Sometimes I feel Zomato is way better than swiggy, culture wise 
 This is what I perceive being an outsider

My current company is not allowing the Karnataka/ Bangalore guys to cast their vote tomorrow. Is it the same with you? They wanted to vote and come to office...

Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah urged all residents to speak only Kannada, emphasising the importance of protecting the language, land, and water.

CM Siddaramaiah says ‘people living in Karnataka should learn Kannada’

Chief minister fueling the Kannada fire

Just got notified by the manager of the society that borewells are not able to extract water like before and that water tankers are facing it difficult to arrange as most of their go-to reservoirs have started to dry up.

Anyone else here facing water shortage issues this week?

Roads, Metro, Taxi Drivers arrogance, Corruption....Naah
Speak Kannada first.
I'll be as blunt as possible.
"Supporting this behaviour will make life hell for non-Kannadigas in Karnataka and Kannadigas out of Karnataka." 
This CM has done nothing but spread hatred and divide Karnataka as much as possible.

I have offer from one of the company from bangalore and I was planning to move to bangalore next month. But I am worried about this new reservation law. This law can create divide and can even lead to violence amongst locals and people from other states.

Move to bangalore or not due to situation created by state government

I feel it's unreasonable to require MNCs to disclose the number of their employees who are Kannadigas and to prioritize Kannadigas for employment. Such policies seem to be attempting to introduce reservation concepts into sectors like IT, which have traditionally operated on merit-based principles. Implementing such policies may breed resentment against the state and its communities.

These measures could also raise doubts among investors about the viability of investing in a state with such regulations. Growing up, Bangalore was renowned for its welcoming people, pleasant weather, and thriving IT sector. However, with increasing instances of hooliganism and policies like these, Bangalore risks losing its appeal, leaving only its pleasant weather.

As for my own background, my father is Kannadiga and my mother is Tamilian. Should my company consider me a Kannadiga?

Karnataka to ask companies to display number of kannadigas. A joke???

Everyone knows the org behind this, faces are captured on cameras but still these culprits are roaming free. That’s how democracy works!

Hooliganism

This happened in Mumbai too but 10-15 years back. All new people registered their vote in Mumbai and killed this regional thinking. 
  
 All people who want bangalore to succeed. Register in bangalore and vote for right candidate. 
  
 Not a party which doles out cash for vote.

"The extent of water surface in Bengaluru during 1973 was 2,324 hectares. Over the last 50 years, due to reckless concretization, the water surface has shrunk considerably. Of the remaining water bodies, 98% of lakes are encroached upon and 90% of them are fed with untreated sewage or industrial effluents. Naturally, this has impacted the recharge of the groundwater table as well," IISc's Prof TV Ramachandra had told TOI.

Bengaluru's severe water crisis and traffic congestion are prompting tech giants to consider relocating from the $245 billion IT hub. The city's civic challenges may impact India's IT industry landscape, compelling companies to explore emerging cities.

India looks for new Bengalurus as its Silicon Valley goes downhill

If they buiild more "lake-view" apartments, there will be no more lakes left, not that there are many left.

We all have heard about the toxic culture of Edtech. Unacademy is now in the top spot when it comes to companies with toxic culture. Any company cannot be more cruel than this:

1. Abusive language by leaders - COO, CBOs, SVP, VP and other leaders treat employees as slaves. They themselves have made huge lossess and are burning investors money but when any employee voice out their opinion/asks for leaves, the leaders abuse employees badly even in front of other stakeholders.

2. Forceful long working hours -
Even if you complete your work in 8-9 hours, you are forced to sit for 11-12 hours just to show the founders.
People hardly work after certain hours but they just have to sit and waste their time. This is tiring and there is no work life balance. No time to spend with family. I hardly get chance to spen time with child. 

3. Late night reviews -
So the company has started this new way of conducting monthly reviews late in the night. People are asked to sit till 2-3 AM for reviews. And this review is nothing but a setup where COO abuses the employees.

4. Forced paycuts -
We have seen a forced paycut for the leaders (VP, SVP, Directors etc). 'No appraisal' was still somehow digestable but how can a company justify the degrowth in the earnings of their employees. Company has money to sponsor TVF web series (Sandeep Bhaiya), invite Standup comedians (Biswa and Prashasti), distribute pizzas to all the employees but when someone voices out for paycuts, they don't have money. 

5. No Flexibility In Working
The company witnessed its highest growth and revenue when 100% of the employees were working from home but now the founders think that people do not work from home so they have called everyone to work from office for 6 days a week. If someone asks for a work from home, the leaders denies or ask to apply leave to work from home.
Be it rains, election, etc - we are asked to work from office. Even during the day of election in Karnataka we were called in the office.

Unacademy is synonymous to Toxicity

Business Analyst

When I listen to his talk on shows & rallies, he speaks so magnificently. I believe that he should rise & take control of the entire BJP Southern politics & after some time take a key position in our country's politics. I wish him to be our PM in future. His entire 30-minute podcast contains more depth & knowledge than entire opposition. ♥️ 

Guys pls ensure that he comes to power!! 🫡🙏
