    Please do not settle in GIS. It sucks your energy and life. Its betterto join in any small company as a software programmer even if you get Rs/ 5000/- salary. because after you can get 20000 P/M easily. In india we are not even using 2% of GIS technology. It will take atleast 20 years to be able to use 20% of GIS in india. I have got 10 years of GIS exp. Indian GIS companies, use man power where we don’t use brain. even a 10th pass/fail person can do the work of what a M.Tech Remote sensing guy or gal would do.
    Hence I request all highly talented people opt for software else, study MBA.

    Hello Mr. Mishra

    You seem to be a knowledgeable person. I have a question for you. I am in the US and have been using a GPS system since last 3 years. India is highly techno driven but there are no companies working in that area as per my knowledge. I heard about Genesys International and see that that company is promoted by some financial guys like Sajid Malik.

    When will I be able to buy true GPS systems and maps for India?

    I think you also work for Genesys international? Why did you join such a small company instead of RMSI?
