So far in my Blogs I never mentioned anything about my Organization. I always felt that i shall not use this space to promote my firm. Since I also blog in my company which is an Intranet one. But today I feel I have to pen down about my organization which is my First tutor in this Corporate world.
The latest turn around of events made me realise how deep I am attached my firm. Today at a time when I fear most of my colleageus/ friends are ashamed to put on their Tags in MMTS,Autos,Buses just to avoid to be viewed skeptically by a passerby.
Yes I AM PROUD to be a SATYAMITE. I work with Satyam Computer Services Ltd.
I am not ashamed to be apart of Satyam. Whatever has happened in the past 1 week shall not bother me. When I try to weigh down what I got from my firm to the last week’s events the latter doesn’t bother me.
I joined Satyam in 2006. This was my first tryst with a Corporate Company. Through out the past 28 months I have been growing with the company. The opportunities that my firm bestowed upon me remain unmatched.
Today morning ,11th January 2009 Hyderabad Edition of The Hindu, made me realize this. I was woken up by my Mom to show the Newspaper where in Mr. Ramalinga Raju (Founder of Satyam) was being shielded by his brother (incidentally my Firm’s Managing Director) from to Police Custody.
My memories went back to the instant when I first saw him in one of my campus in the parking lot getting out of his BMW car , and here was he being moved in a rakshak vehicle. I just could not control myself. I was Broken.
I may be amateurish to comment on what if he did was right or wrong, for me he truly WAS, IS, SHALL BE an Inspiration . To dream Big , at a time (1987) he foresaw a untapped market that is going to rule in 2000.

It was due to his thought, that today 53000+Associates got a respect in the society with their families taking pride to be a part of this Satyam Family.
My MOM in particular reminds me onthing “Baabu, Whatever he did doesn’t bother to me as he gave you an Opportunity to prove urselves without any help. We as a family shall pray for his well being”. I observe that she MEANT IT.
All through out the week we were getting Solidarity Calls from our loved ones to enquire the status quo, but that doesn’t deter me from admiring my company.
You may have frenz or well wishers who pray for your well being when you attain success but there would be only TRUE ones when u r faced with difficult times. Thank you everyone for this wise gesture of urs to stay with me during my tough times.
Like you have stood beside me during my tough times, I shall stay with my Satyam in its tough times.
I am and shall be a TRUE Satyamite in letter and spirit and be there on its side during these times. The Logo and the brand brings in a Gusto in me to excel myself and challenge myself.
When the going gets tough, the tough gets going.
@Vamshi,
ReplyDeleteI agree with you - when the going gets tough, the meek run away and the TOUGH GET GOING.
this is the time to prove our moral fabric - and by God, we will not be found wanting!!
I completely agree with you vamsi...people who blame Raju must remember that Hyderabad is one of the Metros because people like him strived hard to get it going....probably he might be on a high ambition...that might have led to him unfortunatley getting into trouble....but he has always been a inspiration for me tooo.....
ReplyDeleteWhen I talk about Satyam, i get reminded of my desire, my wanting to join this company, when i used to pass by the begumpet city center office in city buses or on my bike, i've always wanted to be a part of Satyam. That dream came true....I would never led down my company...lets stand together....
