I live in Pune - small, crowded and strangely mismanaged by the civic authorities. Its like they love certain parts of the city and hate others !
I leave office late since it helps me evade all the traffic. Unlike Mumbai - pune has small narrow roads that turn every 50 mts. Putting a 60ft bus on these roads would not make sense. I can understand why PMC cant change their ways - but all the large ITES guys - Infosys, Patni, Cognizant, Capgemini, have the same large buses carrying handful of their employees across the city.
What amazes me is the sheer negligence on the part of the transportation department in these companies. If their head just spends 2 hours extra every month in office, he will be able to see this problem, get smaller buses on a lease and increase the frequency. Not only will they save money on diesel, the time spent moving the large beasts across the city reduces and helps achieve the ultimate goal - improve employee satisfaction.
But unlike other parts of the globe, we Indians dont always take pride in being a part of the organization. People jump jobs hoping to get a better package and better work atmosphere. Its no longer about the vision - its only about the pay package.
