HCL plans to give Mercedes-Benz to performers - Times of India

BENGALURU: It’s a technologist’s market and IT firms are warming up to cool perks and cash-based incentives to retain talent as replacements may come at 20% higher costs. Top performers in HCL Technologies, for instance, might drive home a Mercedes Benz.
HCL CHRO Apparao VV said the proposal is with the board for approval. The company had given out 50 Mercedes Benz cars to top performers in 2013, but later discontinued the practice.

Ya'll Nibbiars Many says the Rajendra Kumar was almost Communist but not. During the Satranjee which was against Mlecchas and totally against Communists had seen theaters in Kolkata getting burned by the Commuust Mob and the Communust Goverment in the WB banned that film.

Just in case there are still people who don’t know how things used to be pre-1990’s.

there might be a few areas of governance that are still like this, these things get sorted over a period of time. Every country has them.

Two PMs; Nehru and Indira brought us to this.

Three PMs; PVNR, ABV and Modi rescued us from the Nehru-Indira hellholes.
