The WITCH companies bewitching the young minds

This article is not to degrade any of the software companies. WITCH stands for the famous IT companies in India. W for Wipro, I for Infosys, T for TCS, C for Cognizant and H for HCL. These companies are no doubt all very famous, providing huge scope for employment and performing great achievements. We also have many other companies like Accenture, IBM etc but these are the prime companies in India as of today’s fast growing economic scenario.

Our young minds, have grown in a very different environment. Generally all Indians are workaholic. It will not be wrong if anyone says that we are having this quality in our genes. But one more thing that is in our genes is the fact that we always look for alternates. We love to switch to whichever is the best.

Whenever we see a small hike in payroll, we immediately switch to the better option unmindful of the consequences. The companies are innocent and they look for only the talents of the people and reward the employees rather handsomely. But the pay scales differ from company to company.

So whenever the employees notice a higher pay offering, they switch as they are having the necessary qualifications for the jobs. This problem is well known. We see many companies not willing to employ over qualified professionals. This is common in the case of call centres and BPO’s.

So why is this tragic state? Is this not betraying of the company we work for? Should not the loyalty of the employees be questioned? This is indeed a grave situation. From the gaining of our independence, we have believed that independence is the license to live life the way we want.

This is not true. True independence is when we live life the way everyone likes us. It may sound a bit weird as we all are so much into our own definition for independence.

We can switch from one company to another but it is something that must be thought about. It is indeed serious. For example, a person who has lived all his life in Mumbai switching over to a company in Chennai will find it difficult to accommodate himself as every single aspect from climate to language.

So it is up to our youth to decide if they must be bewitched or must they think twice before switching.
