A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Wow, that's not bullshit in the slightest. Is it legal to do this there? I mean it's technically illegal here in America but employers can always come up with a bullshit excuse. Worse, if you live in San "at will" state, they can fire you with NO reason.
I don't know much about Indian laws and work culture, but many Indians I spoke to mentioned the work culture in their country is highly toxic. They prefer to work in American and Western companies instead of Indian-grown ones.
Last time I was in Bangalore there was an 80% completed, multi-story downtown building that 'didn't exist'.
It's not the laws that matter, it's who you know.
Watching Mike Okay videos, even things that aren't legal seem to be commonplace. The video where he visited a small jeans factory in a crawlspace above another shop that had ladder access, and where the off-dity employees slept on the floor underneath the workbenches where other workers were working, a small room with ceilings so low he had to stoop, that gave me the heebie jeebies
This is wow, I mean we are used to a lot, but wow.
They also write "100% Purely Bhartiya Brand" on their (really terrible) page. I am not indian, so I might be wrong, but this raises some questionmarks.
That is…what a way to inspire mass exodus in the remaining employees.
Here, be honest. Thank you. You’re fired. This feels very Trump-y.

lol ppl do work surveys? Jesus fuck, why?
Wouldn't be surprised to hear this shit was mandatory.
But they told me the survey was anonymous!
I love those.
I filled one out onetime and one of my teammates told us it's really anonymous.
So I bet him $100 dollars that I could prove it wasn't.
we filled them out and a couple days later I printed off his survey and taped it to his monitor.
he was pissed. I told him he could keep the $100 because the look on his face was worth it.
I had access to the drive where all the reports spit out. in the reports were the IPs of the submitters. I knew his IP and just grepped it. I'm sure leadership does the same thing.
