When millions of Indian youth are still unemployed, asking a small proportion of people to work 70hrs per week and calling it as national development seems to be very stupid.
@@spg6651 You know what is development?? Wait, let me explain. Development is when we bevome progressive with our country many infrastructures, building smart cities, making metro, using more digitalised products. It's not when you exploit people and call it a development. We can use UPI because it is easy to pay and also used in grocery stores . Note that grocery store doesn't require any employee to count that money, owner can do that. Computer will be superior to type writer because you can change your mistakes and it will be quicker not like type writer in which you can't do a single incorrection even by mistake. It will add stress to employees life. E mail is quicker and can be quickly get a response. Development are these. Not making employees " Sl@v€s "....
@@spg6651why to stop UPI... instead increase the UPI functionality and increase the number server across India n this will employee many software, network engineer, operational teams, managers etc etc...

And how much you hate Europe, you can't disagree that they're more eco-friendly comparing to India....
I have a lot of respect for Narayan Murthy. He might have put in a lot of effort in the early days of Infosys, working very long hours, as Sudha Murthy mentioned. However, there's a difference between working hard for your own company and expecting employees to work 70 hours a week. Narayan Murthy knew that if Infosys became successful, he would be the owner. But as employees, even if we work tirelessly, there's uncertainty about whether the company will reward us or let us go when it achieves success. That's why I strongly disagree with his statement.
Very very true . They want us to work like company owners by paying just a pinch of salt salary. If i am an owner of a company i will work day & night to earn as much money as I can . But if i am an employee no matter how much work i do i will get only a salary.
Respect we all do have. But don’t talk crazy cause he doesn’t pay well. Besides, will he take the responsibility of medical, etc etc.??? That means he’s talking rubbish.
Hardest working people in India are hit the hardest. I am 62 and this is what I have seen time and again. Top bosses are afraid of those who are under but better than them. They are sidelined at the very first opportunity, better removed if possible. They are a threat to the top management due to their honesty, sincerity and efficiency.
He is in his 70's. So, obviously he says 70, 70, 70.. for everything.. no one takes it seriously. He has free will to implement 70hr/w in Infosys and then see the result..
Why don't the corporates reduce the working hours to 8 hours and employ one more person. That way there will be 100 % job opportunities. Productivity and employment.
We don't need everybody in IT. Our Bhaarat is vast country with vast amount of opportunities in every culture, tradition, languages, music, knowledge. If I want anyone to work for 70 hours, I would have allowed work from home even before Corona. IT companies should give satellite internet to every person working so that their commute is nil. Talking is easy, doing is difficult.
@@spg6651 You are talking absurd, what is stopping Amazon with working 70hrs per week, looks like you are in management or owner, owners have different perspective than employees, blood sucking mentality.
My friend, Chronic Back Pain is still incurable. High salary isn't worth getting back pain. I would rather spend extra two hours learning new skill rather than putting that in work.
Just to add, the real quality work to be done everyday cannot last beyond 4 hrs. I personally practice this and strongly recommend to take care of health core and set a balance to your work. I am saying this after being in industry for 15 yrs. Trust me your health will become more sensitive post 40.
Why anyone should work 70 hours a week when Europeans work on 40 hours a week. Europeans are paid Overtime by their employers and this is enforced by the Unions. e-Slavery at Best. Why Narayan Murthy wants me to work 70 hours a week so that Infosys share price rises, so that he becomes even more richer.

Each passing day I feel more grateful and see more reasons why I never joined, and never will join Infosys. With leadership thinking like this, no wonder people hate service-based companies nowadays
Hi Sir Thanks on the insightful video! Your McKinsey experiences and interview tips are invaluable to college students like me. Please consider making more videos to share your expertise. Thanks, Ayush
My appeal to this generation don't follow Narayana Murthy. Put the priority on health and family. I worked more than 70 hours a week. It was okay till you are 30years, at 35years i got lifestyle desease called diabetes and suffered major health crisis at 48years almost died twice once due to covid, and due to 100% block in arteries in the leg for working long hours sitting at the desk, fortunately not heart. Now at the age of 50 years. I cannot sit for 3hours continuously. I cannot walk for more than 50meters because my leg muscles tighten up, however if i continue to walk further then i suffer terrible painful leg cramps at night.
Clear explanation for the recent debate happening! Thanks for the sharing this info and it reminds me the concept of "Think Win-Win" as stated by Mr.Stephen Covey in his famous book.

Of all the companies the one company I hate is Infosys . Mr NM sometime back said no one should work more than 40 hours . The culture of working more than 40 hours in a week came from infosys. They seemed to be so proud of working like this .
Tag Narayan Murthy Sir to this video, let him learn something out of this. I know he is guy who paved India to become one of the IT service hub, but what these top services company do is really bad in terms of rewarding employees. I know that sometine after 1 or 2 yrs freshers leave organisation but atleast they can reward guys staying in company for 2 to 3 yrs with good salary hikes and bonuses. In my organisation many people are proposing for 4 days/week working standard with increased working hours on these 4days.
No one works more than 37.5 hours oer week in North America. The wealth created here was from innovative and creatical thinking not by working like a donkey. Didnt expect this from a NYSE listed company Executive.
Infosys PR, Marketing failed this time. First of all infosys has to pay like west before coming out with such statement. What is the pay of a Programmer in Infosys India compared to US or Germany? Can a youth buy laptop with one month salary in India? In US youth can buy one laptop as well take care of that month expenses. There is a huge disparity of salary in India and US. How much stress youth of India has to go through for Roti, Kapda, Makan and Paani? There is lot of drinking water issue in Bangalore, Chennai, Pune and Mumbai. Infosys has to work 70hrs with government and provide 24hrs drinking water to Bangalore people.

So life = just work? What bullshit! People have families and their own personal goals to achieve. Its already terrible and stressful and heart attacks are highest in India. These rich folks need to just chill and enjoy rest of their life in peace and let others live their life.
Then why dont ask mcnisky to hire all the tcs / infy staff?? Hope you understand what you are saying. That is the value proposition infy / tcs have to offer. Just to remind you bonded labour is banned long back.
In infosys freshers annual salary is 3.75 PA. But in other sectors most freshers or even experienced works for less than 10000 Rs Per month. Is it worth for them? What about employee who has to do physical work. can they do it for 70 hrs a week?
In 2024 elections One of the main agenda for the middle class - "Amendments in Labour laws,Work Culture of Indian Corporates" like •Bringing the weekly working hour quota from 48 to 42-44 hours per week. •Adequate Compensation for overtime. •Amending the leave facilities according to the present. •Focusing on the result actually not the quantity of time- That is done in the Developed Countries for physical, mental well-being of the population. If parties want to get the Middle Class votes this is the first thing that needs to be in every party's manifestos. If the population of the country is mentally,emotionally happy and stable earing money in whatever way the GDP and country as a whole will do well its self.
I agree with Narayan Murthy. The reason is my experience working with several companies taught me that if these employees will work for 70 hours a week then they will end up working 70 minutes a week. These employees are always busy in saying "I am busy" and making several excuses through out the day to avoid work. They just want NO WORK BUT ALL MONEY.
well said, That's the reality you can not pass orders to employee to work for long hours, if leader himself is not working for same hours. That's the bad example as a leader.
They are working so lunch because IT people like us breakdown after certain point in time and had to seek medical help. Hope you understood the connections
The expected suggestion from stalwarts like Narayan Murthy should have been, govt employees should start working atleast 40hrs/week. The least productive breed of Indian employees
What Mr Murthy actually meant was... "This is my company (not country) and youngsters should work 70 hrs a week so that I can pay you ₹100/hr and compete with other companies which made tremendous progress..😂" But because of greed and absent mindedness at old age it came out like this. Anyways the split up you made which showed ₹100 / hr is really was awesome😊
I worked in a software consultancy where people r already working 12-14 hours everyday, since years together So most people r already slagging it out & there's no family or any free time
This type of business people always think about 70 hours working by employees in a week and give as less salary as possible. They do not think about the life of employees.
Show this to narayan ji hope he will understand a life of employee. being ceo is different and been employee is different He is only looking after his profit rather than a life of employee we all know how is our so called corporate world work
No employee can work 70 hours in a week. 8 hours a day out of which 1 hour lunch time and Monday to Friday. No question of working more hours but if four-time overtime is given some people will be ready to work more hours.
Offcourse some countries follow working hours a week,but their monthly earning is more than India,but when India's monthly earning is already lower than the country that follow that,will they increase the expanse for extra hours.
It is very difficult to work 70 hrs per week, tell me after working 8 hrs a day we will get tired or not? If we are tired then can we be productive after that, so even if you work more than 8 hrs a day productivity will not increase whether it is a labour work or intellectual it doesn't matter.
I think Mr. Narayan Murthy has lost his senses long time ago. If we bluntly follow his advice there will be no more good family, good friends, good social relations will be left over in the society. Wealthiest resource of this nation is not money or commodities it is human personnel with good health and clear mindset. Corporates want to exploit us in these areas also.
First of all getting selected for corporates in respective roles seems sometimes Hard and after that these miracles will happen bcz of the office politics work hours No social life, No one cares your hard work, No private life, No free time, Begging Permissions for every single leave, No health, Stress, Anxiety, Sleeplessness, Depression, Lack of emotional health, No time for extra activities, No leisure with family, You are just a number not a member like human,for the corporates Im not saying it is applicable for all but some companies do provide great benefits and good work life balance for their employees
If he is asking us to work for 70hrs, I'll consider it, only if they are willing to pay for 140hrs. If you are asking for double work with same salary I can ask for double payment for same work.
Leadership is by example.People don't do what you say but do what you do.All Indians (employees)are your brothers and sisters.Take responsibility (good food to physical exercise emotional fitness) to see that thay are working more effectively irrespective irrespective
70 hours a week to get ifosys richer at the expense of the working class health . The old man is barking mad . Employee is not a shareholder they are there to earn a living not to be abused by these elitist . Who have sufficient money in and a personal stake in the company . I would like to work on my company for 70 hours a week but not at anyone's company where I do not have a substantial stake into . His words are cruel and stupid at the same time .
Sir,infosys founder perhaps did not think enough about 70 hrs/week statement. With his international understanding and experience it became an irresponsible suggestion.Surprisingly the interviewer condoned the suggestion and did not muster courage to probe him further.
Work life balance debate- Explanation - 1. One rule can't be applied to all as every individual is different with capabilities, dreams and nature. 2. There are people who are extraordinary and ambitious like Narayan Murthy.. which may be account only 5% of total population.. 3. So what about other 95% population who are very ordinary in capabilities and ambition..? 4. What about per capita income and purchasing power..? 5. If all people will focus on one job then what about other industries.. ?how other industries will get customers from..? 6. Work life balance will balance all industries. Conclusion - 1. Narayan Murthy philosophy is good but is only applicable for few people and not for the most of the population as it will create imbalance in society.. 2. Instead work life balance will improve per capita income and purchasing power of an employee which can become a customer for other industries.. 3. So work life balance philosophy will help accelerate economy of the nation.. Indian constitution says सत्यमेव जयते.. So am I telling the truth..? Sincere thoughts by Amit Pustake Who am I?

This redeculas sqezing employee sweet, Same way Will they provide triple their salaries? India should have employee benefit policy. And their work hours per day 6/7 hrs per day beyond that it's illegal After covid all employees moved to their hometowns and only remote/wfh only possible in feature in IT jobs And add the employees as partners so they feel like they work in their own company max time
How much Money Infosys is spending on R&D? and how many products did they develop?. We should be doing smart quality work not hard work. Even in the age of ML and AI where automation is at peak, Mr. Murthy is counting the no of hours a person should work instead of looking for productivity.
Singapore counterpart team of our poject literally does same work like us but they are paid 120,000$ per annum. But we are getting paid 14,000$ per annum. Argument which supports that paygap is cost of living. If my country has groceries, fruits and vegetables selling at lesser price because of abundance of availability and Real estate cost is lesser. I should be called the blessed one for having opportunity to save major chunk of the income. But it doesn't work like that. Sunce cost of living is less in India, employees from that country shall be paid peanuts.
@@spg6651Yes Idiot, that is exactly why Brain Drain is a phenomenon in India. People will Not work like donkeys anymore - otherwise, pay them the salaries of these CEOs. Put guarantees to their Jobs atleast for 5 Years - just like that of the PM and CM. Stop spewing stupidity here.
Like comparison with unskilled labor aspect in Indian context. This is the only reason why US allow to replace their IT guys by Indian IT guys. Mr. Murthy is a trader and not value creator. So how much seriously you take his word is upto individual.
This video is missing the whole point. This basically built a strawman argument about how Infosys is exploiting its workers and not paying them and attacking that. Well that may be true, but that is not what the discussion is about. Human beings are remarkable creations. And decisive statements like "No one can work productively for more than 4-5 hours" is complete nonsense no matter who said them. It depends on your motivation. Because if you are having fun doing it then you can work productively for much longer. And if you dont enjoy what you're doing then you cant even work an hour. I studied for 12 hours a day 7 days a week, when preparing for JEE and that was the best time of my life. What is implicit in what NM said was find something worth it. Something that truly inspires you and then work 70 hours. He never asked you to work a dead end job at Infosys. That is just what people are misinterpreting what he said so it is easier to defeat the argument.
When millions of Indian youth are still unemployed, asking a small proportion of people to work 70hrs per week and calling it as national development seems to be very stupid.

If parties want to get the Middle Class votes this is the first thing that needs to be in every party's manifestos. If the population of the country is mentally,emotionally happy and stable earing money in whatever way the GDP and country as a whole will do well its self.
Narayan Murthy should state about the accountability of politicians, he left them and falling on middle class employees.
He is an exploiter.
I agree with Narayan Murthy.
The reason is my experience working with several companies taught me that if these employees will work for 70 hours a week then they will end up working 70 minutes a week.
These employees are always busy in saying "I am busy" and making several excuses through out the day to avoid work. They just want NO WORK BUT ALL MONEY.
well said, That's the reality you can not pass orders to employee to work for long hours, if leader himself is not working for same hours. That's the bad example as a leader.
he will say 70 hrs per week good, then criticizes Kareena for flight behavior, Infosys will employ everyone I guess , first his HR department sucks
😂😂😂 , medical residents and interns working 100 hr in week is minimum___ "minimum"____
They are working so lunch because IT people like us breakdown after certain point in time and had to seek medical help. Hope you understood the connections
The expected suggestion from stalwarts like Narayan Murthy should have been, govt employees should start working atleast 40hrs/week. The least productive breed of Indian employees
As always a great share..
Good overview. Thanks
If work hours are increased, doesn’t it decrease the job opportunities of others..??
What Mr Murthy actually meant was...
"This is my company (not country) and youngsters should work 70 hrs a week so that I can pay you ₹100/hr and compete with other companies which made tremendous progress..😂"
But because of greed and absent mindedness at old age it came out like this.
Anyways the split up you made which showed ₹100 / hr is really was awesome😊
People r running after technology but how much technology do we need to leave a happy life. Too much technology makes life more complicated.
I worked in a software consultancy where people r already working 12-14 hours everyday, since years together
So most people r already slagging it out & there's no family or any free time
This type of business people always think about 70 hours working by employees in a week and give as less salary as possible. They do not think about the life of employees.
Show this to narayan ji hope he will understand a life of employee.
being ceo is different and been employee is different
He is only looking after his profit rather than a life of employee we all know how is our so called corporate world work
Employees have become so tolerant to let these people alive.
Employees are hurting themselves by letting these people alive.
First on-board us and give projects who r in bench from past 1.5 years
No employee can work 70 hours in a week. 8 hours a day out of which 1 hour lunch time and Monday to Friday. No question of working more hours but if four-time overtime is given some people will be ready to work more hours.
Offcourse some countries follow working hours a week,but their monthly earning is more than India,but when India's monthly earning is already lower than the country that follow that,will they increase the expanse for extra hours.
Awesome ❤
He has lost his marbles!!! How about hire more people and pay them well and make them productive, rather than double up the hours on employed.
One thing missed is.. he did not say 70 hours for the company.. 70 hours productive work for nation.. hear his statement properly....
It is very difficult to work 70 hrs per week, tell me after working 8 hrs a day we will get tired or not? If we are tired then can we be productive after that, so even if you work more than 8 hrs a day productivity will not increase whether it is a labour work or intellectual it doesn't matter.
Why do corporate forget that they were also freshers in the past?
Ask the government to build the infrastructure in right way and compete with US..
When you are sitting on desk with A.I. or Fastest Computer Operating system what will the EMPLOYEE will be doing for 70 Hrs.
If 70 hours per week then burnout and no time to upskill . 40-45 hours is ok. Rest spend in upgrading.
I think Mr. Narayan Murthy has lost his senses long time ago. If we bluntly follow his advice there will be no more good family, good friends, good social relations will be left over in the society. Wealthiest resource of this nation is not money or commodities it is human personnel with good health and clear mindset. Corporates want to exploit us in these areas also.
First of all getting selected for corporates in respective roles seems sometimes Hard and after that these miracles will happen
bcz of the office politics work hours
No social life,
No one cares your hard work,
No private life,
No free time,
Begging Permissions for every single leave,
No health,
Stress,
Anxiety,
Sleeplessness,
Depression,
Lack of emotional health,
No time for extra activities,
No leisure with family,
You are just a number not a member like human,for the corporates
Im not saying it is applicable for all but some companies do provide great benefits and good work life balance for their employees
Let Infosys Individually contribute 70 percent of National GDP then we can think about of working for 70 hours.
Why to work to make corporotes earn more profits but what we get is peanuts
Absolutely! Nothing that we gain
If he is asking us to work for 70hrs,
I'll consider it, only if they are willing to pay for 140hrs.
If you are asking for double work with same salary I can ask for double payment for same work.
Leadership is by example.People don't do what you say but do what you do.All Indians (employees)are your brothers and sisters.Take responsibility (good food to physical exercise emotional fitness) to see that thay are working more effectively irrespective irrespective
this is my formal application for infosys i dont care about the working hours!
Will he ask his daughter and son in law to work for 70 hours a week ?
R other country youngstar working 70 hrs week
70 hours a week to get ifosys richer at the expense of the working class health . The old man is barking mad . Employee is not a shareholder they are there to earn a living not to be abused by these elitist . Who have sufficient money in and a personal stake in the company . I would like to work on my company for 70 hours a week but not at anyone's company where I do not have a substantial stake into . His words are cruel and stupid at the same time .
Employees work hard with minimal wages to make stakeholders richer
Sir,infosys founder perhaps did not think enough about 70 hrs/week statement. With his international understanding and experience it became an irresponsible suggestion.Surprisingly the interviewer condoned the suggestion and did not muster courage to probe him further.
Work life balance debate-
Explanation -
1. One rule can't be applied to all as every individual is different with capabilities, dreams and nature.
2. There are people who are extraordinary and ambitious like Narayan Murthy.. which may be account only 5% of total population..
3. So what about other 95% population who are very ordinary in capabilities and ambition..?
4. What about per capita income and purchasing power..?
5. If all people will focus on one job then what about other industries.. ?how other industries will get customers from..?
6. Work life balance will balance all industries.
Conclusion -
1. Narayan Murthy philosophy is good but is only applicable for few people and not for the most of the population as it will create imbalance in society..
2. Instead work life balance will improve per capita income and purchasing power of an employee which can become a customer for other industries..
3. So work life balance philosophy will help accelerate economy of the nation..
Indian constitution says
सत्यमेव जयते..
So am I telling the truth..?

Pay by hour and allow employees to fix number p
Of hours .
NALAYAK murthy
Karl Marx was right. It is battle in capitalist society which split into two classes: the proletariat( workers ) and the bourgeoisie ( capitalists ).
This redeculas sqezing employee sweet,
Same way Will they provide triple their salaries?
India should have employee benefit policy. And their work hours per day 6/7 hrs per day beyond that it's illegal
After covid all employees moved to their hometowns and only remote/wfh only possible in feature in IT jobs
And add the employees as partners so they feel like they work in their own company max time
How much Money Infosys is spending on R&D? and how many products did they develop?. We should be doing smart quality work not hard work. Even in the age of ML and AI where automation is at peak, Mr. Murthy is counting the no of hours a person should work instead of looking for productivity.
Singapore counterpart team of our poject literally does same work like us but they are paid 120,000$ per annum. But we are getting paid 14,000$ per annum.
Argument which supports that paygap is cost of living. If my country has groceries, fruits and vegetables selling at lesser price because of abundance of availability and Real estate cost is lesser. I should be called the blessed one for having opportunity to save major chunk of the income. But it doesn't work like that.
Sunce cost of living is less in India, employees from that country shall be paid peanuts.
@@spg6651Yes Idiot, that is exactly why Brain Drain is a phenomenon in India. People will Not work like donkeys anymore - otherwise, pay them the salaries of these CEOs. Put guarantees to their Jobs atleast for 5 Years - just like that of the PM and CM. Stop spewing stupidity here.
Great analysis Sir 👏🏽👍
Great video!
Like comparison with unskilled labor aspect in Indian context. This is the only reason why US allow to replace their IT guys by Indian IT guys.
Mr. Murthy is a trader and not value creator. So how much seriously you take his word is upto individual.
That's a good word! Trader and not a value creator
This video is missing the whole point. This basically built a strawman argument about how Infosys is exploiting its workers and not paying them and attacking that. Well that may be true, but that is not what the discussion is about. Human beings are remarkable creations. And decisive statements like "No one can work productively for more than 4-5 hours" is complete nonsense no matter who said them. It depends on your motivation. Because if you are having fun doing it then you can work productively for much longer. And if you dont enjoy what you're doing then you cant even work an hour. I studied for 12 hours a day 7 days a week, when preparing for JEE and that was the best time of my life. What is implicit in what NM said was find something worth it. Something that truly inspires you and then work 70 hours. He never asked you to work a dead end job at Infosys. That is just what people are misinterpreting what he said so it is easier to defeat the argument.
Well explained
Mr. Narayan Murthy why are you saying this now?? Why couldn't you say the same decades back,,that time also it was my country for anyone in india
