in times of crises. So these companies have to use this money to pay the employees when they are laid off. Why dont wipro does that?

I was one of the victims of layoff in Wipro. One Firday when I asked my Manager "Is my job safe?", He was so confident saying that I was absolutley safe. And the next monday the HR called and told me to put my papers. My manager even did not send me a mail after that. They gave me 15 days notice and I was told to resign. Everyday I was called up and asked to resign. And the worst, they had already started my final settelment process before I resigned. They even did not pay me 3 month salary.

Is that what Wipro talks about ethics and values. If it was not for ressession, I would have had to give 3 months notice, when resigned. My request to the Government is, it should also have policies while the companies lay off the employees. Why its a one sided benifits? Are is this the attituted a Software company like wipro should have and calling them one of the best companies?

I want to disclose his cheapness, actually what he did in his life for his sexual satisfaction and for his own benefits. he was involved with many girls and did so many wrong things like sexual and physical, and mental harsh with them. he used them beyond the limit for his sex satisfactions. its not enough for him ..during this he recorded so many phone calls, videos and saved photos with each and every girls at their sexual activities..just because of his safety.

By his soft speaking habits and behaviour , person cant think he may b this much worst, but internally he is really one of the worst. he played with girls emotions and showed them they only did wrong with him. but in his full life he only use all girls ..

now even he is not good at his work place also.Before wipro he was in robert bosch, and he terminated from his job in robert bosch . he joined wipro in last year sep 2011, but till now without completion he released from more than 3 or 4 project due to his carelessness in his job .. he is staying at his home and making fools to girls and his seniors in his company also.he is having black family background , from starting he was like this but nobody object from his family. by which he is feeling proud for list of girls in his life.now in his thinking what ever he did he is not wrong, if girls did this with him then she is not good at all, he did all this cheap activities with all girls in cybercafe, restaurant, hotel and at his home also in bangalore.so many girls hurt ed by this all things, they requested , cried but this worst person never thought abut others feelings.

463: Sulekha Jagadish (Present Job - Program Manager)- Qual:
B Com, Working in wipro since 12 years. Being a non technical candidate she was in charge for allocating suitable resources to suitable projects. She is known to be using abusive language and interesting relationship with Gangadhariah(Sr Vice president, Testing services) and Keshava Kumar Handanahalu, now sacked by Wipro.

Anuradha Raju: Sacked from Infosys and then joined Wipro with the help of some insiders in the company. Ask any wiproite, all of them say that she is unfit for the job. Many highly skilled employees have seperated from the company- thanks to her slum dwellers language.She always use the word termination even for minor issues. known to have intimate relationship with Srinath Nittur Gopalakrishna Rao.

Keshav Kumar is not from IT background. He was a typical govt employee before he was recuited by wipro.

Ganesh halapethi is another non technical guy equipped with foul language and partisan attitude. Known to have amassed huge wealth by illegal means.

Vikram Mirani only supportive to particular community. Racist.Very abusive to south Indians. Huge wealth beyond his known sources of income.

Sanjay babu Srinivasan is fit to be a political leader. Better he joins any political party than spoiling innocent employees.
Ankur Chadha – known to be fond of only money. She can go to any extent to amass money
Sreerenganathan Group head is most cunning of them all. He was involved in big fraud in the Telecom domain. Known to be having cherished relationships with his female colleagues. His name is common in police records.
Shalini Macaden, HR who is famous for her sexual adventures within wipro campus.

Posted by:fanoos - 03 May, 2010
468: Sex sells best in wipro, women employees joining wipro BEWARE!

It is alleged that wipro’s apex HR bosses are mediating these illicit relationships. One such example is Chennai wipro employee “Manjula” whose tape is well-known over internet http://rapidshare.com/files/369234751/indian-mms-sex-scandal-video-of-wipro-employee-manjula-chennai-hot-girl-home-made-masala-clips.rar. Another case reported from Wipro cochin campus.Wipro Managers are a cluster of offenders playing rot with the wipro Senior leadership. Most of the managers make a fuss of forbidden activities within the company’s campuses. There was an allegation about intimate relationship of Shalendra Kumar, Project Manager with Shalini Macaden HR Manager in Wipro’s Horizontals . There is enough uncertainty about her kids paternity. Regrettably her spouse is ignorant of the facts. Equally there are frequent cases of paternity problems with horny wipro women employees. Wipro code of business ethics is a mere eyewash. Debate does not stop with this scandal. There is a bigger sting to this with top HR personal involved in funds dealings However for an normal person it looks unlikely that “How come a HR Manager at that level be involved in the financial fraud. The HR directors are encouraging these affairs to cover up their own financial malpractices. The proximity of these HR managers with the persons at director level is well known. However the Director level hr Managers encouraging these forbidden affairs within the campuses still remains a mystery

WIPRO IS THE WORST OF ALL COMPANIES

Form applying to innovating Lol

After working for 4+ years in more than 3 projects they simply asked me to resign. When asked Why? They answered Cost cutting and new hires with less salaries. Ok that's not the end even the HR people do not pay the full amount of settlement. The settlement paper that I received first from the TED had some amount, which they said was the final amount I was to receive. When I received the settlement money it was 7000 less. After writing a chain of mails they said that it was not in there account. I sent them hard as well as soft copy provided by them, but all in vain.

I finally quit.

Like someone said in the transcripts its better not to work in a company like this and stay unemployed, where people are treated like SALVES. Yes believe me it is true

The upper management sucks and Premji still thinks, he owns the best company in India

Some days back while I was still in- I heard that the old man with gray hair will give away everything for charity Gosh WHY (CRY)? When you say its a people's company, for which the company stands. Give them the due credit, raise their salaries a little. The top management is filled with oldies & are good for nothing. I feel its bad to work for a company like think and cry everyday.

Please do understand the following principles.
In the world of business there is no Concept of Emotion. If you are working with emotion, Then ultimately you will be slashed in to pieces with a reason called Business philosophy. Many people are thinking Management is the one who is doing all this bullshit. fine, what is hapening to manager there in wipro. Do you guys think they are happily sitting on nice cushioned chairs. no way, fyi, wipro even slashed so many managers with out any reason(more than 100+ at a single location). even those who are working with compnay for more than 20 years. Please do understand that it is a crisis. so, there is no point in blaming crisis and giving value for emotions in the crisis time.

It is not only one company as wipro. the way they reacted is brutal I can say what wipro is doing today. because they cannot sink the entire wipro ship just because of emotions and people value. Some people has to get down from the ship whether they like it or not. Since no body don't want to jump they themselves are throwing out of the company for cost cutting. This is not only the story of wipro. this is the story with every company.

How come we are not claiming when they are paying high salaries that we don't require this much of salary. According to simple economic principle - today they are sharing the profit with the employees by paying high salary. tomorrow if the companies are making loss are we in a position to pay back to the company and sharing their losses no way. This is the reality boss,

I am also a big bakra from wipro who served for more number of years in all the possible nice roles.

Forming an Union, is a good concept. but please do realise, will all you guys do a strike / Bandh for your coemployees in other companies if the management is not good or for some other reasons. Please don't waste your time by spending time here. Rather search for a job for some thing which will give you good benefits iimediately. I do understand, but please go with reality.

If you guys want government to take action, what government role is all about for 15 lakhs of people, if you need to put to movement how many are really ready and what is the agenda. if we don't have this, you ideas will be born to death.

It is a lala, seth, baniya company where chamchagiri and wagging tail pays. there are no humanitarian values. The immediate senior will please his/her boss and so on and so forth. They CUT SALARIES, they haress employies and make binding contracts for longer periods. Breaking contracts would mean paying them in reverse order. They take unfair advantage of select female staff by showing superiority and work pressure. The HR and Omsbudsmann just complete the formalities of (no evidence) prevalance of innocence, and stuff like that. Its high time that Wipro pays for throwing people out.

Dear Smruti Ranjan,

I guess you are Orissa, from my native place. I saw ur comments about sacked employee in Wipro. But there are thousand cases happening in other companies. Recently in HCL in front of other junior employee one manager says " I have spent 4 to 5 years in HCL, I have a lot of reference here.So I can throw you out from HCL. I give you poor appraisal". That employee escalated this issue to higher level in HCL. But the result was same as usual.The employee was sacked in stead of manager.

So we should build employee union.

Sital.

I have gone thorugh with all posts and as conclusion I want to say we need an Employee Union there who can fairly fight for employees rights.
If labor unions (who are not much educated)can make change, why not we.
We are IT professional, we can make use of IT for our union.
Why not we make some forum or community online and spread that across India by mailing and using search engines. Initially we can start by telling our experiences and later on we can add more things like giving advice and legal helps etc.
Think about it - we can make a change.

Hi madam,
This technique is not known to any one except the PM who did it. This technique is just like a magic spell. You know in magic any thing is possible and we wont be exactly be able to explain how it is taking place. NOw about kshudhram in this you can hear the voices of two people one is an arrogant harsh male voice and another is that of a small girl. Now these two voices will speak to us in a very provocative and insulting way. They will be mostly talking about Infosys and about the problems related to my work and how bad my conduct is and such things. Some times these two creatures (they are invisible oly voices can be heard) create pain in different parts of the body , like back pain, headache, chest pain(near to the heart) etc at crucial times(like when we are riding bike, talking to friends etc) These creatures are like gods and possess extreme power and some times they threaten to kill us and all). If u want to know more about this please refer to my post in Indiadivine.org(Urgent help needed!its a matter of Life and Death-by appolonius). As I am typing this , these creatures are asking me to stop typing and go back home and they are producing pain in my back near the upper part. Also some times these creatures will cast a spell(called a kshudhram) and prevent us from sleeping. They also prevent me fromhaving physical relationship .so I am not able to get married now. Nobody is believing me in my home and nobody is aware of this problem. I took a lot of psychiatric drugs and antihypnotics but this is showing no sign of imporvement. Becoz of this problem I am not able to work am emotionally harassed and down and dejected and am on the verge of committing suicide.The only way to get rid of this problem is to appeal to the project manager to cure this. But now he is also denying this.I cant move legally also so I am in a soup. Believe me even though this sounds like a mental disease this is not a mind problem and this is a real supernatural problem. I got this the very same day my PM called me to his cabin to sack me.

I was working in India for 7 years and feel so sad looking at the state these IT firms have reached exploiting the employees and firing them at their own will.The Govt cannot do anything as these firms have a million excuses and the employee has to bear the brunt. Not to hurt anyone, I had realized this long back and moved out of India for good and UK is much better as employee security is better here compared to India.At-least I found a good employer in spite of recession.I think the IT employees in India should come together and start a grievances forum online and liaise with the Govt to address these issues.Not sure what NASSCOM is upto except to be a bullying machinenad scare employees.

MY 1.5+ YEARS OF TOUGH TIMES EXPERIENCE IN WIPRO

Hi all,
I dont hide my self in the mask of anonymous. Wanted to be transparent, I am Jnaneswar.
Right after my java training, for about a couple of days, I was dreamiing about my career in java. But to my surprise, the first project to which I was assigned is in Unix, oracle and VB.Net. I remember my onsite coordinator forcing me to learn VB.Net to support the project applications.
With in about 2 months, I was shown the flavour of COBOL, and by the time I gathered my material to learn COBOL, I was moved in to SAP where I worked in for three months at a rate of more than 15-16 hours per day. After I struggled with SAP applications and completed the project, I was rewarded with a transfer to Gurgaon in one day notice, given no guidance regarding accomodation, put me in to unix and telecom domain which demands me to work in shifts. The company here, inspite of the fact that the public transport system is pitiable, doesnt provide any transportation facilities. Currently we are expected to work in night shits and on 24*7 basis, my team leads and project managers being working only in general and normal working hours basis.
After all this when I turn back in to my life, I find myself playing the role of a FAILED SOFTWARE ENGINEER. And correct, I ruined my life in WIPRO. Hope thing should not be like of mine with other software professionals.

The HR's Wipro Technologies is certainly participating in the activities mentioned above. I had worked with Wipro Technologies for 4.8 years and quit in April'09. The HR called me up on phone and threatened me that if I join the client for whom I worked, I would be in trouble and put the phone down. This is certainly not the way a Senior HR (Richa Telang - Business Technology Services) should behave.Wipro is like a government company where all the bosses can do anything and everything and no one questions them.

I think it is very important to form a SOFTWARE EMPLOYEE's ASSOCIATION and stop the Management for taking things for granted specially all the unlawful behavior that goes on inside the IT companies. Now we know why STRIKES and BANDHs come about. Because in a unregulated space, employers indulge in unlawful behavior left and right.
Since IT Companies are relatively new compared to the older peers in Manufacturing , it is not well regulated either by the Government or by the law agencies. It is very important regulations are enforced and illicit and illegal behavior of men and women managers be brought under control. No company has the right to take the law in their own hands. Those who do should be dealt with very strictly and put behind bars. Managers , both men and women, indulging in threats and verbal abuses should be stripped of their jobs, handcuffed and paraded in the streets like common criminals and be thrown to rot in jails. The arrogance of people like Azim Premji who is going and making arrogant comments in the US press (like there will be trade wars etc) is causing a lot of damage to India and India's image in the international arena. He talks as if he is the spokesman for India's Prime Minister. His recent move to bring his sons into Management also shows his dynastic inclination and unprofessional attitude.
WIPRO and TCS are specially the most notorious in behaving unethically wherever they operate in the world. Their Managers are also one of the most uneducated . You will hardly find well educated and well-heeled people in their management ranks. The women managers specially go up not on merit but by virtue of other assets. Employees should go to the Police Station and close the operations of these companies for a few days. When their customers will threaten to take back the contracts, only then they will learn a lesson.

Its not the question of getting job.Do you think Ram with 11 years of IT track record worried about job..he is wanted by IT companies any time..I do not think he needs help getting new job.

Its the way Wipro behaved is unacceptable ..he needs support to fight the ARMY OF CROOKED guys.

Wipro is a worst company,if our Indian GOVT. did not take any action then our nation fame will be ruined.Wipro should follow some morals like INFOSYS AND SATYAM because they will do their business very genuinely and they explain to media about the happenings.But this worst wipro doesn't follow any rules and regulations.wipro should be banned,because the products prepared by them are also worst.
Azim Premji is also a fraud he done business upto now.He purchased subhiksha and blaming them that they did't told about their losses.Before purchasing any product we will see the pros and cons of a product.This gives us info that Azim premji is not having any knowledge about life and doesn't care for the people.If any person met with an accident we will help him a lot even he is a stranger,but in wipro it is quiet opposite.They laid off sorry harrased and made them to resign about 8000 people.

So,My sincere request to Govt. of india is dismiss wipro from our country.Then half of our country will develop.By seeing this company other companies will learn morals that we should spoil and hurt others.

Becareful freshers don't risk to join wipro.

Will they follow any rules exactly as framed by US gov or any other gov while filing the work visas to their employees. All the employees know what the companies do inside while filing the H1 or L1 or B1 visas to US. Employees of these Indian companies should come out like this protest directly in the interest of every Indian IT employee interest.

There are likewise situation in Accenture too. The upraisal process were messed up. They key people involved for certain project did promote their like ones and those who really worked too the bad names. The names of the guy is Renjeev Kolanchery. He was a SM with Accenture but had to flee Accenture since he knew people would react badly. I heard he even changed his name. See how coward he stands. He owns a patent which was snatched from an employee promising him a good position in the next upraisal.

I guess we should black list guys like Renjeev Varughese Kolanchery and a few folks who only conduct upraisals favorably to people who invite then for lunch, buy them gadgets and so on.
Lets try to eliminate such folks and help the our IT companions get out from such saddiest professionals and work with nice fellas..

Now have some fun




Who is the BEST

Infosys, Wipro or TCS?

One day, three consultants, one from Wipro, one from Infosys and one from
TCS, went out for a walk.
"Why don't we prove who is the best among ourselves?"
Why not, said the other two.
The Infosian said "Let's have a test. Whoever makes this monkey laugh,works for the best firm".
Being a pure logical strategist, the person from TCS tried to make the monkey Laugh by telling jokes. The monkey stayed still.
As a more practical consultant, the Wipro guy tried to make funny gestures.

No good, the monkey stayed put.

Now, comes the Infosian. Being the practical guy he was always trained to be, he whispered something into the monkey's ear, and it burst out laughing at him.

The other two were astonished. So the Wipro guy said "OK, let's take another test. Let's make this monkey cry"

So there they went again, applying the same methods as before. The TCS guy narrated sad stories, the Wipro guy made sad gestures, and they failed again.

Then, the Infosian again whispered something into the monkey's ear and oh!
It started crying, patting the Infosian's shoulder!
The other two just could not believe their eyes! So the tcs guy said "OK, you've won twice. If you can win just this one, we will bow to you. Let's make this monkey run".
and he barked at the monkey and ordered him to run. Of course, it stayed where it was. The Wipro guy, true to his type, pushed and prodded the monkey- still No go.

So here comes Infosian, again, and whispers into the monkey's ear. The Monkey just takes off! It runs and runs as fast as it can, as if it was scared to death!

The other two surrendered.
They Said: "OK, we give up.You're the best among us, and you work for the Best firm of the three. But Please, please tell us your secret," they begged him.

"Well", said the Infosian, "The first time I made it laugh, I told I work for Infosys. The next time, I told the monkey how much I get paid, so it started crying.
And then I told that I was here for recruitment!

these companiesa re really the big cheats... they ask their employees to cheat the clients and also bill them very high hrs for work for a task which can be done within few mins.. I once told one the clients that a task could be done by me in a a day .. unaware of the fact that my company's engagement manager had given a proposal to do that task in a week by a 4 member team... the client was happy for my task as it saved time and dollars for them and appreciated my work... but my bosses were very furious with me and threatned me not to say anything to the client befo0re consulting them... these companies say lines like - employee first,.....customer first.. in reality its just .. profit first ... bottime line of the quarter balance sheet is the only thi9ng it matters to them and the managers carer growth is simply based on how much they have helped to get more profit.. noone asks how the hell these managers are making these profits .. by cheating the clients or by asking the employees to work extra hours .... basically getting a task done by 2 people (making them work more hrs/day + weekends) instead of same work done by 6 people... horrible.

His manager told him and few others saying that in-future there will be a major job cuts in the company so u better resign now and HR will waive his bond money (for those who don't know TCS asks employees to sign a bond of certain amount for certain number of years - say if a n employee leaves the company within those many number of years he/she has to pay TCs the bond amount- ridiculus)...

Here I would like to point out one more thing.If somebody joins wipro with some fake experience/fake resume,then the company will terminate his job by conducting background verification.But if the companies dont find proper resource for some projects,then they will show few freshers/inexperiences resourses as TECHNICAL EXPERT,TECHNICAL LEAD etc etc to the clients just to do business and make the client happy saying they have very good pool of resources.Dont you think these companies are even more fake/cheater then anyone else.Just think about it.

Terminating ppl immediately and putting them in Enrich (Half Salary). Enrich is the bullshit program where wipro is conducting. Let me tell y\you one example. One of my frnd who has got released from Project. The next day, he did receive the call from HR saying that please come and collect the Enrichment Paper.
I request the GOVT to take necessary action against wipro. Employee are treated as SLAVE by wipro. Entire Top management to be removed. Then only wipro can survive.
Dear Manmohan Ji/Media

Please do some needful to protect the Employee of Wipro.

Hey people...
Was going through this blog to see what had actually happened with Ram..And it was really amusing to see the blogs and people talking for/against companies. But as it happens in India, people just talk talk and talk..They do nothing...After few months, people just stopped speaking and blog is down..thats all..
Point to make:HR people have got such high power to sack employees from organization...Have you heard about HR people getting bribed royally during campus interviews.Why dont people do something to expose them?.:-)
I learnt a trick working in this Indian Companies. Taken from Underworld Culture..Get associated with a Manager and just do whatever he/she tells u to do...And he/she will save you all the time. You can be on bench for 8 months during recession time (Trust Me)...All ratings will be manipulated..You will get hike/promotion..Everything that you want.Ultimately we want money and thats what we work for..Self-respect is something that is long sold...

Remember friends, if you really want to make a difference, unless there is a group effort from each indivisual, its impossible to start a movement against corruption..Again we will not do it...

Hi not only that what happens to wipro in the world bank deal, when wipro tried to bribe their employees to get some more business world bank has barred wirpo from doing further business with wipro instead they would have black listed this company forever, also i am wipro employee i have seen the same when they want they will ask us to prepare resume by showing more experience just to get the business, Also this is happening more for people whom they are going to place offshore by showing more experience to client and to get more billing rate for the person having less than 1 year experience. Also i have seen they bill the same person in more than one project just by asking him to appear with any weekly or daily client meeting but actually he won't be working in the project, but most of the queries from client will be answered by one senior resource working in that project.
