You have no idea about the exploitation in the IT sector. Most(in fact ALL) of India's competetivness will vaporize if the employees are paid for the actual number of hours (even at 20% reduced salary). How many employees of TCS, WIPRO and SATYAM are happy. Most endure the exploitation to get themselves a foothold in the US. As far as growth goes, check how many experienced employees left TCS (15 - 25 yrs) because they were stagnant. Those who moved forward were those who could toe the management line and continue the policies that add profits but exploit employees. You are so out in the dark!
