On working at ZS
What is something you really like about working for ZS?
“The result-oriented focus of the team, combined with a lack of red tape.”
What most surprised you when you started at ZS?
“I was pleasantly surprised by how friendly everyone is! Here, people walk up to you and introduce themselves, and go out of their way to help you.”
On working in Pune
“Pune is a fast-growing city with a young population, albeit with a traffic problem. There are lots of interesting places to eat, drink, or lounge around. The quality of food in most places is surprisingly good, and reasonably priced to boot.”
On commuting to work
“I live in Koregaon Park, which is about 15 minutes away from work, and is a green and quiet suburb. I use the office pickup and drop facility to commute to work.”
On where to get project help
“I just walk up to people (or call them), ask them if they have some time to spare, and get their help.”
