Expatriate Employees

On the same day, coming across two non-Indians working in India for two totally unrelated companies - that too on a professional basis - is rare.

One belongs to a construction materlial company of Austria, based on Bangaluru and the other was a United states based company making burners.

The difference was that earlier, we would only see the "foreigners  come to India on a sales visit to sell their outdated  products to developing Indian market.

Now, we see them working in India, sweating like anyone else - may not be the latest but surely not outdated  products  - managing or working for companies making products made for India and made in india.

The trend started with automobile industries - hoping to encash on the growing middle class market of iNDIA (as it happened in china) - IT is surely a happy trend to see this happening in construction and engineering as well.
