Our spot is up on the seventh floor of Ivory Court III inside Essel Towers. Being right on M G Road in Gurgaon means there is always something going on outside. The view from the windows is mostly just other tall buildings and the constant stream of cars below. It’s a decent place to be based. We spend our hours here dealing with the day-to-day work that keeps the lights on. It’s not a very big team, but we manage. Sometimes the elevators take forever, which is a bit of a pain when you’re in a hurry. We’ve set up the desks in a way that makes sense for how we actually work, rather than how a designer might want it to look. There’s a lot of paper around sometimes, and maybe a few too many half-empty tea mugs, but it’s a real working environment. We don’t really go in for those big corporate speeches. We just show up, do what we need to do, and head home when the sun goes down. Most of us have been around here for a while now, so we know the local lunch spots pretty well. The atmosphere is quiet for the most part, unless we’re all trying to figure out a problem at the same time. It works for us. Living and working in Gurgaon can be a lot, but having this base in Essel Towers makes it manageable. We keep extra pens in the drawer because they always go missing and someone always forgets their lunch in the fridge.
