Hi Ravi,
I think to some extent u are right but not totally, as u are only thinking from technical point of view, yeah i agree that he has done a childish act to write a mail like this, as though he is writing to his freinds, but he must be left out with a warning note and not terminated. i hope he has done only this mail part, else if he has done anything else then we dont' know. and how was his attitude when he was being questioned in the MD's cabin. lot of things are involved, and sometimes we won't disclose all the things. i hope that his seniors were conversing in a professional manner when he was being taken into a room to speak about the mail.
and i hope all the best to this boy in future, and let him take this as a lesson in life, and he will not commit again such mistakes. he will surely going to get good work.
thanks and regards

Hi Everyone,
I think there was a mistake on the part of the New HR Guy as well. The introductory email by the new joinees is a good practice in itself. It is a breifing to the exitisng staff about your Qual & Exp. The seletcion of words were not reight on his part.
But i think the MD should have called the HR Head and breif on the same abou the email & his views on the same. So that the same could have been communicated to New HR Guy in all together a different maamer. Being a New person in the comapny he's not aware about the work culture.
I wish him all the best. He should find something soo.

Hi Friends,
In my openion the HR guy acted very childish. Still I believe the judgement is too harsh on him. Termination is always followed by a warnning letter. I have full sympathy with him but I would like to suggest to be more wise while communicating with others in future.

I agree with the comments of Ravi...
Though it is unfair to get him terminated for this reason, as an HR professional it is important for all of us to keep in mind the dos and donts of e-mail communication. As a new joinee, it is important to understand the culture of the organization first of all and then mould ourselves accordingly. Not all organizations are alike. It is always better to play it safe in the first few days....The first few days are the days of building rapport and trust in the right way. The right way may vary from organization to organization.
In case the person needs any help, he can drop his CV to

Hi All,
Introductory mail is a good practice. But in my opinion the guy should have been more careful with the language of the mail as he was sending it to all the seniors. It is really very foolish of a HR personnel to send such kind of introductory mail and marking a copy to all seniors without knowing the culture of the company because each and every organization has different work culture.
If the conversation quoted by CYRUS is the actual conversation between the MD and the guy then I must say the MD had over reacted. He could have at the most warned him or made the guy aware of the culture practiced there. But who knows during the closed door conversation between the duo the guy attitude was good enough?
I am sure this guy will get a good job soon and will definitely learn from this incident. It is a very common saying "Look before you leap".

Hi Cirus,
I am working in IT company. We have a process if some one join the company an introductry mail has to sent all employee. In that MD, CEO, Director, President US & UK are also involve. This process we have to follow strictly. An introductry mail from HR is the general process so that each & every employee may aware that new person has joined in the company.
In this case sehaviour of MD was not at all acceptable. He was just showing his frustation on you. I do have experience that senior person are not so rude once some one hase joined recently the company. MD is the Brand Ambessadar of the company. He has to be very soft & polite.
There is no scope of termination in such case. If he did not like the mail he should ignore that mail or should have call you in the cabin & should have ask to not to put such kind of mail to senior person. At that time a prior intimation to be their to understand the company culture.
Here agin as HR head should have told you about the company culture about senior behavior. Induction is very important of each employee so that avoid all such thing which is not good for him,
In any case termination is not the way. Their should be warning their to stop which is against to the policy or culture. Company has first check all the skill, Talent, Confidence then they have hired you & all of sudden their should not such unethical way.

Hi Cirus,
I am really surprised to know that such thing can happen with someone. whatever the case is this is definitely not the right way of Terminating an Employee. Don't they have some policies relating to that or what? Anyways i believe that whoever the person is he is really good with respect to his work & won't have 2 wait for 2 long 2 get a good job. Only thing he shud do is fight for his rights & we all are with you. Keep us updated.

Well friend,
Every one has his viewpoint, but let me tell you even though I am very very close personally with some of the Senior Officers in my office , still in office , I know where to draw a line between personal and professional life.
Actually you too should have thought before mailing this intro email..
But whatever happens happens for good. Sometimes HR do terminate with insufficient reason and sometimes the MD does as in your case.
Well be professional, there are other ways too to show your creativity and enthusiasm
dont take it to heart..
