You would be surprised if I tell you that I resigned from Infosys because I didn't like wearing a neck-tie on Monday mornings. But if you are my friend you would have guessed it right - I'm kidding! But that is the answer I give to most of the people who ask me the same question - Why did you quit Infy? Probably, that's one of the best ways, I feel, to keep away from such questions.

Well! jokes apart, my journey that began a couple of years back wouldn't have been better than this. And I am really grateful to this great company for all that she has bestowed in me. More importantly, for all that I have learnt from her - transforming me from a novice fresher to a skilled professional. Well, everything starts with a dream and when things start, we encounter priorities and priorities give rise to new dreams. When your dreams and priorities match you arrive at a decision and you move ahead and follow your dreams.

Definitely, learning was my primary purpose when I joined Infosys. I loved the brand, I wanted to be among the best in class people who continously keep on seeking best in breed solutions to problems. Well that's a pretty obvious thought to possess as a novice, Isn't it? But, will mere being a part of this glorious team help you attaining your dream? I'm not expecting an answer here! Cos' I have the answer for this now and it took me two years to find it.

I have a few friends of mine who talk about being faithful to organizations and who talk about switching their jobs once they get their CRR ratings. No matter, this feeling lasts only for a few weeks after their apprisals after which they either forget about it or they hardly find any time to peek out from their desktop screens. These are mere reactions resulted from unsure thoughts. But life is all about chasing your dreams and it is too short for a wrong or an unsatisfying job. If you think your current position would not result in the fulfillment of your dream then switching is the option.

I have switched three organizations in less than three years and I'm happy for all of my decisions. I would rather like to be loyal towards my work rather than organizations. It's the give and take relationship that sustains the world!
