Part #1

Okay he is a software engineer. Now it’s the peak time here for software engineers. He got a job like all other engineering graduates. It’s a huge company, multinational, with clients in the fortune 500, they said..

This is the story of a desperate software engineer.

His training started with 40 others at the training place. The company has outsourced the training centre to another place, away from the work place the employees of the company enjoy. It all started fine. It was the professionalism that he liked the most. The dress code the work time, the training, all were up to the standards, what anyone can expect from an MNC. The perks and the salary they offered were quite attractive.

The first month went unnoticed, full of work and promises. He quite liked it all. The coworkers or the colleagues were friendly. It was heaven. It was all he ever wanted. It was all he dreamed of. A good way to start his career, he thought.

The time told another story.

The second month was up and running. The time was moving at a fast pace. He was counting the days the training will be completed ( 3 month training) and officially he’ll be start working. That’s when the rumor started spreading, ‘ the salary is increased by 40 %’. Okay that was cool, that was what he expected from a MNC like this.

But wait, it was just a rumor. Okay he said to himself, the old salary is not that bad after all. This was when he got the opportunity to get trained in a new technology. Gracefully happily he accepted the offer, after all it’s a big company, it’ll take care of it’s employees career prospective, it will give them the opportunity to grow, to learn, to flourish, that’s what he thought.
