That's the name of the bar in Orly West from which I am watching SA versus Mexico on a TV that looks like it has been shipped from Africa especially for the game. It’s the end of my first week at Wipro and I’ve already been to Reading, London, Paris and Amsterdam…on the flight back to Paris I tried to gather my thoughts. A summary (admittedly based on very limited information)…..
It is definitely more dynamic and faster moving but one definitely doesn’t see the same rigueur – you don’t always get the feeling that efforts to push things forward are as efficient as they might be. That said, there is a can-do attitude around the whole place that is palpable.
There is a very clear split between the sales and the delivery organizations for 75% of my activities. That said it is clear that it is not a very hierarchical at all – everything is based on ideas and results. Therefore somewhat unsurprisingly, peoples’ focus really is on numbers, numbers, numbers, relationships and then numbers some more (more about this in future posts no doubt).
I like my boss, that the offices are dingy compared to Accenture’s glorious premises, and that I am going to earn lots of air miles and hotel points.
Looking forward – I am definitely keen to see how offshore works – the initial glimpses I got from a conversation this morning are very exciting, from a sales perspective at least.
And a prediction for the football? SA 1 Mexico 3, and Uruguay 2 France 0.
