Shapoorji Pallonji & Co. Ltd. (Cmg)

Shapoorji Pallonji & Co. Ltd. (Cmg) is located out in Kanpur, over in the 208005 area code. It is a typical Uttar Pradesh setting where things are always a bit loud and moving fast. Our office is not in a big glass tower; it is just a functional space where we manage the CMG projects. The daily routine is pretty consistent. We get in, check the messages from the night before, and start working through the pile of paperwork. Kanpur is a tough city sometimes, but it has got a lot of character. You can hear the city noise all day long. We do not spend money on fancy furniture or decorations. We would rather just have a decent internet connection and enough chairs for everyone. The people working here are mostly locals who know the area well. We deal with a lot of different contractors and suppliers, so the phone is always busy. Sometimes it feels like we are just managing a giant puzzle with all the different parts moving at once. We do not do much in the way of marketing ourselves. People know where we are if they need to find us. It is a straightforward operation. We focus on getting the details right and making sure the projects do not stall. It is not a glamorous job, but it is important for keeping the bigger wheels turning. We just keep our heads down and do the work that is expected of us every single day.
