We are located out in Ambegaon, near Post Urawade in the Mulshi taluka. It’s quite a way out from the main Pune city, so it’s much quieter here. We are surrounded by a bit of greenery, which is nice when the rains come and everything turns bright green. The office is a practical space. We don’t have fancy elevators or a canteen. Most of us bring our own food or walk down the road to get something simple from the local stalls. We work on technical projects that require a lot of concentration. Because we’re a bit isolated, we’ve grown to be a tight-knit group. There’s no corporate hierarchy feel here. If the roof leaks or a computer dies, we all pitch in to figure it out. It’s a very different vibe from the big IT parks in Hinjewadi. We like the peace and quiet because it helps us get through the heavy workload. Sometimes we see cows wandering past the gate, which you definitely don’t get in the city. We don’t talk about global reach or innovative solutions. We just say we’re going to do a task and then we do it. It’s a bit dusty in the summer and muddy in the monsoon, but it’s our place. We’ve been here long enough that the local villagers know us by face. It’s just a small office doing its work in a quiet corner of Pune district.
