Not you - if company in profit they why all got less %.In name cost cutting Indian management ruining life of qualified peoples. -off shore vp is good he asked for clarity but sir our voice are suppressed because they not allowing our voice to reach you. - revenge was taken by them in increments, to shut people mouth. -Ruined culture of politics .
