New Beginning
Golden Run has come to an end. Reality is embarrassing the sky flyers of the Info. Tech. Industry.
One of the most developed and hyped sector of dream India is coming to the terms of the realism and economical doctrine. One of the first industries, in India to get the rich chunk of the government policies after India opened the doors for the foreign players to do the business in India. It has evolved and got enriched with the time in last 10 years; consider being a golden era for the IT sector. It was Golden run for industry as well as for those employees of the industry, who call them the most able, potent and skilled people in India.
I am sure none of the IT guy would know the principles of economics, the same time IT companies too, might forget the rules of economics. I may sound little annoyed or jealous on IT field, but that’s not the fact. I am not intent so sound pessimistic. I may be wrong, I am just trying to figure out the reality of IT sector and attitude of those are working in the sector.
Along with those skilled and multitasking experts, large Number of IT HELPERS were also flying high. During the golden era, lot many colleges across the nation popped up offering any damn course in IT, making everyone highly skilled and talented IT biggies. We may forget the principles of trade and business cant. No private sector In India has gone without any correction. Only public sector can flourish without worries as they need not to think about income, revenue and costing. For It was a rich and prosperous evolvement from the scratch.
Every private sector has to go through some kind of correction after certain span of time. For me it’s high time in IT sector as well. As long as I understand the international trade and economics, IT sector is less affected by economical slow down worldwide, but more by much awaited correction. People in IT were in kind of illusive mindset that no one can really hamper their rally. Now they are being brought to the reality by slowdown and simple economics. Economy may be simple, as it seems certainly not smoother one.
What you think Industry doesn’t have the jobs? They do. Certainly they do. IBM just offered their American staff to join Indian Units. Means Indian IT still providing jobs, but to whom? Certainly not for those who were working in the industry as an IT HELPERs. Many friends of mine have lost their jobs otherwise on the verge of losing it. I always have heard them taking about one thing. It’s not my words, words from ITens Only. IT companies have only 30% of staff worthy and rest eating fruit of self developed IT sector. Only 30% are the real assets for the industry and rest getting salary for surfing social network sites and listening to the songs.
What else can u expect in such a situation? Cost cutting is the reality now in IT. IT companies have to lay off unnecessary burden and only need to reward who are the real assets for the company.
As soon as I wake up in the morning on Friday, the last working day, my eyes got wide open and stand still. All my 4 friends were planning to go to Goa. It was surprised to me. Goa, in this season? Are they going crazy?
No they were not. The plan they have made out of the given situation to laugh at the circumstances, they are getting into. One has already lost the job and another one is going to be unemployed next month. Another 2 are planning to change the company as they are not getting good salary from the company. That's where I am concerned, their attitude.
I was talking to one of the senior and very experienced guy, working in the IT sector in UK. When i asked him about his opinion on IT Industry as a whole and Indian IT sector in particular, he echoed my sentiments. He told me that IT people in India were always over paid, and that had made them more greedy to demand more without delivering the goods. Unduly hype was given to the industry as well as the people working in it.
This is where I am concerned. The attitude of ma fallow Indians working in the IT sector, still flying high. One of my friends just gets the job after 3 months of unemployment with decent package. He left the job in just 2 days, 'Coz Company is not good. After 2 years of experience in smaller companies he want job that can offer him Lac Rs. per month.
Hundred of examples of same kind are available in front of me. I know everyone is not the same and may be in some cases potential people may have lost the job or on the verge of, but guys we need to look at the present scenario which is not conducive to make demands.
Experts are saying that because of the worldwide slow down, it has become more chipper to work with Indian IT firms and that’s why more and more work is coming to India. Company like IBM has offered their North American Employees to work in India and Other South East Asian countries. It shows that work is there and increasing with slow pace, but why no new employment in the sector? Coz companies have already people in excess, and under the cost cutting scenario they are going to lay off more IT helpers, as they are merely burden on the firm.
You may have skills but you have to respect the situation and have to move according to its demand. Compromise with the package and other facilities will make your place sure sooner or later, or else Sector itself will compromise with you and move ahead without you. IT firms do have limited requirement but for those who are multitasking and not mere an IT helpers.
Don’t let yourself down, you have played big role in making Dream India, reality for us, and you again going to play the same role for us. It’s about time, which demands patience and balance head on shoulder from us. You still have lots of work to do to construct new progressive Indian society and certainly for our progress. You are still good enough, don’t doubt yourself, you along with others going to play a crucial role to build new world for us. What we need is……..
Just little wisdom and future belongs us…………INDIA.
