The financial meltdown has stripped many people of their jobs, closed down companies and made everybody insecure. Not a nice thing to happen, one would say. But even in this darkness, there seems to be a ray of hope — a few people actually feel that recession is a positive thing.
Is it true? Says Sunil Kumar, CEO, Symbiotic Infotech Pvt Ltd.,
“Yes, recession has been a boon in disguise. After recessionary trends in the economy, we have not been losing any employees — which in turn is helping us in our efforts to complete projects and plan new business development programmes on time. This is boom time for our industry. People have started using more of our services — alerts like astrology, jokes, devotional etc. The usage on all of the services has only increased during this time.”
Employees don’t want to lose their jobs and are giving their best to tide over the tough situation. This has become a tool to bring out the strength and weaknesses of employee(s) — which has in turn, directly or indirectly left the employees with personal growth.
