Why are there more suicides in Infosys

Stress taking its toll in IT Industry

More and more suicides are reported from Narayan Murthy founded Infosys - The IT Bellwether of India

Most of the times the blame is on stress. Can a company with around 100,000 employees handle stress in a different way.

When I spoke on this issue with some in IT Community, they told that it was not Infy that kills people, it is their immediate superioirs who keep the pressure on sub-ords. The sub-ords mostly young are unable to handle the pressure and simply take the extreme step.

Though the above argument has some meat, still the superiors are Infosys (or generally any other company's) employees and they have to be trained to handle the stress and not to pass on.

Don't forget that there were more cases of sucides by Program managers and Project Managers ... Whom to blame?
