CTOnews.com, Oct. 27 (Xinhua) recently, the culture of "part-time" is similar to China's 996 culture, causing controversy among a number of big Internet companies in India.

Last month, Wipro fired 300 employees who worked overtime (working for competitors), and the company's chairman tweeted that part-time work was a fraud. He has no objection to employees taking a second job, but wants to be more transparent.

N Ganapathy Subramaniam, chief operating officer of Tata Consulting Services, also believes that part-time work is a moral issue, saying it is a culture of "trading short-term gains for long-term pain".

IBM India now announces that employees can find themselves part-time jobs, Sandip Patel, the company's managing director, said in an email to employees that they can enjoy their passions as long as they do not sacrifice IBM. CTOnews.com cautioned that he did not explain the criteria for such behavior.

If not explained in detail, the concept of part-time work will cause a lot of confusion, which is why I am writing to you.

He told employees that the company values their passions, but should also remember whether their passions conflict with IBM's interests.

At IBM, our position has always been clear: we encourage everyone in IBM to devote themselves to their work. Your passion for art, dance or music is recognized here, and in this spirit, we are happy to see you pursue your own interests.

However, if you promote personal interests directly or indirectly at the expense of IBM, it will be regarded as a serious conflict of interest and a violation of trust.

"if it's gray, please stay away or clarify," Patel stressed.
