Yes he took tough decision when deciding which secretary to bed. Finally hero decided to force Reka Maximovitch to bed when posted in US. She won a harassment lawsuit. Now you like this person as role model. What that says about your character? If you have daughter or wife or mother will you send to work with him, because he is "great role model". Man if he rich, but no character, is of no use.

IT bellwether Infosys Technologies Ltd on May 11 said it had entered into a $ 3 million out-of- court settlement with its former employee Reka Maximovitch in connection with a sexual harassment lawsuit she had filed against the company and former Infosys director Phaneesh Murthy.

Infosys chairman and chief mentor N R Narayana Murthy told reporters that Infosys will contribute $ 1.5 million and the balance $ 1.5 million will be paid by insurance companies, under the company's directors' and officers' insurance cover.

Murthy said under the terms of the settlement, Infosys retains all rights to proceed with legal action against Phaneesh Murthy.

he company also came heavily on Phaneesh’s claim that he was an unwilling party to the settlement. Abiding by its decision to fight the case by its own, the company issued the following pointers, as pre-condition for Phaneesh Murthy to be a part of the settlement.

* He must agree to Infosys having the right to sue him for all his actions and lack of contribution.
* He would have no recourse to the insurance company, in case Infy sued him for his actions, including for breach of his fiduciary duties and indemnification.
* The company is bound by any term of confidentiality with respect to this settlement or the case.

Initially, Phaneesh refused to participate in the settlement on these terms. When Infosys confirmed to him that the company was anyway going ahead with the settlement alone, Phaneesh came back voluntarily and signed the settlement and agreed to every condition that Infosys had set. As the company retained its right to sue Phaneesh for his actions and lack of contributions, it went ahead with the settlement without any contribution from Phaneesh.

"If Phaneesh believed he was innocent and wanted to clear his name, he should have stayed in the lawsuit by himself and defended his position. We had given him this option. Instead of fighting to clear his name, he elected to settle," refuted the company counsel.

It does not matter dude. The IT industry has many criminals, a good percentage of them (both male and female) have illicit sexual relations, many of them booze, some commit atrocities on women, and some IT men in Bangalore even killed their wifes. The call center people are not different. The politicians who rule this country are greatest thugs.

Summary is that all sorts of people exist in all fields.

The subject discussed here is about IT, economy and outsourcing. This guy is a good thinker and executor, he transformed a loss making firm into a profitable one. Appreciate his knowledge, insight, and hardwork.

No wonder with people like you, India is going completely without morals. How would you feel if your daughter worked in a company and boss forced her to bed. Will you give award to her boss for doing good job to company?

So all those high priests here preaching morality and Phaneesh's character..pls do a sanity check if you have never ogled before 2. Never drooled at women 3. Dreamt about another woman than yours...If you have not done any of the above..then pls pelt stones at Phaneesh....one thing quite a few of us are good at...whether its the charpoy or corporate chair...reclining and passing comments...read what Phaneesh is saying about the industry and if you are part of the same then gain some insight..else if you are just living off someone else's money then just go browse porn...and 2 words for everyone's lecture on Indian morality...hypocrites...
