Even the stock exchange and the market indicators confirm the recovery and promise growth of the economy...!! But there is another... more prominent... and more visible indicator of the health of IT sector... and it is the "ATTRITION"!! ... :):)
As things are now looking up... and future appears bright... so the job market is upbeat ...and we say that this is the best time to switch jobs...!! :):) The fact is... the industry is in a state of flux... with lot of people moving out... and lot of new people moving in...!!
Initially, I thought... that this is the story of my organization only... but then realized ... this is the same everywhere... across locations... and across companies...!! All of a sudden ... people are looking out for job change... primarily for money... possibly for designation... or location... may be for quality of work... even for the work-life balance...!! There can be varied reasons... but one thing that is common and consistent... is the ‘Goodbye’ mail. :) !!!
Nearly everyone who leaves... sends in one last email from the (soon-to-be discontinued) official email id... to say the last few words...!! Some mails are short and sweet, some are longer. Some mails are professional and to the point, some are emotional and tear-inducing. But in any case, these mails are pretty interesting. :)..
Even without us realizing it or giving it any serious thought.... sending ‘Goodbye’ mail has become a tradition... though untold and unacknowledged...!!
In the recent past.... I have received quite a few goodbye mails... and each of these mails is distinct ... in its style... its content... its way of expression....!! These mails speak a lot about the person.... his or her emotional quotient... attachment with the organization... the quality of the time spent... and also of the memories created...!!
PS- I am not biased for any specific industry or sector... just that I am limited by my own exposure... I have only worked with the IT industry...!!
