I felt it was important to share this write-up about Balaji Desikan who's the account head of ADM projects, after coming across some negative and derogatory comments in a public forum. I'm not here to take sides or pass judgement, but rather to provide my honest experience working under his leadership on two key transformational projects for a reputed australian client over than span of 1.5 years. I had the privilege of being an active core team member on both these projects that we had delivered successfully, earning multiple accolades from the client's stakeholder and management. During my time working under him, He's someone who consistently focused on the betterment of the project, always striving to improve our ways of working. He played a pivotal role in setting up the process initiatives across project management, delivery and reporting, all of which were crucial to our success. One notable improvement that he brought in was the best practices for reporting project status and updates. This included creating daily detailed reports during UAT/E2E phases, as well as weekly and delivery reports through dashboards. Also, we standardized the email report templates, providing stakeholders with clear, consolidated view of key metrics, current progress, potential risks and proposed remediation. Our client stakeholders regularly expressed their appreciation for the clarity and transparency of our reports. These helped them stay aligned with project status and provided valuable insights into both progress & challenges. One of our biggest wins, was that these reporting practices were recognized as best practices and have been implemented in their org, receiving praise from their top management. Like any critical project, we faced challenges and some heated moments which is part and parcel of any project delivery. We delivered these projects successfully without any slippages and in good quality which were critical to client, as they viewed them as transformational initiatives that would significantly reduce with operational costs. The client management team from abroad even scheduled a special meeting to acknowledge the successful delivery of the project, even though we were the vendor company. They expressed their appreciation for entire team & Balaji, for the efforts in successful delivery of these projects. Personally I'm proud to be part of this journey & BALAJI DESIKAN's team. I have learnt a lot from him on the ways of working, project management and delivery, reporting which enhanced my skills in these areas at the end of these assignments. I thank him for his mentorship. I would like to conclude with the saying "A mentor is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way"....Read More

I don't think I like anything from this company
I worked for Ford client. The Ford projects were handled by a guy named Balaji Desikan. Eventhough the company has good reputation before this guy is spoiling the name by abusing his employees and their families. He looks to be having serious mental health condition cause in meetings instead of planning and talking about technologies with engineers he tells his prideful stories and wastes the times of those engineers. He is extremely self conscious and abuses anyone who brings a better idea. If you oppose his points he would call you names. I don't know who appointed such an immature person as a delivery head for such a big client like Ford. Because of his abuses some people had gone to an extent of suicide. I think soon cause of him the company will get into trouble. There is no professionalism or practicality in the way he talks. He just want to make the employees work for 16 hrs if they refuse he will treat them badly. He even abuses women and easily gets away with it. He often comes to the meeting as if he is going to handle everything but in truth he just abuses everyone for a full day and calls name on managers of the project, establishes himself to be superior and tells his stories and he wastes a full day. Then he asks for productivity of the day cause of that we need to work at late nights. He wants people to work on weekends and in holidays as if we are going to get the salary of a CEO and he won't give the allowances. We can't even come out to drink water he will immediately assume that we are wasting time such a worse culture he is maintaining in the organization. I never seen such an immature person in this height. Anyway I am leaving this company hence I don't have to worry. I am writing this review to warn the ones whoever is looking to join this organization in Chennai Tambaram Mepz....Read More
