Novartis India Pvt Ltd., Hyderabad is full of really bad politics. The work culture is horrible, efficient ones are demoralized and inefficient ones (if pally if bosses) are encouraged!!

This is a very nice move to help the industry in India.

One cannot help but see that Indians clamoring to work for Novartis will be swayed from working in the local businesses and then of course indoctrinated toward the “western” philosophy of charging exorbitant sums of money for the work they do. Which, of course the government of India cannot afford to subsidize.

So, we can only hope that in parallel with this program the government can try to do more for their own people. The problem is that India’s high rate of population, fragile government and other extenuating circumstances will make it difficult for the government of India to respond the pressure.

However, if Novartis trains and allows the drugs discovered and made in India to stay in India at a low price that the market can bear, then, and only then, will this be a good thing.

Otherwise, good ideas, wrong intentions still equal very bad karma for Vasella. And Dan, you’ve collected a lot of really bad karma over the last few years…
