Wipro, HCL engineers commit suicide
By   siliconindia news bureau
Thursday,27 August 2009, 19:43 hrs
 
Bangalore: In the last one week two young IT engineers, one was working with Wipro and another with HCL, committed suicide. Both the engineers died by jumping from their office building.

Wipro engineer, Vishal Yadav (29), had a BE in electronics and hailed from Madhya Pradesh. Since May 17, 2004, he was working with Wipro as a Business Analyst and had gone on leave for two months. Interestingly, he had put in his papers via e-mail and was supposed to be relieved of his duties on August 31.



At around 10:20 pm on Wednesday, Vishal jumped from the top floor of S-II building of Wipro that has 12 storeys. When security supervisors heard a loud thud, they rushed to the spot and found Vishal down with blood around his body. They took him to the hospital, but it was in vain as doctor declared him brought dead. Doctor said, "With multiple head, spinal and thigh fractures, he might have collapsed within minutes after the fall."

HCL (Hindustan Computers Limited) engineer, Vikas Kumar Sharma (26), hailed from Munger district in Bihar. Since January 01, 2009, he was working with HCL as a Senior Network Analyst. He was living with a cousin in Delhi's Katwaria Sarai area. Though he was on a official off on Wednesday (August 19), he decided to report for the duty. The company cab had brought Vikas to the office around 4.30 am. Around 5.50 am Vikas jumped from the 5th floor of the office building. He was rushed to a hospital where doctors declared him brought dead.

In both the cases, Police have been trying to find the reason of the death as they could not find any suicide note or any threat related information till now. In the case of Vishal, police framed eight questions and sent them to the human resources department of Wipro, but even after 24 hours, they were unable to get any personal details of the dead man. However, an HR executive of Wipro said, "We have been directed not to reveal any information or photograph of the employee. It is just that he had quit the job and was serving the notice period."

A police officer said, "We are not ruling out murder. There are lots of unanswered questions and it is for Wipro to clear the doubts."

In the case of Vikas, Noida's Superintendent of Police (City) Ashok Tripathi said, "The company's officials did not inform the police about the incident. Authorities at Max Hospital, where the victim was taken to, informed us."

In 2009, two suicide news of big IT companies' employees came in limelight. There are many engineers who are being harassed and forced to resign from the company. Last week, one of the former Wipro employees had informed media of the way he was sacked from the company.

3: I would like to inform you that this is not the first suicidal case in Wipro. In 2007 also a software engineer committed suicide. He jumped from S1 tower, 10th floor. At that time the case was suppressed in a very clever manner.

I also really don't understand, why doesn't Wipro want to reveal information about the person. Isn't their responsibility to provide the information about the guy.

4:SO do you recommend that all IT companies where there is any misfortune like this happening should go around the town with all gory details? Are they like Army deaths in Srinagar so that if we know we will all feel proud of thier bravery and Govt of India will award the medals? My dear friend death of a young employee is not good for the morale of the employees of any company. It may prompt others who may have suicidal tendencies. SO companies may not hide it but definitely prefer to not to make a song and dance about it. It is an unpleasant reality and that is how it is dealt with

5: All such companies must reveal all the details be it all gory details. And don't compare Wipro with army. In army people kill because otherwise they will get killed. They kill because they sometimes become so fearful and stressful that they simply have to kill. And still the guilty person faces court martial. What risk of life Wipro management is seeing, whom of Premzi and HR head has faced criminal punishment. If an employee is having suicidal tenedency Wipro will not hesitate to highlight it. Wipro has become a stinking gutter which always remains full and covered because of people like you and due to huge population of the country.

7: 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:Yes this is yet another problem CURSE among us IT guys. we pride ourselves as so educated and elite.

People grouped based on languages or hailing from the same state / region.

we are called mallus / tamilians / kannadigas (I even saw whats supposed to be a kannadiga flag in one of the cubicles) shame on us.

IT UNION would never be successful. The only practical thing is to be aware of common things and act sensitively.
!. before joining WIPRO, Negotiate on your salary, never go for a less pay on the pretext that you would get hikes, hike is only 5 to 8% average.
2. Dont go in for the CTC stuff. You may be getting 4l CTC but in hand you would get say 20 ~ 22 K (QPLC , PF contribution from employee as well as employer from your pay etc)
3. Get to know your band. If you are more than 5 years experienced, ask for a B2 band at least.
4. Last but not the least. KEEP PROOF of all meetings discussions that you have with your supervisors as this would help you a lot.(watch out for those processes policies etc ) Even an oral communication should be recorded as saying "as discussed ., "

Lets make ourselves aware instead of playing politics and calling each other names.

10: 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.

11:
If you’re reading this, there is at least a small part in you that doesn’t want to die. Listen to it, and please read on.
Suicide is final – once it's done, there’s no changing your mind. Since you have even the slightest of doubts, you owe it to yourself to stay alive.
You can always kill yourself later, why not wait? Even if you wait just one day, you may find a reason not to kill yourself in the meantime.
If you’re feeling suicidal, you’re probably in more pain than you know how to handle. There are ways to reduce the pain, and ways to learn to deal with pain. You can learn both - either way things will get better.
Just because you’re feeling suicidal doesn’t mean you have to act on that feeling.
Consider this – if you’re trying to escape from the pain you are in and seek relief, suicide is not the answer. You cannot feel relief, or anything else for that matter, if you are dead. You must stay alive in order to feel the relief you seek.
Often when feeling suicidal you feel alone. You are not alone – you found us didn’t you? Turn to your family or friends or a priest or a rabbi – anyone that will listen.

By terminating your life right now, you terminate your future. Consider this – we create our own future. You have the power to create whatever future you wish for yourself. But you need to be alive in order to have that future.
If you’re sensitive enough to be in so much pain that you no longer want to live, you’re probably sensitive enough to care about, and want to help others. Maybe you don’t feel like helping anyone else right now, but why not help yourself? And perhaps by not killing yourself and overcoming your difficulties you can later help someone else who is in a similar situation.

13: Well, I'm not related to Wipro or HCL in anyway. However, after reading all the posts regarding HR policies and their 'employees first' mantra, I think I agree with most of the comments about HR's unjustified ways of ruining employees' lives. In fact, it is the 'local' management that's behind HR. When you guys blame HR/management in today's tough economic times, I can still feel a fraction of reason on HR/management's part.
I was with a BIG software company in B'lore few years ago when the economy was booming. Their HR and management screwed up my life big time - even during booming economy. The reason - I applied for a position in their US office and it stunned the local HR/management. Why would they let a resource move from "their" organization to "another" In fact, I applied for a different profile in which I earlier had experience, and this profile wasn't available in B'lore office. When I say the profile wasn't available, I mean they didn't have the particular business unit altogether. I was not an a.. licker. So, things turned up like 'applying for a govt. job in general quota'. I guess much worse than that.
The minimum requirement to stay in current profile was surprisingly changed from 12 months to 18 months. I applied for the new profile during 14 month in my current profile. The management did its best to abandon the permission to interview citing "short by 4 months" reason. Fortunately, the interviewer in US decided to go for 'at least' interviews. I had 8 rounds, and the response was pretty positive. I had to go on a vacation just after the last interview. The last interviewer told me that when I get back, I stand a pretty good chance to hear from them!
When I got back, I realized that the results are not even declared - leave aside positive or negative. BTW, it was 16th month by then. I contacted everyone I could to find the results of my interview. But, the result was "never" declared. I think I had the right to know the result. If not ethically, at least for the sense of human courtesy. But, such words don't exist in their HR's dictionary.
The things went on for over a year and after about 8 or 9 months, I was contacted directly by another interviewer for a position in the same profile.
The local management was stunned again! To their utmost surprise and nightmare, the interviewer wanted me to travel to US for a formal face-to-face interview.
"We won't pay you a single penny" - that's what I was told.
Another shock for local management came when the interviewer decided to cover everything for me. What could stop me now?
I traveled, things went well. I came back and waited to hear the results.
Even after being called the 'most ideal candidate and the best fit' by the interviewer, I didn't make it.
In the interview feedback session, the same interviewer had no specific reasons of not selecting me.
What could have gone wrong guys?
Well, I didn't give up. I tried for the same profile position in their another office in India only. This time, after clearing the first round [telephonic round from the US office], the "another office" HR couldn't find a "suitable interviewer" for me - for 3 months. Don't be surprised about "suitable interviewer" - this is exactly what the HR lady told me. The particular business unit, the profile, AND the position existed pretty well there.
I finally decided to quit.
Years after the incident, I still don't know what happened and why I failed time after time.
Is it HR, the local management, or just my bad luck?

15:In my experience of working as a external recruiter for a BIG company with branches in India and Abroad. I had the same expereince of candidates , they advertised the profiel as for abroad and then did interviews and gave them a stupid reason in the end saying that the profile was only for 2 months onsite , ok none of the guys joined. So the project came to us as the local HR in India lifted the hands up saying that they cannot recruit them for abroad as no one is interested in coming despite of good salary. Ok, we jumped into the Recruitment spree and unfortunate or fortunately we also got out with 2 guys who already appeared in that company and got selected and rejected the offer as it was for India and only 2 months Onsite. We explained them it was a permanent position , so all in all in 5 positions to recruit none of the guys were recruited from us though all of them were sent mails from Abroad branch that they can start with them once their work permits are done. We were all jubiliated but after 2 weeks , without any reason , we(recruiters) were blamed for no reasons like no value added service and price is too high and like fishing in same pool and so on. the local HR people in India should know that they are not demi gods, if their technical companions dont exist they will also not exists.they are not our boss , i think they dont know this , that none of the HR guys are even fit to be thought as Superior guys ...as no one feels inferior and superior , is this the professional environment and one should keep it so. In one of my interviews i had to take in India , iam a technical person , the HR manager started showing off and i too banged him back , and kept in contact with Tech manager and worked it out. They are a heck of shit.

16: Neccesity of leave application might be sometimes very urgent, due to project completion deadlines some of the managers might cancell off there leave. Due, to such situation sometimes employee will be forced to quit his company since he might think " employer is not worried about the importance of individual employer", to be sincere enough its very difficult for the employer (especcially company being an MNC) to know each and very individual personelly, but I still suggest corporate world should take care of some measures to do it.
Employee might require leaves due an urgent problems, to be precise urgency will never come to come an individual in advance, but it arrives in a flash... Please have a note on it.
Thanks,

21: I completely agree. I was there when yadav committed suicide in S2. I regret joining Wipro. I have had the worst time in this company. HR here is bull shit. Managers are hostile and do not have people management skills. Leadership is very unimpressive. I have been tortured and harrassed. The sexual harrassment committe is just a fancy committee. I had a bad experience and was almost tortured while onsite. On several complaints they did nothing about that guy and instead ridiculed me.
My boss was harsh with me as his ego was hurt when I did not go for some vague dinner and drinks party that was not even formal.
Today I am on medication thanks to the severe anxiety.
I want to leave this Company as well. Cant spend another day here.

24: There is an urgent need to create an "IT Employee Union" to fight for our rights collectively. This is happening again and again and we all are sleeping. Everyone knows what Sapient did, how it fired around 500 employees a few months back. The most surprising thing was that all those employees exited the company in the way as though they were a herd of sheeps or goats. None of them dared to put any resistance or protest.

28: Employers as a rule hardly look at the human side of the reasons for quitting. This leads to more employees feeling isolated, misunderstood and unhappy. In turn it leads to suicides. The solution as I see it is employers should see less business value and more human values

30: WORKERS UNITE :

Thank you Shilpa for your response. Vishal and Vikas had not only lost their jobs but also their life journey ended prematurely. It clearly demonstrates that employees are totally disorganized, isolated, and have no collective bargaining power. Look at the employees of the Banking industry. They are well organized and they work together to protect their interests at the Workplace. In the United States, several categories of very well paid employees are organized and they firmly bargain their rights. The Police, the Firemen, the Teachers, and even the Faculty members at the Universities have their Unions and negotiate the terms of employment. There is something basically wrong about the manner that was used to conduct the Performance Evaluation of Vikas and Vishal. These two young people were targeted for unfair elimination. The process should be transparent and the rules of the Game should be well known to all of the players. I would still assert that the Companies are Criminally negligent and they have not used safety devices that would have prevented employees plunging down from their buildings. The buildings should be inspected to protect the safety of the employees and it is hazardous to work in these buildings if there are no safety barriers.

31: Dear Public,
We wipro have defined ploicies, for everything. If a Employeee comits sucide, we will do the necessary things as per the policy.
Our HR team, Debashis Chaterjee, Achala Mahesh, Piyuesh Dubey, Divya George etc., are really good in removing more than 16,000 people without any problems. I don't know wich HR has talked to vishal for removing from WIPRO. Definitely I will fire the HR.
We are buisness oriented organisation, Vishal has created revenue for the past 5 years,permonth on average he earned 6000 USD, we have given him 600USD permonth. we used to get a profit of 5400USD/month. If he is in bench we cannot generate any revenue. How can we pay the 600 USD, Thats why we asked to leave wipro.He doesn't have the guts to take it forward. We will try to negotiate with the indian Govt and solve this ..becaues we have enough money.ha ha
More layoffs will follow, I have raised my Share value from 220 Rs to 490Rs.this is a pure business.

33:I guess Mr. Premji need to update the statistics a bit more accurately. 16K is an old number. The number of people fired by Wipro in the false pretext of performance is above 24,000. This figure is for the period Sep 2008- August 2009. May be Mr. Premji can never explain how so much (more than 24K) low performers bundled together in Wipro all of a sudden. It is more than 30 percentage of the total headcount of Wipro

Public will not see much change in the overall head count at Wipro because freshers from campus (Cheap for the company) has been inducted in approximately equal amounts. This works out extremely cheap (1 to 6 cost on average) for Wipro, but clients has already started complaining about the drop in quality of work. Add to that the cheap publicity stunts done by your team portraying Wipro honoring campus recruitments even in the difficult times. How innovative of you...

If Mr. Premji thinks that the people who are fired for no fault of theirs is gonna spare you, think again. Sooner or later we will come for your head and your top managements. All the money you've swindled by fooling and unlawfully terminating employees is not gonna save you on those painful days. We very well know where you live, how you travel including vehicle numbers and thanks to your punctuality and strict schedules, where you would be at any point of time to a fairly large degree of accuracy.

You reap what you saw. We will ensure that you pay a heavy price for your inhumane decisions. Start "Applying Thought" on migrating to another country because we've vowed to make you life a living hell in India.

38: This is very sad,these days most of the organizations be it IT related or not are doing like this,They put the pressure on the employee to resign.
Proper investigation has to be done and the guilty punished,if not there might be more cases like in the future.

39: The people dying here are highly educated engineers.They work in companies to make there career. Just that company is not doing well doesnot mean that company or management puts pressure on employees harass them put tough metrics to manipulate employee metrics and show them down on metrics is not good practices. These practices of employers depress employees.
Employees in India (most of them) are highly educated and disserve respect they should not be treated cheaply and taken for granted. Company's should not impose there insecurities on employees.

42: In these days of recession, job loss, etc. the stress level is very high. This stress can lead to unexpected results like suicide, in rare cases. Most often, it leads to hypertension, diabetes, depression and other chronic diseases. What to do if you find yourself in such a situation. Let alone the loss of income, in a country like ours, social stigma plays a critical role. No doubt, it's each and everyone's karma that's coming to fruition. But is there a way out of this deadly chakravyuh?

Yes. Only the Divine can help you get out get of your own mess (karma). Bring God into your life and involve Him in each and every action that you do. Each one should try to work out a strategy to involve the Divine that works best for him/her. You may not see any results overnight, but over time, as your Faith & Trust increases, so will you begin to see miracles unfold. I tell this from experience. I have provided the links a few Youtube clips below and suggest that you watch it with an open mind. Who knows, they may contain the answers to some of the readers.

46: VISHAL AND VIKAS - TWO BEAUTIFUL NAMES :

The parents of these two young engineers had chosen such beautiful names and the unfortunate ending of their lives raises many questions.
1. Workplace Harassment : What are the policies and procedures established by these Companies to prevent, to report, and to correct Workplace Harassment? These two young men could be victims of Harassment and hence the deaths are unnatural and should be investigated as Crimes. Their story cannot be reported as 'SUICIDE' until a full criminal investigation is conducted.
2.Workplace Safety : Workplace should provide a safe and secure environment to all of its employees. The employee should have no access to the roof of the building, particularly a High-rise building.The employer is responsible and is expected to install security devices to prevent access. The door should be secure and could also be armed with an alarm system. The jump from 5th floor also poses several questions about security and access and reporting to Police immediately after the incident. The Police must know that there was no foul paly.
3. Job Security and Job Counselling : If the employee had no legal contract, the employer should provide proper Counselling about job opportunities and should hire an independent Psychologist to provide psychological counselling prior to termination of employment. When a person is hired for a job, the person is provided 'Job Orientation'. When a person is removed from a job, the displaced person should be provided a mandatory psychological counselling to cope up with the consequences of the loss of job and income. For a newly hired person, most Companies insist upon Job Orientation and hence job termination should be preceded by Psychological Counselling.
4.Civil Rights : An employee is entitled to Civil Rights even if the person has no job contarct. The employee cannot be subjected to unfair treatment.
5.Employee Organizations : If not Trade Unions, employees have to organize themselves and protect and defend their interests at Workplace. It appears that Vishal and Vikas had worked at places where the employees are not properly organized and hence exploitation and abuse is possible.
Finally, I would ask all readers to believe in the Fifth Fundamental Force that operates the Universe and the Living Entities. The Universe that we live in, and our individual existence is not because of our physical capacity or intelligence. We exist because of a Force/Energy/Power which has been described in Sanskrit language as 'KRUPA'. When we recognize that Force, it changes the direction of our physical movement upon planet Earth.When you think of jumping from a High-rise building or consuming poison, or harming your own existence, just reflect upon this Force called Krupa and it transforms your life and changes its course. Krupa works like the Gravitational Force, a Force that keeps all the heavenly bodies to move in an orderly manner. When this order is removed, the resulting CHAOS would cause Massive Collisions.To keep your existence on the correct course, invoke that Mercy, Compassion, and Grace that caused the existence. We have no energy or natural ability of our own to exist in Nature.All of us with or without jobs, in good health or sickness, young or old, just depend upon the Bestower of Krupa for our Human Existence.
I am speaking about it from my personal experience. A young person known to me had wanted to jump from a High-rise building, Before he could take that fatal leap, he just turned back.In a fraction of a second,the direction, the physical course of his movement got changed, and on his own, he walked back. He still lives with his problems but he did not end up like VISHAL or VIKAS, two beautiful names whose journey could not be changed on time.

48: I had worked in five companies during a tenure of 10 years.
I resigned from first four companies, owing to unfriendly HR policies. These firms had asked for notice period, and compliance of hand over procedures before giving me with my relieving letters. The fifth company totally pissed me off. The HR was a headstrong guy. He asked me to fire a subordinate of mine which I did not agree with, because I couldn't find any proper cause. He retaliated by mailing me a letter of termination, without any notice period or pay. while the letter was on the way, he rang up to tell me that I should not come to office the very next day onwards. It was just one month back that a son was born to me, and I had the task of caring for two lives under my wings. The HR obvisously knew that and he carried immense enjoyment in firing me and depriving me of a proper relieving letter, neither did he explain the reasons for firing. For the next six months, I was looking for jobs, with a firing history just behind my back and absence of references, all doors closed before me. I just clinged on to life in good faith, and with the strong sense of responsibility that I had to protect two other lives.It was no less than seven months util I found a job, till then I had to survive on credit cards. I know my story is not one in the kind. The public has to be aware and enlightened to make sure we have protective measures in place for the helpless disorganized young IT employees

I think we are making much hue and cry on IT companies because of recession n layoff. Export companies have vastly affected due to recession but nobody knows the agony of their employee.IT companies are still knwon for their best HR policies in India.Plz think b4 blame.

58: To all in this forum and working or worked for Wipro, first let us pray for Vishal's soul to rest in peace, support the family which is greaving his death. Well though i do understand the killing oneself is not what i would preach or i would support here, but at the same time we should also know that when one gets to that decision, we need to understand the kind of trauma, mental pressure an individual would go through. Unfortunately i have been associated with this organisation and one of the victims as listed below in this chain. Not with projects but with the middle management and the sr management. for those who are unaware of the ethics these top managers have in corporates specifially in wipro the one phrase i would want to use is WHITE COLLAR CRIMINALS. one should understand the fact that every body wants to save his or her own arse for their own good and not for the organisation. This is right from the front line to the chairman of the organisation. If someone refutes this everyone has or had seen the visual and fact that satyam case. So is Wipro, unfortunately this organisations boasts of intergrety value for people and some scrap which does not exist in a drop of attidue with this organisation. Wipro boasts of high levels of integrity with its people who are with them for 10 yrs - 25 yrs or even more... do you know the kind of assests these people pose or own in their family and friends name... the kind of benefits these guys get from the vendors.. the bribes which they pay for the politicians .. well in some case the politians are better .. least we know what they are about. It is heartening to hear that these are the guys who talk about the operations in government and politicians. Not deviating into the topic, the worst ever HR team which i have seen in my career. Today any organization is interested in recruiting HR professionals from IIM, or any five star university... theory these guys can talk for hours, but if it comes to acutal implementation these HR teams would not hesitate to throw the ball in others court. I am writing this hoping at some point of time Mr Premji reads this comment and stops worring about turnovers and also to start worrying about the resources which has given him such amount of dollars and a prestige in the country. I am sure this is gonna be a mirage.. a mere mirage ... i just pray that we do not get any more vishals / vikas. Someone was telling about labour laws, but gentlemen most of you software guys do not bother to know your rights, nevertheles we have an disgusting labour laws which are dated back to the 1948 which does not have any such provision to handle such kind of attrocities.. Well atleast this incidence though unfortunate has opened up .. to create a forum and a kind of representations..

And as everyone is not same and strong enough to handle such situations, they try easy ways to end up everything. And now a days its not so easy to get a job for evryone when hundreds and thousands of people are standing in front of you and behind you for the same job.

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.

76: From the paragraph " Wipro engineer, Vishal Yadav (29), had a BE in electronics and hailed from Madhya Pradesh. Since May 17, 2004, he was working with Wipro as a Business Analyst and had gone on leave for two months. Interestingly, he had put in his papers via e-mail and was supposed to be relieved of his duties on August 31."

the following investigations must be done by police.
1> Reason for going for such a long leve.
2> why he has been asked forserving 2 months service period ?
3> Extent of mental tortures provided by WIpro managers to Vishal in last discussions, like appraisal, TED , Project discuiions with him,
His immidiate superwiser and privious superwiser, and privious to privious superwisers should be brought in for investigation and

4> vishal's team members should also be investigatedin tis regard in his last project .

5> Vishal's parents and his cousins and his room mates too should provide his last comments on his career at wipro.


I am damn sure 99.99 % the one of managers of Vishal had given him mental torture which leed him for suicide. and I am sure wipro will do all circus in hiding this.

Parents & Relatives of Vishal should be very carefull in this regard and if wipro tries to pay some amount , to hide this from deep investigation , then the parents and relatives should immidiately inform police and further help others in this regard

84: 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.

85:NASSCOM is nothing but pure shit run by b..ds for bas..s. Left to themselves they would like to make everyone in India a call center robotic slave so that their members get rich and they too. GOI should disband this organisation if India is to become innovative like China, which is too much to expect from the fools who rule India.

87:Hi Gentleman / Noble Lady,

I feel really happy to see your +ve Message to the young people.

life is not just getting money for your loved ones, it is much more than just money.

while others were cursing the Companies, and the HR people, or entire people in the system.

It is quite unfortunate that both the Engineers has got upset rather got dipressed becuase of the so called recession.

I am not really with you in some of your statements, but may what come, all of us has to live our life.

I strongly Condemn if they has been harrased by their supervisors, it is the Responsibility of the top management team, to instruct their team, to handle the employees with humanity. all of the top management is still earning money based on the tasks done by the employees, who has lost life now. they would have brought you atleast 4-6 fold of what you were paying them, what you will loose if you are paying them for 1 month without even billing, maximum your profit after TAX may slightly comedown, worse is the share value may come down, but in the 2nd or atleast 3rd month they will get you much more returns.

I sugeest this to all great HR team please use your skills contructively for the sake of a life atleast.

I also wish to communicate who curse the HR team & Companies, please note that nothing is free in the world, will you give something free for a longer time to your own cousins / Neighbors, then how do you all expect they company has to take care of you just becuase they hired you.
if you are not giving returns I assure you if they keep paying say 100s / 1000s of employees from whom they are not able to take the returns, they will be like other US companies (Bankruptcy)is this what you want? and as a consequence that company can not sustain their financials forget about the Profit / Share Value, they will start making Loss if they do not bill you more than 35 - 40 days, they also pay you that huge. let us try to understand and respect each other first.

in some of the comments I have seen by the so called ex - employees, is this the way to express?, now are you not harassing the Team HR / Top Managemet, by comenting in 3rd degree language, will they not decide to throw their life because of your harrasements, by then will you all go and extend help to their families?

it is really non sense and all of us have enjoed the facilities whien we have served the comapnies, like pick up drop, food at Subsidised price with all other aminities in the premises, ofcourse we have enjoyed all becuase of our SKILLS.

My deep condolence, to the family members, friends and the relatives of Mr. Vishal Yadav and Vikas Kumar Sharma

88: Dear Sir,
Don't worry, bad comments here are generalized and no body will commit suicide reading them. Yes some nice manager and HR will feel bad. And I must correct your stat, companies bill at least 10 times more money than what they pay to employee. There will be always 600% profit for billed person after considering all expenses and taxes. The problem is these companies recruit a lot of people for bigger expansion. And roll back equally fast way if something like recession happens. This is not a good practice even by management book, this practice is purely due to greed.

90: One thing i would like to tell as an ex - wipro employee is that,

Wipro treats emplyees as use and throw tissue papers.
second thing there are no professionals in this company\'s senior management,
the real fact is that wipro has provided all its employees profiles to some consultency and has requested the list of emplyees whom it should layoff soon, according to few norms.
According to the list of employees provided by this consultency , wipro is planing to lay off them with all dirty tricks.

Though I resigned wipro, two years ago ,I have seen the kind of torture the red taged managers providing,
I have seen many managers who are roaming with beautifull girls without considering them as their reportees and without giving them any assignments.

In wipro performance was not the matter for termination, But the fact is that Red Tag/Green Tag managers play hell lot of politics.example I have seen so many tamilian managers taking only tamilians into their teams ,cisco ODC is one for example .these managers speak only their mother toungue language even during training sessions and team meetings.If by chance resource team forces to take some good talented person for these kind of teams,then managers and other team memebrs unite and srew the new joinee and then they lay off.It is very dangerous to join his company

third fact, there are so many hidden deductons done in pay.
Beyond PF they deduct gratuity amount and pension amount too, both of which can not be used by employee in any means,
those who know they do circus and take. But normally resigned employees are not taking this pension fund. and hence wipro retains this pension most of the times withhout paying it to employee at the time of separation.

coming to appraisal,managers do play very very bad politics . The managers set very strong goals and objectives for those whom these managers dont want personally.
I have seen technical managers requesting money from employees for onsite opportunities.
There are so many cases in which a new joinee to the tema goes onsite in one or two days without having any product training and without having any required knowledge of the project,

coming to employee services , For a Bus pass they charge 1450 Rs per month for a dedicated route for specific time ONLY. If employee chosse some other route bus then they charge 500 /- Rs fine. Most of the drivers /bus/route related complaints filed by employees are not at all resolved,

Last but most worst thing, Most of the red tag and green tag managers use very very bad words to toture their reportees. Bugger,Dude etc etc words were becoming very populer in some teams,

For me still I ave doubt whether Premji is aware of it or not,
He can now safely remove the second item of the \"spirit of wipro\" i.e he can remove \"ACT WITH SESITIVITY\" just to keep reality in front of its employees

Few more facts , Wipro uses its integrity policies to just fire the unwanted employeeand not to secure aby thing.
It has fired many 100s employess just by saying "integrity violaton done by you , since you have entered anothr lab without getting access. etc etc

91:Frustoo, I completely agree with you regarding the regional bias on team formation. Till date, I don't know why generally Indians from south band together closely and actively exclude people from west India for example. Although we live in a country where society continues to be divided along lines of caste, religion, language etc, it is sad that this attitude is also taken into Professional interaction at Wipro. I'll give you one example, a couple of years back, they came for campus recruitment and everyone could see that they clearly favoured their "kins from south" first. One fresher woman was selected, merely after singing a song for the interviewer at the HR round! But because they are compelled to hire the minimum numbers (for company's growth and other malicious reasons), they took on a number of people from other states. I am glad I wasn't selected for Wipro...would surely have been a victim of the red and green tagged managers.

It's good that such views are brought up in the open and potential employees looking to work in hese companies get to know clearly what they might end up getting into. For the managers, I request them to be more sensitive to their reportees IRRESPECTIVE of from where they come from. They are actually just engineers put into a management position. Some are grossly incompetent and cause trouble for those who are competent.

Hiring community over merit will fail in the long run...sacrificing diversity will reap negative dividends...recession has finally brought out the darker sides of India's IT story...and a pair of tragic deaths have opened some eyes...

98: Wipro management has blood on their hands. At the bare minimum, the managers and HR responsible should immediately be arrested for questioning before they devise ways to escape arrest and dilute evidences.

My brother is a Wipro'ite (still) and I can confirm that Wipro is notorious for putting immense pressure on employees to resign and they've been doing it unchecked for the last 2 quarters at least. If the employee doesn't resign, they threaten to be blacklist them in NASSCOM NSR which affects future employability. The amount of people thrown out by Wipro (Forced Resignation) in the false pretext of performance is a mind boggling 24,000 and counting.

It is high time that this company be thoroughly screened for its so-called people policies. So much for a company going by the motto "Act with Sensitivity".

99: Suicide is only one side of the issue here. Other side is how will the company officials deal with the Indian police apparatus. A simple questioning by the police constables and SHO can lead to more suicides by the company officials. Just words like thoo, nee etc. by the uncouth policemen can either lead them to commit suicide or get them hospitalised with hysteria or nervous breakdown.
To put is simply, a customer query to any of the BPO organisations which can be acted on from inside the company staff will be well handled, but then if it has to deal with the outside India, including the government apparatus, things dont get done fast and effectively. Clear answer refuse to come.

Today too there are too many opportunities prevailing in the market if one is regardless to position or pay...... Someone who is actually qualified for a job, why should he or she be fired.. comitting sucide is actually a dumb fools job.

109: Interestingly,
I heard that VISHAL was on enrichment.
It seems that VISHAL had a meeting with the HR on that day. Don't know though.

Well Someone was asking why would he commit suicide ?
I would go for the answer PURE FRUSTRATION. If he had family problems, he wont come to our tower and wait till 10:30 to jump from the 9th floor.
Wipro is synonymous for Employee harassment and bad politics. these top b@stards who dont even know what work you do, would frustrate you to the extreme.
Few example would be,
When you are leaving after a days hefty work, your manager comes to you and asks "Hey you are leaving now ? Have you completed the work ? "..... "ohh ok, maybe I didnt check my mails"

Another one
You have implemented some new features in the tool, got clients appreciation and thus won the confidence, at the time of appraisal your manager would write like this
"His performance on the work was acceptable / satisfactory. you could come up with more ideas / approaches."

Another one.
"see mr xyz, for reasons beyond control, I wish to say that you will have to leave this project. However you have two months time, and i personally suggest you start searching elsewhere"

Still frustrating.
"I came to your desk and you were not there, you are always in the restroom"

Now you must be thinking about complaining to the HR, well, there is the real fun. Comments like, "you should have communicated with your manager on this." "Why didnt you get clarity on this", "Let me go thru it again and I will get back to you"
finally the HR would say
"see mr V things cant be undone right now and its the decision from the top management that you....."

Have I made myself clear or do you want more reasons for frustrations.

The WHOLE SYSTEM is a joke...... have any one tried feed back on appraisal ?
Mywipro >> My forum >> survey >> survey bank >> appraisal 2009 ? there is no submit button there are filthy questions with multiple choice answers and for all the questions, you can select only answer to one question, you choose the next answer and the previous answer selected is removed.
Do you think that no one has noticed this silly bug ? Its just that no one is there to ask.
There was no mail regarding this death nothing.

Azim premji is aware of all this, but he is busy minting money for himself, thinking more ways to increase business, buying profitable firms. he doesnt care.

112: Furthering my comment, I'll state an incident of mine that would portray the insensitivity of HR people.

While quitting my previous job, during my exit interview (which is supposed to be taken as a feedback for company's improvement), I was asked, why I was quitting.

The HR guy was not listening to my answers to any of his questions and kept saying 'OK...Good' to all my answers. When I said that the reason for my quitting was that I have to relocate to Mumbai, because my mother is not keeping well, he mechanically said 'OK...Good'.

I got up from my seat and left after telling him that there was no point in continuing this further.

So much for CONSTUCTIVE CRITICISM.

113: Dude, this is a common misconception people have, that if we commit suicide, our nominees will get the insurance benfits. This is not the case, since death by suicide voids the insurance agreement and nobody will get any money. Death by suicide is not covered.

The incident that has occurred is not just sad, but symbolises the fact that Human Resources treat us employees only as resources and not humans. If HR personnel, did their jobs as they should, things could have been better. Instead they work for the upper management and keep screwing the very employees they were supposed to help.

I can relate to this personally, as a similar incident had happened in my company, in the very project that I had been working on. All the company did was hush up the whole incident.

If the main motive of a company was only to make profit, then the methods employed by the 'D-Company' become legitimate, as even the gangsters work for profits. However, the way in which they make profits is by dishonorable means, by extortion, using peoples fears. A legitimate company's motto should be to make profit, but in an 'Honorable Manner'.

I think all IT and ITES employees must be given the right to union by the government and have the personnel department instead of HR.

All in all-Shame on all you HR folks, for letting this happen- DO YOUR JOBS

I am sure wipro will try it's best to prove that it was a freak accident and he fell off from the building and didn't commit suicide. we still have not got any communication from management about this incident. this is the humane values from a company which brags endlessly about human values, integrity, honest etc. i hate this place called wipro.

133: Hi,

I can see tempers flaring and people are taking out their frustration on people who are not connected with what has happened. My sympathies are with Siva. I would like to take the example of Manufacturing industries. They deal with blue collared workers day in and day out. They have a grievance cell with an Independent Ombudsman who is the decisive authority on majority of cases. If the employee is not satisfied with the decision of ombudsman, then he can challenge this decision in a labor court. No point in blaming the CEO or the management. We are like the race horses who have flaps beside their eyes to avoid distractions. We being educated don't know our rights and the law of the land which can help us in crisis. We are cowards who run away from crisis and end up dead. So educate your self. Nobody will step over you if you have the right knowledge. Our freedom struggle is a striking example of the power of knowledge. Our freedom fighters were no "aam aadmi". They were all well educated and our constitution is proof of it. Today if recession did not have its full effect in India, it is because of the foundation that had been laid then. So, Jago India Jago.

137: Who knows whether these people were forced to quit?
Wipro has a program called ENRICHMENT PROGRAM wherein the employ is told take leave for a bulk amount of days.
Even these IT companies have a policy of making employ resign forcefully since there is no projects coming in due to recession. These use and throw kind of TISSUE PAPER CULTURE should be checked and stopped by the GOVT: OF INIDA

141:Since I have been closely associated with wipro for last 4 years I do have an inkling on whats brewing at all levels of Managements.

An incident like this shakes us all, It's a time for introspection for us for our values, Is mindless pursuit of operating margin a worthy ideal over human lifes, whats more precious 2 percentage points of opm or one human life,
Also for dramatization lets change the life in question here to Azim's son Rishabh and Tariq.

I know I am being dramatic, but its only these extremes which force us to come out with workable solutions.

Also my only essence here is why are we being budhist and consuming the violence within ourselves by directing within, I am not sure but rather then killing oneself we can contemplate a western ethos of directing the voilence within ourselves out side , we can always kill the HR and the TM's who force us into such a state.

mind you for every one suicide case we have over a 1000 depression cases with lifes shattered.

pls note the thoughts here are not to instigate or provoke, they are here to create effective detterents to the powers that be.

142: Having gone through the posts of most of the people, I am struck by the frequency with which people are pointing fingers at others. Rarely do you hold yourself responsible for your actions and behaviour. It is easy to shout against and blame CEOs, HR heads and Managers, as if they are aliens. Please remember, just like Saas bhi kabhi bahu thi, Manager bhi kabhi junior tha! Some day, you will also be responsible for business units and profitable performance, and you will need to take tough decisions about people.

Tough times visit every one and every company. Be tough internally to withstand the pressure. Don't try and sensationalize things even before you know all the details. The same guys who jumped to their deaths might also commit suicide if a girl refuses to go out on a date with them!

Grow up, guys! Also it might be a good idea to learn how to communicate clearly and accurately in the language you have chosen to communicate in. Most of the posts I have seen here are pathetically written. :-(

I know many of you are going to start abusing me for what I am saying here. That is the first response you are used to, I think.

All said and done, I am still pained at the deaths reported.

145: I dont want to be diplomatic here. But its really understandable why people are being sacked out and also we can imagine what extent the person has suffered that he/she commits suicide. But one thing i would suggest is if we are confident enough we should not fear such decisions taken by the company. Suicide is just a way to runaway from ourselves and does not good to ones family in particular. We should definetly believe in ourselves and stand up to the challenge and prove that we as employee can be the best coming out of the worst case scenarios. You have been in a top major IT company itself means that you were one of the best. Why do you fear going out to face another challenge.. Its easier said than done but that was just my thoughts on the topic.

149: Dear Friends

This happens to all sector employees. But the depression is more high in IT because of their previous benefits. So instead of blaming companies we must EDUCATE the employees to face frustration and depression. Have to arrange rejuvenation centres to give treatments to mentally harassed persons.

It happened with me as well, I was with HCL, and company normally send their employees to their different locations for temporary work. I was sacked on the same cause, and bruatally insulted by Prem, HR GM, located at Sector 51. And, asked me to go out else the security throw me out. I lietrally had same feeling, because behaviour was so insulting, it was untoreable, as I was staying with my family, I just been taken care off.

has happened to me twice,it mostly happens to people who are very true and faithful, becoz someone elses personal and professional interets get effected in the hierarchy,
so why cry and commit suicide.
Yes, all of us cannot fight cases for the system is so that we will become old.
Last but not the least, we can form association and lets not be one sided.
Lets follow Ram Dev Ji Maharaj and Vipassana, and see the true matrix reality, that life is more important, material things come and go. SO DEAR ALL LETS FACE IT AND BECOME HUMANS, THATS WHAT WE ARE, NOT JANAWARS.ALL SYSTEMS OF HRDS FAIL WHEN WE START LOOKING INSIDE US BELIEVE EMPLOEE POWER IS THE MOST IMPORTANT RESOURCE OF THE COMPANY.

184: Know your True Value! (Read & Forward Please)

A well-known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a 500 $ note. In the room of 200 Peoples,

He asked, "Who would like this 500 $ note?"

Hands started going up..

He said, "I am going to give this note to one of you but first let me do this."

He proceeded to crumple the note up.

He then asked, "Who still wants it?"

Still the hands were up in the air.

"Well," he replied, "What if I do this?"

And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now all crumpled and dirty.

"Now who still wants it?"

Still the hands went into the air.

"My friends, you have all learned a very valuable lesson.

No matter what I did to the money.

You still wanted it because it did not decrease in value. It was still worth 500 $/-.

Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way. We feel as though we are worthless.

But no matter what has happened or what will happen.

Never lose your value.

You are special. Don't ever forget it! Never let yesterday's disappointments overshadow tomorrow's dreams.

"VALUE HAS A VALUE ONLY IF ITS VALUE IS VALUED"
