Kirloskar Pneumatic Co. Ltd.

We are located out in Saswad in the Purandhar taluka of Pune district. It’s a bit of a trek if you’re coming from the main city, but it’s quieter out here which is nice for a change. The air is a bit different than the city center. We spend our days working with pneumatic equipment and big machinery that makes a lot of whistling and thumping noises. The floor is usually covered in some kind of oil or metal shavings by noon, so we have to be careful where we step. Most of the staff here are locals from the surrounding villages who have been with us for years. We know the routines inside out and don't really need someone telling us what to do every five minutes. Sometimes the supply trucks take forever to get through the rural roads, especially during the monsoon when things get muddy. We just deal with it as it comes. We have a small canteen where we get our tea and snacks, and that’s usually where all the shop talk happens. It’s hard work and your clothes usually end up pretty dirty by the time the shift ends. We don't have any fancy decorations on the walls, just some old calendars and safety charts that have been there forever. It’s a solid place to work if you don't mind getting your hands dirty and staying busy until the whistle blows at five.
