Onto,
I agree with you. We Indians are universally hated in every sphere...Even Thai's hate us and never allow us in their bars. Filipinos hate us, Africans hate us, Chinese, Koreans....You name it, we are universally hated. There must be some reason behind it.
..The way Indian society is ...Feeling of hierarchical superiority, groupism is ingrained in our DNA..Worse, we hate each other thanks to Caste...India is very old, done and dusted, the best days are long over...Its a nation in decline...The good guys are long gone...
Whom are we kidding here...We are leeching of off American jobs working for low wages not because we are talented or something or adding value to America....As another member noted..There is no shortage of IT workers in America but they want us as we work for low wage.
Also, I have noticed, they promote us much faster to higher management position than a fellow American, ir-respective of the talent we have...I couldn't understand it before...now its much clearer.
Do not buy the lame stream BS that Indians are all so great in IT and changing the world etc..all BS, fake stories to get more kids join some IT college and produce more slaves for corporations.
Infosys, Wipro, TCS are the worst IT companies in India, hated by Indians too...Its a slave factory, they get contract on dirt cheap prices from US and then they develop the project in a offshore facility in India by making people work for like 16 hours a day.
We are very opportunistic, cunning, dishonest in every field - That's why many Indian IT companies have bad reputation...and many guys who work once with Indian company will always come out with a bitter experience....
Also, this groupism is very strong...so strong that even we do not mingle with people from other states and languages in India itself...like a guy from California will not mingle with a guy from new york state etc...You have to be from the same caste, religion, state, mother tongue to be in a group.
-----------------
Most Indians will get defensive when pointed out on their mistake, shortcomings..The problem is us not them...
From Night life to Corporate IT life....aka from a Thai Bar Girl to a highly educated American IT guy..Why is that every person in all professions have something bad to say about Indians? Why...its so shameful.....It may be called racism if one group says so...however...I hear this from everyone from IT guys in America to Pattaya girls in Thailand to Filipina bar girls in Angeles city to expats from UK to regular dating girls in okcupid ...common now...Its so embarrassing..
Just ask a Thai bar girl on Indians and you will hear her saying we share beer, girls and are cheap, similarly in IT...backstabbing, dishonest, untrustworthy, groupism etc...Why can't we Indians look INWARD and accept our mistakes and evolve...The rest of the world is not stupid.
Needless to say, not everyone in India are like that but its the average of it..all the good and bad vibes combined and you get generally a bad feeling about us.
Onto...You did the right thing by moving away...You saved yourself from devolving ....You have nothing to learn from us other hurting yourself mentally....
I feel so ashamed, some of the stuff we do now is not even classified as Human Emotions anymore....
