microsoft represents the old guard, the place where nobody gets fired and no superstar survives; the 'mediocre'.

it represents security, 'the known'

What are these people. 8K rupees a month = $200. Security guard - are you kidding me ?

the culture in india is risk averse. i grew up there, went to undergrad there and then come to an engineering school here. i had no trouble getting job offers, but declined them so I can do a startup, and my mom still feels so insecure that she asks me to take up a job with microsoft every time i talk to her.
