Fables told under Tables





life in PISO-
Absolute heaven, total bliss.  Life couldnt have been much better here. what else could a person ask for(obviously take into account that this person would fall into the same caterogy of ppl - when thrown stones at dogs, would inevitably and inadvertantly fall on these same category of ppl in namma bengaluru city- or valley of silicon - of course due to road widening and metro projects running from past decade have made all the silicon(actually referring to actual sand- compostion being---- sorry no chemistry in rhetoric) appear in all walks of life, making it a duty free dusty life here).(Interesting NOTE: roughly a rough survey would yield atleast 50:1 ratio of Engineer to dog in this city).  Full research with ppl getting their own time in coming out with different ideas most of the time, and implementing them all the time inbetween this most of the time.  Managing couldn't have got better with management rules like never before, often perks and incentives being more than the average CTC, with some ETC.  Such dramatic effects unfold in this kind of environment making anyone or everyone(outside this comp) to envy people here associated with such companies.  Whatelse more, gneral folklore that the datarates of downloads, exceed more than the average data maintained in some of the smaller companies.  Inbetween the hectic schedule of working, there are rejuvinating refreshments, with al sorts of facilities and with some utilitites that could be facilitated to utilize efficiently making life much better.  Anybody can be anywhere at any point of time, no eyebrows raised, or no questions to be answered.  Employees are not gods own creation, but demigods.  Sports, activities, pub, night clubs being in the company premises.  Pool in the campus, engineer tailor made for themselves to suit their own agenda without any propaganda.   Such things are not artificial, but infact all natural and existing in a different company far far away-  these are being observed and obviously appreciated by one fo the employee in PISO in one of the mails circulated by a friend working in a different company on similar condition as his, but not as bad as here.  These kinds of circulated mails along with other time pass sites are checked regularly not because the employee in this company is having all the time, but because he is preparing for an extended working hour or working hourS, to show his manager his Attendence sheet, so that the appraisal might not take a backbeat.  However, policies often changse here as frequently as the guys and gals changing their partners/crushes in school days.  The extension of working hours is inherited from top to bottom often the exceptions being ruled out for promotion or hike, or worst, might be even short listed for next recession demotions.  These conniving tricks played by the filthy management with the emotions of daily wage workers here, often forget that the thre are other companies in this silly cone valley that anybody and everybody who doesn't have a goal in life and becomes engineer by default have got a prospective job.


Global hub for international RnD- ruining and destroying centre of the careers of propective spirits.  There is no demigod concept here, but a well known desi-dog concept being followed from high class top management to the inner teams as well.  No one to be spared, same rules apply.  
One ring to rule them all(one and only one company), 
one  thing to find them(outsides unaware of dramas inside) 
one thing to ruin them all,  and in darkness f**** (it can be fire also) 
its called - guessed it right, the very own(not yet fully owned by any indian at top management)PISO..  Often lip smacking salaries, and royal jacking job always guaranteed.


Here, employees are fully satisfied with their dissatisfaction, that they often forget to complain much, since the dissatisfaction level is so saturated that it becomes an excellent example of osmosis, if such an experiment would ever have to be conducted on the brains of employees and checking their complaint co-efficient.  As, there is no use in issues being told or reported apart from the project issues, as the issuse are often discarded as used-tissues.  The HR are the least bothered about the concerns of employees.  There is always scope for improvement in satisfying the customer and being dissatisfied himself for majority of the employees.  Here is the only place where an MD complains of a stolen cookie from his place during his breaks, or where you can bring in any bomb, but cant even take out a mettalic trash CAN without getting noticed.  But sometimes, even the mighty wuold be reduced to knees with the average wits utilized efficiently.  Research(ofcourse our own research) have shown that in this company, if forgotten a nasty memory device in rucksack can easily take it out of premises as he wishes to, ofcourse unnoticed by others, if the man is intelligent enough to perform such chore.


Here, ultimate teachings of the projects are undertaken.  Ultimate because the project starts with integration and bug fixing.  As we are familiar from our engineering subjects, that a new project would start with some study, requirement gathering,design, development, testing and ultimately bug fixing.  The ultimate is done at first.  HOw ultimate is it to start with ultimate steps ultimatley making it more ultimate ultimately.  Sorry, for all the ultimatums, as the words are not forgotten ultimately of this project lifecycle.  An interesting thing, design docs, if ever are made are discussed at last, as the managers are themselves not sure of the requirement, and the requirement changes every alternate days on most of the days, and sometimes, so short of understanding the requirement, shorter even compared to mallike shera**t's clothes or even shorter compared to Ki**a Knig***yes assets(international touch added here, to get feeling of MNC).  Nevertheless, they are still very elegant and generic that the developers can understand them in anyway possible only to be told later to definitely change the working implementation.


Whatmore, its absolute heaven to those referring their friends, who inturn would have snatched their GF's or Bf's or are not just friends, but more than that by being friendly foes.  Refer them to get the referral bonus in addition to welcoming them to hell.  Life is reality and so is this heavenly hell.
