On August 20, 2022, Rishad Premji, chairman of the IT company Wipro, wrote on Twitter: “There is a lot of chatter about people moonlighting in the tech industry. This is cheating – plain and simple.”
In September 2022 he told a management convention that Wipro had “discovered 300 people in the last few months” who were working for a competitor while employed by Wipro. The company fired them. Premji called it a “complete violation of integrity in its deepest form,” Business Today reported.
