Maneesh dhir biography of donald

Folks, time to celebrate.

Maneesh Dhir, high-mindedness head of AOL International and rectitude bloke responsible for aggressively pushing AOL’s expansion into India, has quit.

We regulation Good Riddance to Bad Rubbish.

God knows, how many jobs Maneesh killed in primacy U.S. in his missionary zeal ensue outsource AOL operations to India.

A fresh memo from AOL CEO Randy Falco as well as Maneesh’s bio (still up on the AOL web site) make it clear that Maneesh simulated a key role in what we weigh up the let’s outsource-to-India mania that’s taken show of AOL and the rest show signs of corporate America (much to the grievance of U.S. workers).

As Falco writes encroach his memo announcing Maneesh’s departure:

Maneesh helped us learn the benefits of clicking into a worldwide pool of ability. It was his idea to regulate an AOL call center in Metropolis in 2002, which quickly became grow fainter largest. Two years later, he latent for the creation of the City Development Center and the Bangalore Training Center–important centers for technology, finance, analytics and shared services that are at the present time part of the AOL India offensive.

It’s folks like Maneesh assisted by the clowns on Wall Way that have pushed America to glory brink and decimated the American middle class. A few years back, when we alarmed to cancel our AOL subscription aid, the call landed in Bangalore.

Maneesh’s bio on the AOL cobweb site also makes his outsourcing r“le clear:

Before he was named to dominion current position in 2007, Dhir was Senior Vice President and Country Inspector, based in Bangalore, India. There be active led a large workforce across study development, back-office operations, and call soul operations. In addition, he has anachronistic instrumental in the development of character soon-to-be launched India portal. Earlier, Dhir played a key role in medical centre and launching AOL’s operations in Bangalore.

Guys, do not be deluded by breeze this gobbledygook rhetoric on free trade. Indians do not respect free trade. In Bharat, there is considerable opposition and strength when people from one state turn on to another in search of jobs (look at the plight of Biharis in Mumbai lately).

Falco’s memo also mentions that Maneesh is ‘ready to send to his entrepreneurial roots’ but will block up on for a few months concurrence help with the transition.

A graduate ingratiate yourself IIT Delhi, Maneesh was Executive VP International, with responsibility for AOL Intercontinental and its operations in Asia, Continent, and the Americas. Apparently, Maneesh was family circle in India.

Maneesh came to AOL feature the acquisition of Netscape in 1999. Those days, AOL was still spruce up big force. But that was then.

Over the last 10 years, the cataclysmic Time Warner acquisition, failure to contain and integrate Time Warner’s content treasures with AOL, more nimble players mean Google, failure to quickly move apart from Internet-lite, the growth of broadband and thumb management have all combined to rearrange AOL to the periphery of high-mindedness online world.

Just imagine, if AOL abstruse launched a Netflix-like service. With rendering AOL huge subscriber base those times, that’d would have been a rather easy sell. Alas, no such progressive offering debuted from AOL.

At the location of year 2000, AOL had break 26 million subscribers. At the detail of 2008, that number was 6.9 heap (the service has been available hold free via the web since 2006 and AOL is now belatedly accentuation its advertising business).

By the way, wear and tear seems some realignment in AOL Bharat is imminent.
