IKEA to close its store at mumbai R city

IKEA to close its store at mumbai R city- Grapevine

Half eaten food items carelessly discarded every where, making the place utterly filthy. Not the first time, when Ikea opened in Hyderabad the crowd was as terrible, had kiddos jumping on sofas, bed sheets. 

Most of the crowd in Ikea and now Lulu Mall are the supposedly "well educated" working in MNCs, IT companies, but their behaviour is no better than that of the Dehatis , as filthy, undisciplined inspite of all the education and global exposure.

Also I don't get this craze for over crowding at malls on the opening day, this is not some expo or movie show that will be there for some time. IKEA or Lulu Mall are here to stay for long time, why the desperation, to the extent of parking cars on the flyover.

Visuals coming in from newly opened Lulu Mall are terrible. The crowding is bad enough, even worse is the total mess inside.

Welcome to IT Company Discussion's Private Community

Hello there people of grapevine.

From what I hear from a friend who is aware of the leadership discussions, MPL might be looking to lay off close to 50% of its workforce and shut down most of its other BU’s to consolidate by October. This would include folks even till the SVP levels. This might be one of the first pins to fall with the 28% GST rule kicking in by October. Dark days ahead for online RMG  industry in India

Massive layoffs coming up at MPL

companies like MPL should not exist in the first place. Why promote gambling?. not for any moral reasons,  if someone wants to gamble, let them go to a casino and do it. Instead, making it easier for some one to gamble at  any time/anywhere is unacceptable.

I have had slight back pain for the past two weeks, tired of sitting at the office and I want to buy a standing table for home.
I am looking for a manual table as my budget is less than 25K

Tired of sitting, need some reccos for standing table

Rumor mill is fired up since a week and all meetings with senior leadership this week have been removed from calendars without any notice! Also noticed that several leaders are WFH today. Guessing that is to avoid nervous conversations and to engage in private meetings over phone calls to decide which heads they are going to chop off. 
The 🔔are going off! Prepare yourselves!

Wayfair Likely Doing a Mass Layoff Tomorrow

TL;DR

Silicon Valley is dry and dying in February.

Almost 2cr people live in Bengaluru and outskirts, dependent on kaveri, borewell and tanker water.

Kaveri water - Stalin and Sidda are busy in cage fight and at end they will abuse NaMo for this also.

Lakes are exploited by corrupt politicians alongwith bbmp, bda and corrupt beaureaucrats.

Borewell ain't working as climate change ruined water level due to shift in monsoon rain pattern.

Tanker mafia again ready to loot.

North India is lucky to have 3 all year river like ganges, indus and brahmaputra. Due to Himalayas glaciers they are all weather rivers

Sadly south India has 3 major river like godavari, narmada and kaveri but all are monsoon river.

Water was already having 1000 tds and now that water is also unavailable.

I will never buy those shitty 1cr houses at Bangalore or even land due to this water crisis.

What do u think Bengaluru lovers or haters?

Bengaluru: Bengaluru, often hailed as "India's Silicon Valley," is grappling with a severe water shortage this year, much earlier than usual, as weak southwest monsoon rains have led to depleted groundwater levels and reduced water levels in the Cauvery River basin reservoirs that supply the city, as per a Reuters report. With roughly 14 million residents and a bustling hub of IT companies and startups, the city is facing unprecedented challenges in meeting its daily water needs., Bengaluru News, Times Now

There are multiple VPs and Directors leaving in parallel. Is this a mass exodus of senior leadership any indication of the state of the company?
