If God was a Banker by Ravi Subramanian!

The book is an eye-opener to the reality behind the corporate working culture of international banks. Really, this book will leave you with a feeling of bitterness of the way the ambitions are achieved at the cost of integrity and values.

Those who are working in the corporate environment or are aware of the work culture there will not be bothered, but for people like me who are just having no paths crossed across the corporate lanes(and I really thank God for it!) is something, what to say general awareness kind of thing:).

I will appreciate Ravi Subramanian style of writing. Story is certainly not having loose breaks in between. You just want to finish the whole story in one go. You cannot just leave it. It really excites you and you can relate to it at some places. Character of Sundeep, Swami,,Aditya are build very strongly and author has done justice to every character.Rising the ladder of success by losing ones integrity and values can never help you to achieve success in life. That’s the crux of the story. Honesty is really the best policy in world, and that applies to banking culture also. The story reflects the  struggle of power , status, ambitions in the competitive banking scenario as the background.

The other reason why I liked the story was it high-lites the plight of working women. What challenges women have to face in their working environment, how they are being  abused and exploited by their bosses and how they are strong enough to face such oddities of work culture and come out a winner. Author has really put effort to bring out all female characters strongly. At certain places you feel woman herself  is responsible for her exploitation as she uses her femininity to climb the ladder of success.

Hats off to Ravi Subramanian to bring out such a splendid story to us!
