Why are there so many emails sent? How many actually open and read company-wide emails?

Emails! Emails! Emails

The tech environmentalist!

No trees were harmed in the production of this email; however thousands of electrons were horribly inconvenienced! This message was sent with 100% recycled electrons!

What's your signature?

I will start:
Your mail storage is 600 mb something. If you cross it, you would not be able to send mail from your mail id and also won't receive mail often!😂

No matter what emergency it is!🤣

One of them is NASA sending a Software Update 12 Billion miles away to Voyager 2

NASA just sent a critical software update to Voyager 2 and it took almost 18 hours to complete the upgrade.

Never sent a risky mail from phone, always bigger screens!

we were playing truth or dare and my friend challenged me that she could get any job interview with a cold email/dm. 

I usually receive hearback from 1/50 job postings I apply to, so didn't believe her at all.

now she made a GPT to write cold emails and get job interviews.

I really wanna use it, but she is flexing so hard now, my ego tells me not to use it.

help me out, do cold emails and all really work?

This question explores how small B2B service companies, like software development and digital marketing firms, attract clients from international regions such as the USA, Europe, Gulf countries, and Australia.

How do small B2B service companies acquire global clients?

After completing my BTech. I joined TCS for 2LPA. 
My RMG(read: The most hated folks at TCS) came up with the stupidest project and forced me to join it. She brutally harassed me for 3 days straight to take that project and I kept denying. I cleared interviews for two projects and then she still didn't let me take those projects.

She then had the audacity to stop project allocation for me leaving me on bench.

Now here is the real kicker... She starts sending me threatening email. Like your pay will be stopped indefinitely if I don't report to the project that belongs in 1989(joke). It was literally based on some archaic mainframe related tech and it was just some support job.
 
Thankfully my father was very supportive and he told me to start my own business. He gave me 9L to start something. After 6 years of gruelling hardwork and ups and downs now, I run my own IT services company. I have 100+ people on my payroll and we did 17% in EBITDA last year. NP was 6%. 

I made this post because I read this news article today. I will tell you that the audacity of TCS to say all of this is mindboggling. DO NOT JOIN TCS AT ALL. It is a place where careers go to die.

My journey from TCS to running my own IT company with 20Cr annual turnover.

Do founders even reply to cold emails . Have emailed about 30 of them but hardly one o two reverts. Are they too busy or cold emails are out of trend? Reaching out to create openings but of no avail yet. On LinkedIn these founders add lines like  my DMs are open or reach at this email address, and even after emails no response.

I wonder why !!!

hooked up with someone from my previous job, now she is my girlfriend and we are going strong 5 years.

what is your best mistake in office?

Those who have started using this app have realised that you dont have an option to connect with professionals on a personal chat, this might prove to be a hindering factor in the growth of this platform. In today's world where all message and social media applications allow users to cold text the other person I feel that this option should be available on grapevine as well. After all, we are just one cold text away from a new funding or maybe a marvellous job offer. So guys do your best and help us get this message across to the developers.
Up vote and comment as much as you can.

#Offtopic - Gmail storage is full! How to overcome?

Was selected in this year's one of top 3 IIM's Executive MBA. Ended up joining another college instead, one of the reasons behind the gratefulness is the immaturity of the IIM Executive MBA batch.

The batch created a WhatsApp group, of 400+ people. With so many folks in the group, there will be conflict in opinions and hence disagreements. But out here, it sounds like a bloodbath. There's fights everyday, daily spamming of unnecessary messages, and language that can make any mature professional bow their head in shame.

The WhatsApp community consists of ~60 sub groups (based on sub batches and sections, interests, cities, centres within cities, etc). The discussions in the groups always starts out quite positively, but often ends with meaningful conversations turning into spam, and eventually someone offending someone, for good or bad measure. What follows the is an entirely different ball game of bitching in yet another WhatsApp group, created purely for banter, called "Bakchodi" (duh).

There once was a full-blown 500+ messages spam discussion on the pros and cons of the student email domain - .edu vs ac.in. Another time, similar amount of spam was done to collectively decide which tagline to use in LinkedIn for the batch (permutation and combination of IIM-X, batch number, year, etc). Mind you, this was before the course started.

In another instance - during the week long orientation, the seniors apparently behaved very badly with the current batch, and (wrongfully) removed one person from the collective networking group because they got offended.

End of the day, I was extremely disappointed by the behavior of the people. While I do agree that the ones responsible for the behavior is a minority, I expected more maturity from folks who are working professionals with a minimum of 3+ YoE. I can only hope that the ones who are taking the course seriously do not have an overall bad experience because of the bad apples.

Grateful to have NOT joined IIM's Executive MBA

I use Outlook (fine judge!), I got my username with it. Gmail is an A$$ when it comes to getting your own name mail

Anyhow, basic mails are ending up in spam

I use that ID to pitch my case for potential job roles.
It maybe ending all in spam

Probably the problem was never me
