  • Too long working hours and inexperienced on site support.
  • No dignity, recently the President of company equated "4 offshore guys are as good as 1 on site guy"
  • Very very shabby infrastructure

perhaps you are one of the 10 fired employees.

Here is the truth from an Insider. Minecode is an upcoming business and has it's own set of challenges. The nature of projects are typically short term, ranging between 6 weeks - 6 months. These are not multi million dollar projects. However people with right attitude have grown immensely. Most of the onsite stars have been discovered from Minecode India and they have grown tremendously and I would say we retain most of our US employees inspite of staying 100 feet away from Microsoft. If you keep asking what will the company do for me, perhaps you are one of those people with the servant attitude. Unfortunately that is the dynamics of the Indian Market. But with time, Indian market will change and people will such attitude will not find a job.

Yes Balaji, You are right !!!

I think a person who work in any organization he should be loyal for the company as well as their work because work is worship for everyone.

If you have fired by the company , it means something you have done wrong, you have to think and you have to find out the solution why you are out from the company.

If You are able to make it in right direction the it will be more benifitial for you.

Is Short Words

"Minecode is a good organization where you can enjoy the work, here is friendly work enviornment and all are very co-operative"

Unknown said...

I think Minecode should adopt better HR policies, because employee satisfaction is not there atall. They should learn other corporates in India, how they are dealing with employees, how their workplace is.

Atleast I can not blame work at Minecode atall as I had got good projects there.

HIDING MY IDENTITY DUE TO SOME PERSONAL REASON... SORRY...

The truth is Balaji, you yourself are an idiot

Anonymous said...

you people are of servant attitude. Never worked with good companies. Joined minecode having fake experiences. Thats why you are supporting Balaji. Once you leave Minecode, & work with good ones, then post your comments here the truth. Now I am not telling more. Just waiting your comment in future.

Anonymous said...

Oh the IRONY. Balaji, how about you tell the truth now?

Start with the fact that your CEO has just been **convicted of a crime** by the U.S. Justice Department....

what a JOKE.

Balaji.... We have worked under you and we know how you became a "director" and what US employees are you talking about. Minecode US politics have literally reduced the strength to hardly 15 employees driving away all the good talent. Sandeep is technically and personally much superior than you but his loyalty to the company cost him alot. We all are praying for him and hopes he gets out of this fast and with flying colours.
If anybody in US is still staying with Minecode that is because they either dont have a choice or Talent

it doesn't really matter where you work..what matters is what you do and what you are capable of...uploading content in a big Giant doesn't make you any better than the current employees at Minecode...

I know the ceo PK for last 12 years..since TCS days..He was not a IT guy to begin with..He does not know IT..He came to us firdt time in 2000 with false resume..worked for few months and then again became jobless in 2001 recession. Rest of the people who came with him got other oppertunities..He did not get any as he did not know IT. He started a company called syntrgral.net so that he can stay in US for some more time...Later he changed the name to minecode..He is a nice person but doesnot have the necessary IT or Management experience.. I think he was a librarian in TCS Gurgaon office before moving to US with false resume..

I must concur. Minecode is a joke.

Lacking any professionalism, competent developers or direction from the top. During the year that I worked there the company changed direction or focus probably 3 different times, let go their entire sales team and told their programmers and designers to start "selling".

Then asked us all to give up a list of all of our professional contacts. I wouldn't trust minecode to talk to any of my contacts to solicit work from them, as I know from experience the project will be poorly organized, not be executed well, have numerous problems and in the end reflect poorly on me. Bottom line, stay away from minecode unless your desperate, and if you do take the job, start looking for another as soon as you begin cause your time there will be short.

Where are the PRO-Minecode ppl now? Oh yeah, they have moved to Minebrain and have been asked to keep quiet, Minecode has screwed manier careers and there have been guys who worked for PK who are responsible. PK and his ball Sidh are idiots but those who were smart under them gave false promises screwed a lot of people's career.

Pradyumna Kumar Samal & Siddhartha Samal if you hear there names RUN AWAY.

Anonymous said...

MINEBRAIN IS THE NEW MINECODE. SIDDHARTHA IS THE CEO, PK IS RUNNING THE SHOW BEHIND THE SCENE HIRING PEOPLE FROM US AND LURING THEM INTO BIG FAT PAYS.

MINEBRAIN IS TRYING TO MOVE TO NOIDA, THEY ARE TRYING TO ERASE THERE PAST BUT PEOPLE LIKE ME WHO HAVE BEEN HURT BY THESE SCUMS WILL NOT LET THEM ESCAPE.

I WANT ONLY THOSE TO JOIN MINEBRAIN WHO ARE NOT GETTING JOB ANY WHERE BECAUSE YOU ARE AS IT IS NOT GOING TO GET SALARY BUT IF SIDDHARTH HAS ENOUGH MONEY TO BUY DIESEL FOR GENERATOR AT LEAST YOU CAN SIT IN AC AND USE THEIR INTERNET IF SIDDHARTHA HAS PAID AIRTEL BILL AND OF COURSE IF THEY HAVE PAID RENT :)

The first post of Manuj is such a joke, I bet he is also fired now.

Unknown said...

Hi Frnds,

The commets posted by you is not the best way to deal someone....what i suggest if you have some issues with the employer then you must leave them and search a new one because only minecode or any other company is not the destination u people...both of us has to be move on our track for our better career...so frnds don't do tht.

Give your valueble feedbacks only...beacuse if u have such kind of attitude then nowhr u can stay...u always try to blaim someone else...so my dear frnds stop these silly comments here.

Best of luck !!!

Anonymous said...

I Totally agree with all the comments on minebrain Noida cum minecode gurgaon .
They lack professionalism.
Please do not go by there false promises.
They will ruin your carrer.
And Moreoevr the so called HR lady Suman is adding stars to this empire.
thereby making things worse.
If they are giving you handsome hikes and are promising any kind of perks , mark my wrds they will never live up to your expectation.

Mr. Manoj, PK / Siddharth / Minecode / Minebrain has eaten millions of $$$s and lacs of Rupees of employees. Do you want people to leave that and move on?

Anonymous said...

Well, recently I went for an interview in their guraon branch, on phone I talked to HR Suman and she said she is calling from minebrain but when I went to their office, I saw minecode written in office premises.
Got the offe but after reading the comments I'm not sure whether to join this company or not.
The address of the company is 813, Udyog vihar phase -5 gurgaon.
Well, I have never seen such a small and dirty office of an IT company.
Please provide some information on the same.

PK Samal is the CEO of Divensi Inc now. He has mastered the art of Fraud. He is a big time liar.PK samal is a scammer from his family. His Dad was a corrupt govt officer in India and also manages his office in India now. this the Same guy PK SAMAL is still the same crook person. Even after getting a tight slap by court and has been arrested and put a collar on his leg so he cannot move out from states.The difference is that now he knows the loop holes of USA laws and has hired a white attorney to deal with scams, his CFO is a bank fraudster, his brother in-law named Mayank sharma is handling his office in Orrisa to manage his fake employees and money. in washington he has a shitty office with 10 staff. 5 of them are his relatives or servants and couple of them who did some fraud and knew how to bend law, this is a cheap company. PK samal is a know scammer among local Indian community of Bellevue as well. His new company is Divensi Inc.

Be aware of this Fraud PK samal the CEO of Divensi Inc. I saw this recent post by some one and was surprised that till date PK Samal is now operating as CEO of a firm called Divensi. I have worked with this cold hearten and Fraud man earlier. He's a bug whose nature is to suck others money. A liar, a con artist and a man who knows how to make company, advertise it and sell it. Divesni inc and Azimetry are his two companies. PK samal has 10-12 people mot of them are his relatives or his loyal dogs who can lie like him anytime. They are bunch of Indians who have bad reputation in the market. even after he was found guilty for vandalizing clients database and penalized by court, he again willfully moved his assets to India and filed Bankruptcy. Several Americans and His Loyal Indian employees were left with unpaid wages and they filed lawsuit against him. I am also sharing a link about the similar case below check it out and be aware of this snake.

These Guys suppose to Pay me for $13,000, and they are not responding to my emails and phone calls at all after that. I can name the persons names here which i see in the above.
Good luck guys and take care before contracting with these cheaters.

I have not been paid for a 5-day training that I did for Azimetry/Divensi in their Bellevue, WA office in May'2017. I would be very careful dealing with PK Samal. He is a person who seems to not to be an honest man. I would think his conviction in 2009 would have changed him to be a better person. As the government wrote about PK at his sentencing: ......who lacks a strong moral foundation.

A Facebook group that I started:
Azimetry-Divensi "Why Won't You Pay??"

Hi Shubhangi/Roryo,

It's been long time 4+ months now and I did not get response from your end. Please let me know when you are going to return the amount $5200?

In case, if I won't get any further response from your end than I would take serious legal action against your company and report to USCIS about fraud case.

Thank you,

Priyanka V

Hi Shubhangi,


Can you please let me know when can I expect the amount? Also, as priyanka didn't get selected in the lottery so next year also you are going to apply again and I don't have to pay any fee. Please confirm as this was the commitment made by Ajay.

Please let me know how much refund you are going to issue? It's been pending from long time!

Thanks,

P K Samal is in JAIL! H1B Visa fraud. People like him give H1B visa holders and Indians a bad name. Hope he rots in jail.

Samal is a fraud and is arrested now.
Now the anti-H1B folks will use this news to make all H1B visa holders, specially Indians, look bad (WTH).
Thanks P K Samal.
