Finally in business perspective they have won kudos and listed in the NASDAQ and it makes Indians proud (NRI's included).
The struggle behind the story is well forgotten they also had their share of downfalls. We ,as human beings, unfortunately dont seem to like the success story and try to find a black spot somewhere.
Rcently rediff has been trying to highlight Infosys a lot, but then thats business is what they call.
hellp plp! please grow up,i jus cant get why is thut all are blaming on indian companies. if u plp think that MNC companies are far more better than indians, since they have their own products(jus like IBM!),then why dont they do well in consulting services. The recent revenue figures says it all! IBM ,topping the fortune 500 has generated half the revenue(4195 mn $)when compared to TCS or infosys! where does their fame rank in consulting services! and if u guys are seriously interested in product development ,many of the indian companies do have R&D .why not try joining them and channelise ur talents! why always opt for google,yahoo or microsoft and help them to grow ,finally end up criticising indian companies!
first appreciate the fact that infy is earning money/foreign currency for the country able to provide bread and butter to thousands of employee...
abouy product yes they should think a know they have only one world class product finacle , may be more than that i may not be aware of that but yes infy top boss should understand that now indian aspiration is infy/tcs/satyam/... should come out with world class product for which all indian should be proud of as well as other folks of the world.
all said and done mr murthy, mr nilekani etc should be appreciated for their pioneer work
I am really amazed to hear foolish people talk of infosys as a \"grass cutting\" company !!! :-O
goodness gracious!
Infosys has long been the pioneer and charter of everything it has ventured into. while for TCS, the formulae has always been a simple work=resources X no. of hours Infosys has always found out novel ways of approaching work and has always succeeded in executing ground breaking projects.
The very fact that the world market - nasdaq today recognizes infosys as india\'s face to the world speaks volumes.
we have always been the best, and will always remain so. anyways, no use discussing these with \"sarkari naukri karnewala\" TCS folks ! :) they wouldnt know anyways! :))
I agree with the guy who has commented the Infy as a grass cutting company.
Does Infy has a branded product??. What it sells?
Can it be able to design and sell atleast a single software procut such as adobe acrobat?? Noway.
It simply sells Indian intelligent manpower to do some crap work to the so called developed countries.
Since money is coming in, no one thinks about that. Once the so called companies moves to still cheap labour producing countries with some good communication skills, then the necessity of innovation arises and whether Infy is ready for that?

Think again the "FINACLE" the banking product, of IT Giant, taking the world of banking by Storm in Europe, Middle east, ASEAN etc.
Dear All, What Nandan Nilekani have said is really good to read but are these actually followed? Are the employees really valued the way they should be and happy? If yes, then why are people leaving so frequently. I hope we should remember that "MONEY is not everything and all people do not work ONLY for Money. They also want to be valued within". Also the management should remember that there is a saying that "People don't leave BAD organization, they leave BAD managers" Management in Infosys may say that "since people are getting good opportunities so they are leaving". Are the management in Infosys really thinking "Why on the very first time, people within Infosys are looking out for opportunities?". And also they should remember, that we cannot defy or go against nature. If Farmers allowed to grow weeds along with paddy, then the quality of paddy would be poor. So they remove the weeds. This is NATURE. Either grow good paddy or leave with poor quality. Can these messages be passed to the Infosys management? Regards
Dont try to mock others and look intelligent , if u dont understand the etiquettes of business today , u r no more than a dumb duck. The business is more and more driving towards a process oriented architecture wherein entire application suites wud be given out as products, as time goes its going to be very very tough to maintain software built applications, software will be pushed to the back and companies like MS wud start giving out products based on software as products are much easier to maintain with newer version rollouts and thats why its very much imperative to build products than being just service oriented companies. I am sure our companies wud have woken up to this truth long time back but they are just yet not ready to leave the golden goose revenue thats coming out of services. Look at MS , its slowly moving the .net architecture to the back, using it as building blocks for products like Dynamics(Great Plains). Indian companies have to come out with Products if at all they want to be there in the market for the next generation.
