Wipro Technologies is at it yet again

December 1, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Wipro Technologies, one of the so called elite IT services companies of India, is at it yet again. During the slowdown of 2000-2001, Wipro first offered fresh graduates jobs and later of reneged on its offer leaving hundreds of aspiring young graduates high and dry.

A few days back with the economy showing signs of slowing down globally, Wipro announced that it would make its work week a 6-day week and a work day a 9 hr day to compensate for the falling value of the US Dollar against the Indian Rupee. Real assholes. When the economy was up and Wipro was raking in the moolah, they never thought of shortening the work week or descreasing the number of hours per day.

And now they are at it again. Recently Wipro handed out job offers to hundreds of new engineers for the post of Project Engineer. Their initial pay package was set between Rs 2.75 – 3.00 lacs per annum. After a few days Wipro sent the poor guys another letter stating that due to the current global economic crisis the company cannot recruit them as Project Engineers, rather they would have to join in the BPO/call center business. Also their salaries would be reduced to Rs 1.2 – Rs 1.6 lacs per annum. What the f@#!^&% hell!!!!!!

The new graduates were obviously miffed and they went looking for answers from the HR department of the company. Arrogant as most HRs are in India, Wipro’s HRs informed them that it was a take-it-or-leave-it offer. Again, what the…….!!!!!!!!!!

Ladies and gentlement, Wipro has proved itself to be a repetitive offender and from the way it deals with its prospective employees it shows what kind of value system the company imbibes. There’s a lot of talk about foreign companies exploiting Indian labour and why won’t they when our own home grown companies are engaging in it? Is there nothing that can be done against such companies?

DOWN WITH PAKISTAN, DOWN WITH THE INDIAN CONGRESS

DOWN WITH PAKISTAN, DOWN WITH THE INDIAN

GOVERNMENT

10 men and 62 hrs of mayhem in Mumbai, left 180 odd dead and many many more injured. Some of them could be incapacitated for life due to the gravity of their injuries. And what does the Indian government say? “We condemn the attack”. F#$% YOU!!! Goddamn you Dr Man Mohan Singh and goddamn the rest of the politicians who are running this good-for-nothing government.

For the last five years the only agenda of this government has been minority appeasement. Sorry, let me rephrase that. The only agenda for the last five years has been Muslim appeasement. And what was the result? A blood-bath in Mumbai the kind of which the world has never seen before. Elite hotels and restaurants were targeted and people were shot like rabid dogs in the street. In response the home minister and the Maharashtra CM resigned. BIG F#$!@*% DEAL!!! Of course they would so that they can shun off the responsibility of this massive failure.

Wake up people. Drag these ministers out of their homes and lynch them in full view of everybody. They do not deserve to live. They are the reason that 200 odd people lost their lives in the Mumbai massacres and left thousands affected gravely. Pakistan was, is and will be the breeding ground of Muslim fundamentalism and it needs to be dealt with right now. Muslim extremist groups like LeT and Al Qaida, and notorious gangsters like Dawood Ibrahim, find safe haven in this brutal, inhuman country that still practices the most barbaric of laws in its villages. By the day Pakistan’s audacity has increased buoyed by the support that it got from the US government in terms of financial assistance. It continued in its ways and committed large scale atrocities against mankind at large. And yet nobody does anything about it.

9/11, 7/11 and now the Mumbai massacre ought to pin these pigs once and for all. Let the whole world target them. Stop immigration from Pakistan to any developed country. Do not allow people from Pakistan to travel to other countries. Stop giving them aid. They are a disease in today’s world and it is the duty of each and every man to eradicate it from the surface of the earth. The world will be a better place without these practitioners of violence in the name of jihad.

These steps would probably hurt scores of innocent people, but so be it. When the terrorists attack they hurt scores of innocent people too. So why should be sympathize with the expat Pakistanis? It’s their misfortune that they were born in the most hated country in the world and its their responsibility to force the country to mend its ways. If they cannot do so they should be ready to face the consequences. Militancy is the cancer of the Muslim community and they need to get rid of this cancer before it destroys their very existence.
