Programming Myself.. Ambati Sreedhar

Today I completed all the exit formalities with Proteans ..the company which I loves more and which I feels like home.

 

The best company I come across in my 5 yrs of my software experience.

 

I really loved it .. enjoyed working with Proteans.

 

For joining Proteans I waited for 2 yrs.Then got the oppurtunity to join there.

 

I am specially telling thanks to Sudhakar and Prashant Singh who always listened my words and read my mails even in their busy schedules.

 

I met the best PM and the best architect. Thanks Prakash J and Sendhil. Really helped me in understanding the passion about technology.

 

Proteans gave offer letter to me on Jan 16th 2007 but I took nearly 2 months for joining Proteans.

At that time I bargained with that offer letter. Really my attitude is like that.

But now after working there my attitude has changed. Its trust and honesty matters. And the technology ...

Yes Proteans built me both mentally and technically.

Thanks PJ,Sendhil,Murugan, Ashish Kakani,Venkat,Deepak Trama,Prashant Sharma for all your support.

Last 4 months I am at the peak of my career. Wrote articles on SharePoint,GreatPlains,CMS. Got good response on Sharepoint. More download.

I am not that much good in facing audience.But I gave session in Bdotnet.

I worked in CRM,GP,Sharepoint,3.5.

 

Last 15 days are really tough for me.

 

I couldnt able to digest atleast for 10 days.

 

I love technology. I love attending techical sessions. I love Proteans.

 

PJ and Sudhakar had taken interview for me 2 yrs back.

PJ said thanks to me for coming to the interview 30 mins. That day is Saturday and he is very busy with new project ClientProfiles.

I cleared that round. He asked so many questions starting from .net, wcf,wwf,wpf and then NUnit, and UML.

Then Sudhakar asked a question regarding SMARTCLIENTS.

I thought CEO round is like managerial round. I told something which is not fully correct. He told the reason when to go for smart clients.

Really impressed. After taking the offer letter I was very scared if CEO is this much technically strong then how the team members will be.. Thats why taken more time to join Proteans. I went 2 times to speak with PJ regarding the project before joining Proteans. 

I done a good job by accepting that offer. It has changed my life , my approach of reaching technology..

 

Thanks Preejith (HR) for giving this oppurtunity.

I got offer letter from Proteans

Actually that time I saved Proteans phone numbers and have not taken Preejith calls.I am doing bargaining with other companies.

But Preejith came in a new way.He told her friend from other company to call me.I took the call and told that I want more package

than Proteans.

I went to Proteans to meet PJ for knowing the project before joining Proteans.He told me nicely.

Preejith came there and told the above that I am not taking his call and looking for another offer.

Sorry.

Thanks Preejith and Proteans for a nice wonderful journey there for more than 2.5 yrs.

 

Got good friends : Mohan , Gaurav, Saai, Ashish Tripati, Shiddu, Deepak Trama ,

 

Thanks Srini, Sudarshan, Vikram, Sreejith for your support.

 

FOCUS is the mantra...

I worked with diffferent teams in my current company.

 

I loved working these teams.

 

I learned so many things personally.

 

PJ Sendhil helped me to be in right technical track.

Murugan team helped me how to make friends even with seniors eg: Deepak Trama.

Murugan helped me how to be cool even in critical stages and give good results.

Arunav Engage team helped me how to go to different domain and play with technology ..It helped me coding language doesnt matter. Its domain matters.

Venkat helped me how a master should be.

 

Now the current team helped me how to do multiple tasks in one shot giving the best results.

Prashant is always with the team. Always a smily face. I really liked this. It helps theteam members that project manager is with me. I usually feels that my project manager is with me.I can do the task even though it is difficult.

But people shouting at others have to think on this though they are very good at attitude and commitment.

 

Conclusion : So team behaves as per the project manager behaviour.

 

 

 

I prefer working with different teams.

If I am doing the same thing for more than 1 yr I know the advantages of it.

I can get grip of the team and the technology.Seniors also can understand better.

If it is  1-2 yrs its ok. but if more .Usually it increases arrogance and usually

people will move to a stage and they wont listen for the new happenings. They will forget the remaining world.

They will live in their own world. "Like windows application is greater than web application" such type of things they will tell.

 

Thats why I dont like staying with the same group.

Usually in weekends I used to attend usergroup meetings .

There I can meet new people and can think for new things new technologies

new ways to solve a problem..

 

This is my opinion.

It is helping me always that there is so much to learn and makes me going in the right way.

Suppose If I am attending java meeting I have to ask someone for simple things also in their space.

It helps me to keep my arrogance in control and makes me search for new things always. A constant learner.

Greediness,selfishness are in control. It made me not to feel shy or greedy for asking others for new things.

It is helping me in building my character that technology , money does nt matter.

At the end of the day how much you helped the fellow people it matters.

Nobody will take anything from this world .They will come with empty hands and leave the world with same ..
