I am sharing a real stuff here which happened to my ex colleague in Polaris Bangalore.
Like anyone else, he was very happy when he got an offer from Polaris 4 months back. He was told that the position would be permanent and in fact, he was hired to work for one of their client Thomson Reuters.But even before he joined Polaris, that particular account of Thomson Reuters has ditched and moved out of Polaris labs and gone to some other vendor.
Atleast the HR guys in Polaris labs should have kept my friend informed on this, so that he could have looked at elsewhere as the skillset for which he was hired for, was a rare skill and demands were less.They kept mum and this guy got onboarded and was on bench for 90 days. Start from the beginning he has pestered his managers, HR, Senior managers for project but in vain. Infact in one point of time, he got frustrated and coz of that he has shown interest in getting cross trained in some other skill. But even that option was ruled out by the HR guys.He was told that some project is in pipeline and will soon get allocated.Suddenly on one fine day, the HR has called this guy to her desk and told that he should submit his resignation immediately and leave the organization in 2 days.
My friend was shell shocked as he has a family of 4 dependants and he is the breadwinner for the whole family. Thinking about his commitments he had cried in front of the HR, but no use. That HR lady has snatched his Employee ID card and has deactivated the access. He was asked to come to office on subsequent 2 days and asked to sit in reception till 5 pm and leave.This guy has spoken to his reporting managers, but they have alleged that he has turned down onsite opportunities and relocations for which he was never approached. Due to this mental trauma, that guy has attempted for suicide and was saved by his roomies.
This sort of things should not happen to anyone of us. That is my intention to let everyone know about this unprofessional, unethical organization Polaris labs.
Guys, please think 100 times before you accept an offer from them.If they do not want you for any business reason, they will blame you and kick you out for no mistake of yours. BEWARE !!
