First Day at Kanbay

March 29th, 2007 by admin

I have accepted an offer from Kanbay(a CapGemini group of company). Yesterday was my last day in Wipro Technologies and today is my first day in Kanbay. I have reached
hyderabadby 8.30 am. From Ameerpet to the Madhapur auto wala charged me 180 bucks but he helped me in searching the guest house. I thought he deserves 20 more bucks i have paid him 200/-. By the time i reach the guest house it was 9.30 am. I took a quick bath and left to office. Finished my joining formalities by 12.oo pm. And the office is tooo … far from the city you can’t find a single auto near to the campus. I felt very bad whether this campus would be my work place. After finishing all of my joining formalities vandana directed me to go to another campus to meet my Project Managers. Now i am at JVP campus and writing this blog. I have met one of the tech lead he explained me something blah blah about Kanbay and about the work. with the conversation i came to know that they are not interested in providing HFI certification but there will be a lot of internal knowledge sharing sessions. I like the JVP campus its not too big like wipro; just park your vehicle within 2 jumps you will be at your desk. There will be no work for me for the first week. Enjoy Maadi.!
