Congratulations and Celebrations!

'Love your job but never fall in love with your company because you never know when the company stops loving you.' Narayanmurthy's well-known quote was almost an adage, circulating in the email boxes of contempraneous software engineers. But when has "love" ever been in control. Two and a half decades through, the Illustrious brand still raises almost patriotic thrills when we watch it glisten in eminent international contemporary tennis courts.

Infosys has not just been a company, an organization, or a brand in our life - it's an inextricable part of our daily routine ever since a young post-graduate IITian aced the test of infamous puzzles to unlock a career in the prestigious campus of the popular Hinjewadi Phase 1, Pune. Sitting on the steps with his cohort of new joiners, little did he anticipate he'd see this day - a momentous milestone of 25 years that clamours for heartfelt congratulations! 🎊 👏 

Congratulations Som on completing a laudable tenure, maturing with every passing year, and growing personally as the company was in ascendant at an extraordinary pace. 

You held the flagship mug of "1000 employee" at Hyderabad DC, worked at a panoply of client sites leaving Som-prints across the globe and hemispheres, and celebrated many successful implementations throughout your journey. 

As your spouse, when I pause to reflect and appreciate, I see the Infosys community that have been our extended family wherever we set up our abode. They are and will continue to be an integral portion of our memories, nostalgia, and bonds - raising our children together and seeing them walk through the doors of universities do forge unforgettable ties!

Our first home, first international travel, first experience of foreign land, first feel of fall and snow, first glimpse of the sails of Opera House - we thankfully attribute the opportunities to our association with Infosys along with your conscientious contributions towards your roles.

Without much ado, I'll summarise your journey in thi digital assembly of vibrant pieces of past and present that I'm sure will deluge you with happiness, gratification, and recollection of your key moments, fuelling you to propel through many more years at your cherished workplace.

That's a treasure trove encompassing a motley of emotions: composed at work, fun at project parties, celebrations of cultural events, cheering as colleagues tied knots, affection as they welcomed their newborns, and exhaustive commitment to high octane go-lives.

Cherry on the top? The pictures below say it all. As I threaded into the Infosys fabric in September 2022 and my son trained for a week at Westpac, the sense of belonging further accentuated!
