I worked in mobilink more than two years and now no job.

Who is responsible. ? ? ?

Somethings i read along , that i would like to clear :

“Why someone who got the century award & someone who had been working for 12 years fired ? ”

You are right , if he had been working here for so long , now at such a high post , why should his performance SUDDENLY go down ? . Here’s why , what the outsiders dont know is the dramatic restructuring that has occured in the above mentioned person’s dept. His reporting line had changed , the new reporting line noticed the lack of performance and the case was opened. Old reporting line was found corrupt in another case and dismissed as well. Its a typical case of a higher up , taking his favourite juniour up the ladder. So the decision was justified when things became clearer.

“Bad Treatment to the Employees on Firing”

There was none , they were asked to leave in a private room in the presence of their Senior. Infact some Company Assets were left to them untill they are stable enough to leave them, in honor of their service. The above mentioned person still has the company car and is using it.

So lets not point fingers without knowing facts , there’s no point in getting emotional over these issues . I ask you , if you were running a company , you were not making profit , would you still keep the employees that are not giving you any profit ? or would you replace them with better ones ?

And for the last time , its not “DOWNSIZING” , the headcount will be replaced by other people more suitable for the job, these senior management positions cannot be left empty , anyone with a right mind can realise that.

Please get your facts straight before accusing needlessly.

Grow up pal, this is real life, this is corporate life. It has nothing to do with culture, it has to do with performance. If you perform, you’re in, if you dont, you’re out!! Simple as that! This equation applies across the world and is not only subject to Mobilink or Pakistan.

Mobilink would not have been at its stature today without doing something right!! IF we had all safarshees, if employees were treated so poorly and paid low salaries, then we wouldnt be where we are today.

Go read other blog entries above where people have talked about how employees were treated abroad when they got fired. We are very quick to point fingers locally and blame others for creating a climate of fear, however, what people like you dont realize is that companies abroad, when they fire someone, they treat them like scums of the earth!

I suggest that you be grateful that companies like Mobilink exist that have brought in billions of dollars for the country and has employeed thousands of people and brought in a good name for the country. Our brands such as Jazz and Indigo have been consistently recognized worldwide as one of the best recognized brands in Asia. This is a distinction that all of us should be proud of as Pakistanis. Our ability to generate such profits is down to a highly motivated and hardworking group of people. None of this would have been possible if we had a culture that you have described in your blog.

I for one, certainly hope that the company continues to get rid of poor performers and may this trend of firing people on poor performance continue. I for one know that I will also have to remain totally focused and work hard if I want to continue growing in this organization.

I challenge you to go and talk to Ramiz Allawalla and let him tell you how good a company Mobilink is. From the millions of rupees that the company spends on employees like you, it shows how much of a poor attitude you have. Employees like you are scums for the company–people who are ungrateful for everything the company has done for them. I used to work in a Fortune 500 company in the US, and I can easily say that the types of perks and incentives that Mobilink gives and the way the company takes care of its people, even companies abroad do not do that.

I suggest that you quit the company because we dont need people like you over here. And once you leave the company, I bet you wont find a company like Mobilink who bothered to invest their time and effort in making you a mature and competent professional. Shame on you for being so ungrateful!!

I am also an employee of Mobilink, working in North region. People who are saying that the terminated employees were humiliated they are BADLY MISTAKEN, as I was I have witnessed everything, they were asked to leave in proper professional manner and things required to them were provided to them.

@ Current Mobilink Employees:

I am really surprised to see there comments about terminating and humiliating employees, basically they there self are BLACK SHEEPS. People who don’t work their self and are afraid that they will be kicked out comments like that.

We have so many examples that a company fires 100 and 1000′s of employee. Recent example is of Boeing Company.

One thing should we keep in mind that we work for an organization, we don’t own it so its part of JOB so accept it with open HEART.

So CHILL now.
