Aditya Birla Group

Even though the name is big, our branch at 142 Ashoka Road is a local affair. We deal with the day-to-day work here in Shidlaghatta. Most of the staff live nearby, so we walk or bike to work. The building is on a busy road, and things can get a bit loud with the traffic outside. We handle a lot of logistics and paperwork for the group's operations in this region. It’s not like those fancy corporate offices you see in the movies. Our desks are usually piled with files, and the tea man comes by twice a day which is the highlight for most of us. We have been operating from this Shidlaghatta address for a good number of years. There is a certain way we do things here that works for us. We don't spend much time on fancy meetings; we just get the tasks sorted and make sure the accounts are clear. It's a steady place to work. Sometimes the internet goes down or the power cuts out, and we just sit and chat until it comes back. That’s just how life is here. We know the shopkeepers on Ashoka Road, and they know us. It feels more like a small community than a giant company when you are actually inside these walls. We focus on the practical side of the business every single day without making a big deal out of it. There is always plenty to do and not enough hours.
