The fact of the matter...
by Proud Indian on May 01, 2008 02:52 PM   Permalink

The fact of the matter is that large companies are just sweat shops ( for over 90%) of thier employees. The work is doen by large teams and work is done in tasks. To draw a parallel, each person has to only turn a nut & bolt, and when enough nuts and bolts have been turned, you get an engine. Only once in a blue moon does a new blue moon will a new engine get designed. So the nett result is that 99% of the ppl will be doing boring repetetive jobs (turning nuts& bolts) and only 1% get exciting jobs (design engines) and there will be 0.0001% who get the really good jobs of managing the ppl do the repetetive jobs or the exciting jobs - and that is top managment. Now if you are a normal grad with normal brain power and parents who dont own a company you have 99% chance of getting repetetive jobs, and 1% of chance of getting an exciting job and 0.0001% chance of making it into top managment with all your hair black.

The way to deal with this to get to look at job drudgery as a necessary evil and not get drowned in it. Accept that at MNC's and other large cos, your chance of working hard and getting into top managment is practically zero. The way to make it to the top is to join a small company (less than 500 ppl) which is growing fast.
This applies to all industries like IT, BPO, Retail, Avation, telecom and manafacturing.
