TIL Bharti (owner of airtel) is also in FMCG. 

Del Monte Foods Private Limited is a 50:50 joint venture between Bharti Enterprises and Del Monte Pacific Limited

2010 - Bharti unveils FieldFresh in joint venture with Del Monte

2021 - FieldsFresh Foods  renames itself ‘Del Monte Foods Private Limited’

This revenue diversification and risk mitigation strategy of Airtel makes even more sense in 2023 after how Jio, backed by Reliance's financial strength, came from nothing in 2016, exercised the ‘Power of Free’ market penetration strategy, and basically captured the telecom market.

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

I know Grapevine is full of young and ambitious people that either planning to get into Product or are already working as a PM. I don’t aim to discourage any of you. Moreover, if you need tips to break into Product I would be happy to help you.

I personally feel that knowing what you are doing is going to doom is better than normalizing it.

So I will convey my experience in simple words, how I hated every single day of it, why did I still stick around for 4 years, why product decisions are random political bullshit, why you should not let anything that happens get under your skin and affect your morale. Finally, few words for sociopathic Head of Products.

Lesson #1: Go through all stages of grief at once. Accept that product culture is broken and accept that it will not get better. Finally, you can’t fix it or improve it.

Lesson #2: Ratings are political bullshit. 
I can tell you the years I was rated worse I was probably working harder and better at my job. It just depends on the results you get in the last month before ratings and whether your DOP is vocal for you.

Lesson #3: Last piece of advice: do not let your Product years lower your self esteem or sense of self worth.

Also, some words for sociopathic Head of Products. F’ you.

You Must Get Out - My Experience of 4 Years In Product

Heavily second this. I’m a tech focus generalist who stumbled upon PMing after multiple startup exits. Absolutely bonkers role with no role definition, metric ownership, impact driving. Anyone who disagrees, is lying to themselves. What I can define PM in Indian / many valley based companies with Indian founders -> glorified bhains charane wala.

I'm saying this because Microsoft has posted more than 240 software engineering jobs in India in just the last month, bringing the total to 547 software engineering jobs in India alone. However, despite this large number of job postings, I haven't seen a single new employee announcement on LinkedIn for any of these positions.

Does nobody want to join Microsoft, or what?

Is Microsoft posting fake jobs in India

This is reality in India too

You don't need to spoil kids with the best possible education, day care and shit they don't even need. 
  
 Today's parents are too much. Our generation didn't even have half the stuff that today's kids do, we still did alright.  
  
 Homeschooling is a great and realistic option that most people don't even consider. They just want to justify breaking their backs without even asking their own family if they need all that extra money and privileges.

As a student, work hard to fulfil 3 goals

How accurate is this story of every NRI software engineer in the US?

A friend got caught for a drunk and drive situation few days ago in Bangalore around Bellandur area. The officer there sensed that he wasn't a Kannadiga and refused to encourage any off table affairs and registered the case against him and vehicle was seized.

Around the same time, I also got caught but spoke in Kannada with the police officer. I could manage to get out of the situation without any legal troubles.

I accompanied my friend to the T. P. Station to get the vehicle back. Strangely almost everyone whose vehicles were impounded, were
*Wait for it*
Not Kannadigas.

I felt strange and checking if anyone else got in similar situations and knowing and not knowing kannada had different outcomes.

Comment on.

I came across a reel on Youtube and then cross checked it. Some facts are just mind blowing.There is a temple in Maharashtra known as 'Kailasa Temple'.

1. It was carved out from the top. Just imagine a 3 floor building with elaborate carvings carved out of rock from the top with over 100's of stone images, pillars and other craft.

2. They removed over 2M tons of rock in the process.

3. It took them more than 135 years to finish this job. Just imagine 4,5 generations sticking to the same plan with no blueprint without any technology and with just hammer and chisel, not from the front or bottom but from the top.

It is the most incredible piece of engineering that human beings have done on this Planet.

India is truly a land of wonder but we are the worst marketers.

Planning to start nice yaar movement just tried at my workplace it seemed to be big hit everyone enjoyed 
Thoughts if we can start same here 

PS :: Just for fun expecting no triggers for this post

Can be a list too. But Only unmarried men

Unmarried men, what is that you seek in your to-be spouse?

A rudimentary understanding of system design and database scaling. Preferably from fintech background. AWS certification and Rust experience is a plus.

Alert: a rant post

Today I saw my payslip after a long time and WTH! I don't know what they'll take once bonus comes in. Paying this much for no water, bad air, corrupt babus and all those douche things.

As much as patriotic I am, this is just insane. On top of this add all the GST and sheet ton of other indirect taxes.

Living in India and paying like Europe. Wow!

Duck the government

Earning around 50 lpa at 24 is already a great feat. Still if u want to look at the dark side, nobody can help. This rant is more common than diabetes. Yet people will stress about same thing and rant to destress. Endless cycle. Either do something about it or bring some new perspective. P.S. I am in alignment with ur rant but I’ve made peace with the state of affairs as I am not looking to move out of India and I cannot strong arm govt. individually to change this.
