Understanding the mindset of people who are working at these giant corporations mainly TCS, Infosys, Tech Mahindra and Wipro is important if this plan has to be successful. Many of my friends work at these companies and have been to US to work onsite with clients. When I asked them why they don’t look for another job in US, their take was that they don’t want to settle in US. They have their family, friends in India and they just want to make their “money” and return home. They don’t consider themselves “cheap labor” as the article states because they do save a lot of money as compared to what they were making in India. They also don’t want to take a risk of branching out and working at a startup unless its a big name. Which is understandable, very few of them have worked at startups and with most startups failing they don’t want to take the risk of finding another job or going back to India empty handed. Unless they have studied in US and did a couple of part time jobs or internships in US its tough to convince someone to be a part of your startup. That said, I will love for this idea to be successful. Good luck!
