Corporate facts clearly shared by Manager Sudhir, system will take care message to be kept in mind! Thanks for sharing this video to wider audience.

[@Ajay_mine]

Sudhir alias Manager Mahesh, you are the mirror of 99% experienced IT professional. Hats off

[@SandyEC01]

Nice discussion and points by Sudhir IT life is tough for everyone but especially people above 40. 1) It is not easy to switch jobs after 15 years of experience 2) The opportunities are less , as companies want their existing employee to get promoted 3) The package will be less , due to demand & supply . 4) Mostly people in early 40 will have Children and aging parent to take care .. Need to take for Hospital visits .. 5) It is not easy to study new technologies due to Family commitments & other stress 6) Body doesn’t respond like early 20 at this age , 7) Due to Home loan EMI and family commitments can’t quit Job easily .. This younger generation in early 20 are better since most of them understand IT life after age of 40 is not easy .. so they start planning early

[@CertifiedRascals]

Awesome points

[@shivaramnadar9546]

Top management won't change. They have to please the Stock investors. TCS will forever bid cheap maintenance projects and pay peanuts to developers. If TCS rectified it then CTS will bid that project for a cheap price and pay peanuts. So IT service based companies are like thread mills. Earn and save as much as possible and exit before 50. Product based companies will have layoffs because of the high package. At the end of the day earn and escape and have an exit plan.

[@Veenasvibes]

"Well said. Leadership plays a significant role. Hopefully, more thoughtful leaders will rise to create the necessary change!"

[@marikanimurugesan2393]

In corporate life, one thing we should follow is follow the orders of the managers. If you are against your immediate manager then you will not grow. Politics, favouritism - all exists in a corporate life which you've to overcome otherthan the targets which are set by the company. You will never have free time to invest on some preparations for career shifting as you are already engaged and piled up with all the hectic works everyday and all the day you are running like anything and chasing the targets. As Mahesh you mentioned the only way by which you will understand this is when your body goes un well you will realise the effects of work pressure. With this existing system it's really bad for the society who have many dreams while the entering into a job as a fresher gets a bad boss and gets trapped in this loop and can't get out of this. This video really made me to think of myself how I have been in the past and present. But I have today learnt something from you that we should try to break this and come out of the shell. Thank you for your valuable information and thoughts

[@aarthiprasanna2499]

[@seenuthegreat]

[@umamaheshwaran1214]

[@merwynvincent]

[@AnandMadaka]

[@shanmugarajan7090]

Background music is Very disturbing & distracting

[@gopalakrishnan2925]

Yes, you are correct. After watching this video, I am also changing my work-life style.

[@vaishnavikrishnamachari448]

Wise revelations from a long time practioner. Sage advice for those starting out in the field and also a reality check for those of us who haven't realized the ways of working 🎉

[@baratkumar3214]

Each and every point is valid..this is the reality

[@rajaryan490]

You actually missed one more thing here, if you have person who works good, management will start pushing more work to him. Which will become a very hectic down the line 😕

[@CertifiedRascals]

True, the more you deliver, the more you get loaded.

[@RaviKumar-zv3ou]

Health is what the most needed one.. People should keep Health in Mind always..

[@SimbasPawsomeFamily]

Its true .. thanks for the open discussion

[@harineemosur6530]

The biggest problem is our education system and parenting builds a clerical attitude and low self-esteem which is played by top management. Your self-confidence and self-esteem is more important than skill set.Dont take crap from anyone and don’t let anyone demotivate you.

[@vlexical]

It is better to put strong disagree for everything when things go against. It is the only power employees have in the company.

[@jayshankardamodaran4966]

Thank you team you just spoke our heart out

[@thomasvibakar7713]

[@VamsiKrishna-ls5fk]

I have worked with you Sudhir. Proud of you.

[@85Venkatta]

Whatever you said is completely true but don’t think these issues are only pertaining to IT industry, even non IT it’s the exact same. Btw recently without notice laid off Electrical Engineer. But no worries got another job the very next day by God’s grace 😉😊✌🏽🙏🏽

[@CertifiedRascals]

Very true

[@catchbalain]

Worth content from people's manager 🎉🎉🎉 Kudos ❤❤

[@vasavi_balaji]

well explained, thank you

[@SoujisVista1]

Factu Factu....! Well said 🫡

[@mykarateofficial]

Excellent real time view.

[@valoriefalorie4223]

Have you ever fought for manual scavengers…there are so many horrible jobs and we should fight for all of them. During covid I had to go to office and work becoz my boss would lay off. I did it but cannot imagine doing it in my 50-60s. The point is IT jobs seem to have certain comfort which many cannot even dream. It’s important to respect and acknowledge those comforts too. This incident is not due to IT work but a horrible manager or boss. These kind of people exist in all fields. It is important to bring such bosses into public - file lawsuits against them. The whole field is not bad but only some people are bad that’s all I am trying to say.

[@merwynvincent]

Part 2 la pls background music lam venam!! Engaluku background music venum na oru Bluetooth speaker potu ketkurom!!!😣

[@suhanaaz8382]

Yup, family and health is everything

[@jayakumarC2006]

Please avoid background music please remove back ground music I am searching If I am opened any other video parallel

[@CertifiedRascals]

Sorry for the inconvenience, but it's needed for the overall vibe of the video, we kept it mild though

[@anandt2003]

​​@@CertifiedRascals as you can see in the comments section, viewers seem to have different option. Content is natural and no need to upsell with music like news channels IMHO.

[@rajaryan490]

Very Good Vedio, but please background was distracting and irritating.

[@vaidyt]

Bg music does not work… you should leave a lot of silence for this to be effective.. in some places it seems like it is working but then the music is overboard..

[@RBsI7]

Nice insights Sudhir sir

[@FireryFirery]

All it employees should form a community

[@valoriefalorie4223]

Please remove background music. It is annoying!

[@SatishKumar-ww1zn]

Kindly remove background music it’s unnecessary and annoying

[@tamilve]

Background music is annoying!

[@Subbu_s]

Agreed.. only After it hit my spinal cord i realised i was taking too much pressure

[@venkatselva1735]

Background music theva illathathu. Onnum theliva keakala, nakkheran channel search video paathan

[@sridhars9941]

Background music unnecessary

[@vigneshwar9256]

Honestly you can start training on how to handle corporate life many of us need it and are willing to pay for it

[@iprithvij]

Thayavuseidhu background sound delete pannunga...creating head ache

[@TECHNOLOGYTRENDS109]

Nakkeeran and certified rascals strange combo

[@divyadiv4486]

Background music is so annoying!! Unable to hear properly

[@saravanaas7070]

Oru nala videova background music potu athum more sounded a vachi ...who the fish editor....

[@shantivardhan01]

Well said Sir

[@CircadianHighway]

I connect so much with your content. Iam aspiring to practice screen writing ... can i work with you? If yes, how should i reach you?

[@CertifiedRascals]

Pls write to [e-mail]

[@GowthamThangamani]

Avoid background noise

[@fms-b1o]

Well explained Manager Mahesh Sir ( I mean Sudhir ). You. brought up very valid points. Henceforth there is no brands, all we (salaried employees) should start working for the backup. Credit card and House Loans are another way to trap the salaried employees. Always better (or must) to have "EXIT Plan" to our financial commitments of our life.

[@CertifiedRascals]

Thanks for the appreciation! Keepv watching

[@nagarajm5701]

What is your opinion on mnc it company are now preferring Vietnam because of low wage salary like we were in 1995 period

[@CertifiedRascals]

It will happen, cost effectiveness will always take precedence

[@manimaran181290]

Am handling 2 roles at the same time. They keep dumping everything on the people who is working. They also need people who doesnt work simply because they will listen and do whatever they want. On positive side what i am seeing is that am having good learning by handling multiple roles. I know anytime they can fire me. But this learning will help us to survive outside.

[@CertifiedRascals]

That's the reality of corporate life, I feel you, the learning will be useful though.

[@mervynnesadurai6635]

The background music is irritating.

[@bharathsriraman9427]

Real thing about the world an average earning member of a house.

[@mozhistmk]

Think of person, who is the bread earner of the family, 4 dependent on him.

[@RaviKumar-zv3ou]

They always kept the pressure in back of our mind that you can be fired anytime..

[@VamsiKrishna-ls5fk]

Reality

[@vinothm8726]

Panam sambarichutu enna venumnalum pesalam

[@CertifiedRascals]

Oh wow

[@cf5386]

Sick music

[@CS-JAGATHESHK]

1 st command

[@smva.n]

Horrible background music

[@udayasingh905]

Stupid background music. Too annoying

[@m4v3ryck]

Stupid thought process. I am an individual contributor in an MNC. if I feel pressurized, I raise it to my boss. Work-life balance is not the managers' or the organizations' responsibility. It is up to the individuals to take care of their work-life balance. and nobody forces people to work late regularly. if they don't waste their time during the day, they don't have to sit late nights. some days when there is a deadline, yes everybody works late. that is an anomaly. if you're sitting late regularly, take lessons on scheduling. If an individual fears for their position or fears the manager's wrath, it is in their heads. raising you as a weak individual is not the manager's mistake. grow a pair and stop blaming others for your inadequacies. if you really are looking for someone else to blame, blame your parents. if you really feel that IT is not for you, go find some other job that coddles you.

[@CertifiedRascals]

Thanks for writing what we told in the interview, it shows you heard it so well . Thank you so much 🙂bro

[@vinothm8726]

Olaradinga... nalu kaithataluku...

[@CertifiedRascals]

Ha ha some one got hurt

[@sathishkumar-hm1ww]

Good joke.. HR found...

[@HariHaran-fs8ti]

This is reality

[@singu31]

Bgm music is totally unwanted and ruins the watching experience. Pls remove it next time 🙏🙏
