Satyam- The Pre 7/1 era-Part 1 Hyderabad Chapter

SIMSR was the best thing to have happened in my life. It armed me with the much needed killer instinct to survive in this cut throat competition. The faculty the students the environment all propelled and inspires you to achieve the best in the life and probably it was this nurturing that I landed into one of the best and finest IT houses of India- Satyam: the name which itself stands for truth.
Joining day @ Satyam
After lot of joining delays I finally got the mailer to join in Hyderabad- 1st August 2007 being the date, Mashallah being the reporting place. Satyam being the first job for me i was filled with lot of enthusiasm. I landed at the campus with some 20 odd people waiting for their formalities to be completed. Slowly and steadily crowd started building their and i could see some 50 plus MTs waiting for their turn to get into Satyam. What followed was beginning of a day long process full of joining formalities, verification of the documents and finally issuance of the ID cards. I was in-fact the last person in the batch to get the ID card and the offer letter. My joy new no bounds because there I was with the job of my liking and a brand like Satyam being the launch pad. With ecstasy in mind and thoughts I promised to give my best to this company.
My relocation to Pune
An IT company is known for two of the important aspects-resources and customers. It is difficult to separate which breeds the other. It is like the egg and the hen story. You have customers so you require the resources and if you have the resources you can instill confidence among the customers to give them new business. After my joining I was asked to report at City Center office but came to know that the person whom i had to report to had already left Satyam. Within a day I started realising the realities of IT sector. I was on the bench- the IT lingo used for the most idle people in the company. I started following up with the RCC- the resource manager from our unit for some salvation. In this quest I was joined by with another MT from XISS Jharkhand. After six days of continuous and vigorous follow up I came to know that I have been allocated the SAP unit outside Hyderabad. My quest had taken me to a new destination-the cultural capital of Maharashtra, the place of pure Marathi-ism....Enter PUNE

My award winning essay on State Bank

During my sojourn through State Bank, I received numerous appreciations and accolades. One of the noted one was the Essay Competition in March last year wherein my entry was declared the third best in entire India. I reproduce the same here. The topic was related to making State Bank the numero uno bank in the world. Please read and do provide your valuable feedback.   “Business success is less a function of grandiose predictions than it is a result of being able to respond rapidly to real changes as they occur.” Jack Welch, former CEO at GE & famous management guru. State Bank of India has been the pioneer in Indian Banking Industry-pioneer in banking practices, pioneer in products & services and pioneer in the management & implementation. Yet the bank is not where it should have been. Careful analysis of the top 20 banks globally indicates failure to put State Bank at the top. Even current Finance Minister strategizes to put Indian Banking at the world stage...

Conversation with God

A little boy hurt by the worldly ploy Called upon the God And asked “My Lord, Why you gave me heart” Lord replied –“Son- to understand others feelings and emotions” The boy said” God What about my feelings!!!” God replied “For that you have family and friends” The boy further asked” What happens when they don’t value” God replied” Listen to them all the time” The boy said” Have been doing that, never arguing, listening all the time.” God appreciated” That is really god!” “But my listening has become weakness. They consider me stupid and never value my love” The boy sobs. God was awe-stuck but said” Sacrifice yourself!” The boy cried ”Have been killing my feelings for them But nobody respects my emotions. This makes me sad, lost and deserted” Hearing this Lord smiled” Son you passed the real test.” The boy asked “Which test?” God said” the test for your place in my heart. I give you a permanent place in my heart. Come my child…leave this world and come with me” At once the little boy sm...

End of life!!!!!

This is for the people shattered in love.... When the eyes stop dreaming about you When the tears dry up The time has come To say good bye When the heart stops beating your name The feelings burn up in the flame The moment has come For the innings to end When no water fulfills your thirst Since the love has disappeared It is time my friend For the life to end When no food suffices your hunger For the taste no longer lingers It is the time my darling To meet the real king When the life is without any mission For you are not the part of the succession It is high time my jane To lose the gathered fame When the smoke becomes your companion Since the long talks drowned in the ocean My love, the time is ripe For the life to wipe When the aloofness becomes your friend For the friendship has come to an end The time has come For the life to end
