Moonlighting vs Consulting: What Indian IT Companies Can Actually Fire You For — the three-line test that separates a fireable offense from a legal career asset.
Wipro fired 300 employees over moonlighting. Infosys sent “No Double Lives” warnings. But almost nobody actually knows where the line is — this video draws it precisely: what counts as a competing business, what counts as using your employer’s resources, and when disclosure protects you instead of exposing you.
If you’re a mid-career IT professional building a consulting income, a personal brand, or a second income stream on the side, this is the one video to watch before you go any further.
Comment “LINE” and I’ll personally look at your specific situation.
