Not only Indian companies , but MNCs( Accenture,IBM....) also are the same. After al any compnay operating out of INDIA will be same. As the guru mantra is same " buttering"," kam chor" " hi-fi ness show offs( mainly by girls) and " yes yes attitude" IF the top management is clear and agile , everything is in place. If they are corrupt , encourage chamchas, things will always be worse.
On the other hand , all gradudates entering IT , do so for salaries , putting up false experience. US is full of medicore performers , from all 3rd grade colleges in INDIA . IF someone is gradutaing in Mechanical or civil, why run after IT and then blame. From morning till evening IT people only talk fo plots, houses , stocks.
Many peoplewho could not think of getting a decent job, are today enjoying just because of IT.

You are right to the extent that
1) Things are happening on the same line internationally, 2) Employees in IT change only for money, even if they have good profiles in existing firms 3) Companies can do very little to retain them, as paying them higher and higher will make them unprofitable
Companies should discourage talent - poaching, as a remedy.

i agree with u...the yes-man attitude, most mnc's operating at the offshore too does not make any difference as the managers at the top involved in key decision making are localite and favors employees within the local region where the company is situated. Regional bias is the real winner.outstation candidate suffers and is ultimately kicked off irrespective of their performance and contribution.

I disagree. what did the Indian industry have to offer before MNCs and IT came into the picture. What is the harm if people aer making money, otherwise they would be all criminals. Lets accept the fact that yes attitude, kaalm chori was much more prevelant during the period prior to 1990. Indian IT is the best. Way to go and let mediocre eople earn thier daily bread.

My God! You are a mess ARu K! Cool it Pal. So much frustration is not good .. for yourself. What you say may be true. But reality is that the world is not a fair place. It indeed is a DOG EAT DOG world and you'll find pretences of every kind, every where!
You are a intelligent guy from a Hi fi college, but still stuck in off shore infy, while a fake made it big in the US! So what do you do?
Simple. Log ur self out of the rat race. Figure out what your passion in life is and what you want to as a career and try to do it better than most. A career is a long, long race. Someone who seems to be rocketing now will appear to be limping in a few years. So don't ever get frustrated looking at others.
What really matters is are you doing what pleases you! A friend of mine left an IT job and started a company who takes people on bike rides through out india. Think about it!
