Completing 10 Years in One company....
I was thinking about my overall stay in Honeywell. I am about
to complete 10 years in this organization. However, it does not excite me.
In todays world where people change companies like dresses, staying in a company for a decade does have some meaning.
It has got two meanings
1. You have no option so you stick :)
2. You are happy with the work and the perks so you stay with the company..
So whats the reason I am hanging around here.
Money and time that I get to give to my family.. Apart from that no technical challenging work.
After working with three great companies I have lost my hope that I can get some
challenging work. Rather now I have understood that I should make the work more challenging.
More or less Indian IT industry will have the same scenario apart from good product development biggies like
Microsoft , Google or facebook.
However, good part is you get good money which is also important.
Employment generation is also important which Indian software companies do for our newly graduated engineers.That is also major contribution to the society.
If I had enough of money to retire I would have done it by now... However I need money to sustain
and hence I need to work and work for another 20 years.
Where do I want to see myself after 20 years.
I will not say I want to be a CEO of this company... Probably that's not my cup of tea and I am not interested.
However, I should be making some progress along the path.
Life without progress is life wasted...
One thing that I have learned is if we don't plan for our
success then we are planning for our failures.
Things may not go the way we plan however, if we don't plan then nothing will happen.
We need to have some plan and work on it continuously.
Of all the three companies that I worked for Persistent, IBM and Honeywell. I think Persistent was the one where I got good technically challenging work.
Persistent rocks when it comes to technical innovation and challenging work.
IBM is more process oriented in India. IBM in US and Europe is more innovative and IBM GBS is more of service oriented. Honeywell is mix of both. However, technical excellence is with Persistent Systems.
I still remember those long hours that I put in Persistent.
That work led my foundation in software industry.
So I am ready for another twenty years in Software industry.
