Hi Everyone,
What is
more upsetting now a days is the way the CTVA + Mara – ISON team is working
hand in glove to ensure they do not leave any stone unturned in
harassing/torturing their existing staff and also the past employees. Looks
they are working on the emotional angle now following the leads from CIA movies
etc
Let me tell
you how..
1.
First
most of the staff who left or stuck with CTVA were not paid atleast Quarter of
the yearly salary ( 3-4 months ).
2.
Then
their taxes , PF are not yet deposited, while few lucky ones made it into the
tax/PF system ( 0.1%).
3.
Now
most of them are coming of in their new jobs, healing their wounds, while
keeping the fight on with the system, CTVA MAFIA and their supporters in
recovering the dues.
So where is
the harassment coming into play … here it comes…
1.
Recently
over the last 2-3 weeks CTVA+MARA-ISON jointly is making frantic efforts to
call all the ex-employees and luring them with a 25% minimal raise.
2.
That
is not all, the key members are sent with the offer letter , with a blank
number , giving a range and asking them to come back and participate in the
revival of CTVA.
3.
The
company and their loyal guards , are even going to extent of offering jobs
OUTSIDE INDIA for the employees located in INDIA, and incentivizing them to
take it up ASAP.
4.
While
in all the above context, there is NO MENTION , still of the outstanding
historical payments .. isn’t that more than torture ..or shall I quote an Hindi
saying “Jaley pey Namak ..” translating it to” Salt on wounds…. “
So why so
much meherbaani ( benevolence …) been thrown up on the ex-staffers, few insider
data again…
1. CTVA has lost good amount of customer base, or shall I say customers are
not paying / renewing the contracts for MS, Support etc.
2. Recent lost accounts are NAWRAS ( Oman ), ASIACELL ( IRAQ), UMOBILE (
Malaysia ), VIVA (BAHRAIN), VIDEOTRON ( Canada), ELION ( Europe), NEXTEL (
USA), T-MOBILE ( GERMANY) .. all in the last few months. Few of the above
accounts were as old as the company itself.
3. This makes the new investors / buyers ( I really doubt if any money was
paid , except bailing out the founders / loyalists of their personal debts ) a
bit wary on long term play.
4. Considering Mara-ISON is purely a Services firm, now venturing into
Product, they have all the right to protect their interests ( no issue in them
thinking the way they are ).
5. Also there is a big threat for other customers to follow the same exit
strategy, ie do not ask anything more from CTVA, freeze the system as is, and
wait for alternative…
6. In some cases, CTVA customers have already asked the competitors to Manage
the CTVA system and eventually replace it with their system which the new Mgmt
would never want to…
So its makes all sense for the CTVA to push , pull, threat
and do all its necessary to get the old timers even atleast for next 6 months ,
so they get out of mess and then leave the employees back into “DARKNESS”…
DEAR FELLOW COLLEAGUES/EX-STAFF, BE CAUTIOUS , BE MATURE
AND DO NOT FALL INTO THE TRAP.. REST I LEAVE IT TO INDIVIDUALS TO DECIDE THEIR
FUTURES.
