a dissenting voice about infosys and possible favors being done for it. my general thought is that governments bend over backwards to help companies that are their 'champions'. i haven't spent any effort trying to figure out the facts in this particular matter.

"Residential and recreation facilities are being planned to create a "plant suburb" where employees live close to the workplace"

"State Information Technology and Biotechnology Secretary M.K. Shankarlinge Gowda told presspersons here on Friday that the demand for 700 acres submitted by the company for the software park is being processed by the Land Audit Committee."

I work in an excellent facility but there are about 1000 employees in four acres of land. Bought entirely from the market with no governmental favours. I find it grossly unfair - one company in India gets more land than the rest of the industry put together and that too for "residential" and "recreational" purposes. Can the government just not lease the land?
Please enlighten me if I am wrong; please pursue this case if you also find it unjust.

There was a excellent analysis by Mr Krishna Prasad in his weekly column in Deccan Herald, a couple of months back which said that Infosys does not optimally use the space provided to it. I have seen the Infosys Mysore campus myself which is a sheer waste of space and money. Just because Infosys has a lot of cash reserve, it builds buildings to rival the Mysore palace or the St.Peters Cathedral (of Vatican). And to clear the popular misconception that IT industry was grown by NRN, TCS is a much older, respected, and bigger player than Infosys on the IT services front.
